Default Forum Issue with Latest iPhone Update

Ever since I updated my IOS version, the Corvette Forum link (bookmark on Home Screen) in Safari doesn’t work right. It’s missing the buttons on the bottom. (See attached photo)

I tried to create another bookmark but I get the same results. Basically, I can’t go back while browsing. I have to start another page over again.

This is an issue more to do with your iphone (specifically iOS) and not CorvetteForum so our support is limited. It's a behavior from iOS/Apple and so support from them is the best solution.

In short, your bookmark is not opening in a full-mode Safari browser. See the link below for a possible workaround:

Great info. I'll try this. Thanks!

Update: This does work, but it still requires the same amount of browsing steps to get to the desired page within the forum. It behaves the same way as adding a bookmark in Safari and opening it from there.

I don't think there's anything CorvetteForum can do about that as that's more on iOS/Apple and how it works. How iOS/Apple deals with bookmarks, shortcuts on the Home page, are beyond CorvetteForum, if that makes sense, as CorvetteForum has no control over that function.

I totally understand it’s an IOS thing. I appreciate the support.
