Thanks Russ. Not sure if I was particularly clear in the last post - when I hit the 'Archive' button that appears alongside any competed game under the 'Actions' column in any non-Inbox folder, nothing happens; moving completed games from Inbox into any other folder doesn't appear to be an issue - I've done that a couple of times today without any problems. What I'm effectively trying to do is move completed games from the Archive folder into other folders I've completed - they don't want to shift over. Tried it several times and I have the latest software on iPad.
Thanks for the update, Russ. Looks fabulous on desktop, but I have a couple of issues on mobile.
I have a Galaxy Light, an android device.
The first time on mobile I clicked on my Avatar on the menu and got the menu with all the 'My' stuff on it. On desktop, this is across the top of the screen, so no scrolling necessary, but on mobile, this menu is one item wide and extends past the bottom of my screen, but I cannot scroll it (the menu) to get to the bottom, I have to scroll the entire screen, took a while to figure out as I didn't expect that.
I did not check out the Games page yet, but the same issue people are having with each game taking up too much space is the same problem I have with Forums on mobile. Each message takes up so much vertical room that I am scrolling all day to see everything. How about one line per message, like on desktop? Also, I hold my phone in Landscape when reading messages so I can more easily read the type size, but still, messages in list mode take up too much room, I'd appreciate one line per message like on desktop. In lieu of all this, an option to see the desktop version instead of the mobile version would be appreciated very much.
On iPhone; when i get to a board i have to scroll down below the whole menu, to see if there was a piece taken with last move. Obviously i have to do that every single time. This constant scrolling is not fun.... it was much nicer before, to simply see if there was a piece taken.... main thing is to play chess, not to scroll through text....
Russ i am so sorry. You put so much work into this, but i am having big problems. Could you please give me a path how to find the ladders, if we still have them? I can only find the 21 TO ladder only because i have a game going. Please, HOW can i see the ladder like before, meaning HOW can i navigate through the ladder without having to scroll all 340 + players? There is all this information that i really don't need.... just show name and number of the player like before..... I like to see who is in the ladder near me....
Originally posted by Flower04You did need to click the title of the ladder, but on reflection, this is inconsistent with similar "panels" elsewhere, so the button has been added back to the right of the ladder.

This might have been answered already, but where's the little widget gone that allows you to wait for a move in any game?
edit : The option to "wait for any game" still exists on the board views though after your move.

Hey Russ, I just noticed that when replying to PMs, the quoting what came before is now totally gone. Must we now copy and paste what we want to respond to when replying now?
Originally posted by RussI need a real path please. I do not find the ladders anymore; i found it per accident once. I am tired of scrolling and scrolling through useless text.

Just to reiterate that it no longer seems possible to archive completed inbox games to anything other than the default 'Archive' folder. Before the latest update, you were given a choice of folders to archive completed games. Now when you hit the 'Archive' button at the end of a game, completed games default to the Archives folder. Done it a few times now and it's definitely not working on iPad.
