I'll fix the SSL stuff on the old site and put up a message that the app has moved. The move was supposed to be a surprise, and I screwed it up!

[ottyacat]

Oh no.. Well still cool thanks for all your efforts. PS I'm not sure how to test reorderibg the categories. I have tried just dragging, click and hold but not sure what's i am missing.

[asromzek]

If you tap and hold for a least a half second, you should be able drag & drop to reorder or move categories. If I remember correctly, you're using Android? If so, what browser?

Edit: Also, if you tap the menu button in the top left and then go to the About menu, what version of the app does it say is running?

[ottyacat]

0.4.24

Ok yea that's what I have been trying, I actually got it to work once but now it's not working at all.

You remembered correctly, android, chrome browser.

[asromzek]

I have noticed some odd behavior while testing with Chrome on Windows while running the website in "mobile mode". If you refresh the mobile app, does it work once and then stop working until refreshing again?

[ottyacat]

No not really, well it did once and then subsequent refreshes are still not working. Its quite random like one in 20 or 30 attempts will work.

[asromzek]

It looks like the drag & drop functionality is disabled once you scroll the category list, at least in Chrome. If I refresh the page and very carefully click and hold on a category without scrolling first, reordering is possible, and repeatable. As soon as I scroll the list, drag & drop no longer works. This will be a "fun" one to sort out, if possible.

[ottyacat]

Ahh yea i see what you mean, I chucked it into dev mode on my desktop and it behaviours exactly like you say in chrome. I have tried it on my mobile countless times but maybe my fingers are just not accurate enough to trigger it without a scroll. It indeed sounds like it will be a challenge

Alight @ottyacat, give v0.4.25 a shot and let me know if it's cooperating now.

Alight @ottyacat, give v0.4.25 a shot and let me know if it's cooperating now.

Ok so no difference on my Nexus 5X ive tried in the browser directly and via a homescreen icon, same thing. But it's working fine on my Samsung tablet, very strange!

[asromzek]

Is it possible get the version of Chrome you're running on your Nexus 5X, and this is probably a dumb question, but did you make sure to refresh the app and verify that v0.4.25 is loaded? I know some older version of Chrome had some bugs with touch gestures and stuff like that.

By the way, I'm downloading an Android emulator now...

[ottyacat]

It's the latest one available from the play store (63) I think.

I did do a refresh and make sure the version said 0.4.25 u fortunately there is a beta version of Chrome. I will give that a shot

[asromzek]

After doing a lot of research tonight, it looks like Android has a number of issues with drag & drop in a variety of situations. I'm going to have to table this until I can get a good emulator up and running, and/or get my hands on an Android phone once and for all. The joys of web development!

[ottyacat]

Indeed and I guess that confirms at least I'm not going mad

[asromzek]

@ottyacat, would you be able to test with Firefox on your phone to see if it’s an issue specific to Chrome?
