I am having weird scroll issues in Safari on iOS 26, that I didn’t have before the update.
In the thread overview inside a forum, scrolling occasionally stops all of a sudden. Or when changing the direction, it is acting all weird, stops scrolling or jumping up and down and then stops.

It occurs only in the thread overview though. Not inside a thread and not in the forum list.

😵‍💫
This happens to me whenever I click on any thread or sub-forum and scroll down. It stops and I have to try and scroll again. It doesn't happen on forum list for me either

@arn Facing an issue. When clicking on 'Media' under profile name to access all media/photos added by the user, I see media/photos added by other users as well, i.e, there are media items of other users in my profile.

You mean this view?


I only see your media. Can you post a screenshot?

Can see other users media items when scrolling back around 25 pages. All recent items don’t have any issues. Attaching some screenshots from Page 23, 24, 35, 37 under my Media items showing other users media. There are many other pages too that show media items of others. Pages 85 to 87 are having media items entirely by others.

Gotcha. Seems like an indexing issue. Let me rebuild the indexes for the media gallery and search and see if that fixes it.

Thanks for the quick reply. Some pages have media items entirely by others.

I believe I fixed it. It looks like a bug in an unrelated addon. I've disabled that, and it seems it's better.

Possible related to this, or maybe not, and asked elsewhere without response; How does trending work? I've noticed that it doesn't reflect what is 'actually' trending on the site, which I would assume would be, how many comments have been made, over how many views. As this is the default page that visitors/guests to the site first see, and also members, if they have not customised their setting to direct elsewhere. Seems like the so called 'trending' threads, aren't really trending at all.
 
@arn Just noticed that dimensions of photo uploads are now limited to 2000px (width). Is this a permanent change due to forum upgrade, or some kind of bug/issue? Used to upload images of 4032px x 3024px and even 5000px x 3750px in the Photo of the Day forums in the past (upto January 31st 2026).

Not intentional. Was there no limit before in dimensions?

The limit is set to 2000 pixels in either dimension. With over a million attachments in our database, you can imagine they take up a good amount of storage space.

I will defer to @arn about whether the size limit might be increased, but at least for inline display in threads, 2000px is certainly sufficient.

From this 2023 post it looks like it was set to 2000.

Trending looks like it got a little stuck. Tweaking it.

@arn When trying to download a media item which has been uploaded (from 'Media' tab under profile name), it does not download in the proper format.

Media items are downloaded as following with naming: _media_img_2495-jpeg.1081994_full instead of being a .jpeg/.jpg file. The image cannot be opened without changing the file type to .jpeg

Seems a strange Safari specific issue. Chrome works. I'll take a look.

Sorry to hijack this thread, although it may be related. But I note, despite using the hide political forums preference, pages like this still exist https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/political-news.218/, should they not be blocked?

I sadly got locked out a few weeks back, as the discussion got heated, achieved all my strikes in 10 mins, and now have to sit a minimum of 1 year out (bit harsh in my view) Thought adding that preference, on top of what happens when you don't have access to PRSI forums, would remove them. But don't know if that is part of the recent changes.
