Hi,

As the title says really, how can I do bold text in these forums using an iPad?

Toby · ‎21-01-2014

Hi guys,

Just to update on this.

After speaking to Lithium, it appears that the mobile/tablet/desktop view is available on a device-by-device basis. Some are able to be programmed to cater to the desktop version of the community and some are not. This can also apply to certain generations of the same device.

I intend to submit an idea on the lithium dev site to see if we can get this sorted for those of you who cannot use the desktop view on your tablet.

Sorry about this!

Click on the B above the text box.

Unless of course an Apple feature prevents it showing!

I seem to remember people saying you don't get the rich text format options on iOS ?

That's the problem. There isn't a B above the text box on an iPad - there's just a text box. Eek.

I remembered correctly then

Looks like the way to do bold text on an iPad is to use a desktop browser

@Toby - Do you know a different way?

we used to have it but there were issues and we lost rich text and the quote option on ios devices.

@Toby can this be revisited the quote funcionality is sorely missed

Hey Colonel_K

If you're on iOS7, go to: settings > general > accessibility > bold text

Let me know how you get on

EDIT: Unless you mean within the forum?
