Manga Reader Feedback/Bugs
-
I decided to create a new topic for this, to avoid cluttering the one for general website bugs
A few things I noticed:
- Reader does not work on Firefox for Android. Chrome based browsers appear to work on Android.
- No pinch to zoom on mobile, that one would be nice. Zooming via double tap works, but I have no idea how to undo the zoom
- If you click on the forum button, you are directed to the main forum, instead of the topic thread
- Going back and forward in the history causes an error because the token becomes invalid
In general I'm pretty happy with the reader though, significantly better than Crunchyroll's flash solution at least.

@Jaquobus Thanks, I was going to make a thread like this myself. Here is what I already have in store for the reader, which mostly covers your problems:

Edit: Also you should be able to undo the zoom by double tapping again on mobile, for now. And the forum button top-left is meant to be that way, maybe it should be changed. You can access the forum discussion for the chap on the last page if one has been set

Yea, not working on Firefox is pretty big for me. :-\ It's kind of my default browser.
-
@aruseus493 try opening the link in a new tab that worked for me
-
@catstorm
Nope, didn't work for me.
-
@aruseus493 Just to check we're talking about mobile right?
-
@chocolatkey I'm on desktop.
-
@Aruseus493 Ok.. that is strange then. If we are talking about FF on desktop, it's always worked fine in my tests
-
It might be useful to have a zoom in/out button on the bar (or on double click?) for desktop browsing. It took me a little while to figure out I had to put the reader into single page mode and then manually zoom my browser in and out and you can't seem to zoom at all on 2 page mode as it automatically scales.
-
It might just be something with a plugin I have or something. I have another weird issue where the close x doesn't appear when you open the little message/chat window. I can still click it to close, but there's no button visually for me.
-
Yeah, I can't read it in Firefox. I disabled all addons, so not that.
It just sits there a sec, then goes to https://j-novel.club/mc/error/E6601/<really long string I'm removing in case it has account details in it>
-
@dtta I'm using Firefox (Desktop) and the manga reader seems to be loading fine, but I'm using an older release so not sure if that might have something to do with it.
-
For me, what happens on Firefox desktop is that I click on Read Now, and it just sits there unresponsive, no matter how many times I click.
However, if I click Read Now and then refresh the page, the manga reader shows up upon page refresh and works fine.
-
@unsynchedcheese I had a similar experience but I got it to work when I right clicked on read now and selected open in new tab.
-
@dtta The string will not have any account details in it. I would like it though because it has the error message...
-
@raddevlin You should be able to zoom in on single/spread mode by double clicking. If you have a device with a keyboard, '+' and '-' work along with '0' for resetting zoom. Pinch to zoom on touch screens is being worked on. I'll think about an icon
-
For me it doesn’t work with the base internet app on Android, it just keep loading without displaying anything.

@crimson-wise said in Manga Reader Feedback/Bugs:

Java: Write once, run everywhere
