FTF not working on iOS devices

So this has been going on for several months and I was hoping it would iron itself out but it's not getting fixed. I can't reliably browse the forum from my iPhone or iPad... About 95% of the time when I click on new posts or Today's Posts I get this message:

Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

If I immediately switch over to a computer it works and there are tons of posts-- switch back to iOS devices and no posts again. This happens on Trista's iPhone/iPad as well. Did you guys change something a few months ago?

Unnecessary. It's clearly an issue with the site, iOS devices have a very capable mobile browser-- please no Apple bashing in this thread.

Does it do this on your apple desktop or just the I devices?
What browser are you using on the desktop?
Post more detailed info and I will do my best to find a soultion

Did wan't to delete cookies and browser data but in the interest of getting this resolved I went ahead and did it on my phone-- its working now here from work but I seem to see it working here fairly often anyway. I'll try it at home later-- that's where I usually have issues.

I don't have the iPhone Chris, but I have the same issues at my own home when I use my phone...it automatically searches for my network and that is when I get a "403 Forbidden"..as soon as I switch the wireless off, it works.

Wonder if it's related to a similar issue I (and others) had, and may still have, with IE 9.

Thread here.

I actually just hopped from my blackberry and initially it said 'sorry no new posts'...I logged out and logged back in and it showed the new posts.

No issues with my iPhone, I always make sure to log off, then the screen says all cookies cleared. When I log back in, new posts are shown, also any that I have not read. The site operates exactly the same as on the home computer. It's great, just don't know the long term effects of looking at a small screen :scratch:
