Pimax forum corrupted on iOS Safari (workaround: use dark theme)

Is anyone else seeing this kind of UI corruption on the Pimax forums when using iOS Safari? Been going on for more than a week now and makes it so, that settings and messages cannot be accessed as the relevant buttons are overlayed by the top banner.

This happens both on mobile as well as desktop view.

Yup. I found notifications can be accessed by entering a topic (this means the banner menu scrolls away when scrolling down). Scrolling down will also scroll your profile access away, but scrolling back up a smidge will return it. As long as you’re not so close to the top of the page to also invoke the banner menu. Man, that took way too long to say.

Not my topic/post, but it has been broken for around a week now. Only thing is to do @MartyPouwelse suggestion, which does work but is kinda annoying to do all the time

The Dark theme fixes this interface issue atm. In mobile & desktop.

The team has been made aware. But the dark theme doesn’t have the over laid extra buttons.

Side swipes on Android work for topic Categories & notifications.

How do I enable the dark theme?

same here can not get to my profile menu or pimax menu

Log in from a different browser or device , then change the theme.
@twack3r I’ll add the workaround to the topic if you don’t mind

I’m sorry for being imprecise. I meant where can I find the setting to enable dark theme?

Edit: @TrevorVR I don’t mind at all, please do and thanks!

You can thank @Enopho for looking into this issue:

He found the source of the problem with the light theme.
The dark theme works because it is actually running the desktop version.

True, I should have mentioned that in my post.

Please be aware that Pimax have confirmed to the community leaders that they will be releasing new mobile themes in the next couple of weeks… In the mean time those of you having issues with the ‘light’ mobile theme, please follow the instructions above as a temp fix.

Many thanks

If you are on the light theme and can’t change to dark because your profile top right can’t be clicked… Try this.

Click on a topic in the forum, as in… Don’t change it when in the forum home.
Then scroll down until the top navigation menu dissappears and you can click on your profile icon, then you can change it to dark theme… Remember to save!
