twocats β sorry for the delayed reply. On both my phone and iPad, @navindra βs instructions work (quickly tapping on the right and then immediately tapping the check mark). I think when I initially tried this, I wasnβt understanding the instruction and was doing something wrong, but as Iβve used it more, Iβve figured it out. Itβs not very intuitive, but at some point I caught on!
Tips & tricks for using this forum
Moving Your Thread to a Different Category
If you're the owner of a thread (you were the person who started it) and decided later that you posted in the wrong category, you don't need to bother the moderators to move it!
Simply click on the three vertical dots in the top right corner (at least on mobile) and click "Edit Tags". Then remove the current tag and select the new one, and the post will appear in the new subforum.
Recover Drafts
First make sure that "Draft Autosave" is enabled from Profile -> Settings.
If you're in the middle of writing something and then click away and your draft is gone (so frustrating, right??), you can find it in the Drafts area by going to the Homepage and clicking at the top left (on mobile). A list of all your unfinished posts will be there!

Gombessa twocats Noted. Will keep an eye out for this one. I have some guesses on what might be going on... I can try to repro and report it back.
Also this prompted me to take a quick backup.

Josephine It goes back to the previous page you were on when you refresh the page? How are you refreshing the page?
I think Flarum tries to refresh content dynamically and there are ways of making that work better that are more expensive in terms of server resources. I suspect FreeFlarum has made some optimizations to lessen the load that may be causing some of these bugs.
It's just speculation on my part though. There are some other avenues to investigate.

When I go to the home page (on my phone) there is often an arrow in the left top corner, and when I want to log out I first have to refresh the page to make those 3 lines appear. So I refresh the page by clicking the icon for refreshing a page in my browser (Firefox). And often it works, but sometimes I go back to the previous page instead.
Josephine Oh interesting. This sounds familiar, I think it may have been previously reported. Will try it on my phone and see what's going on.

Maybe it's Firefox, and not this forum? I also have some problems with other websites when I use Firefox.

from my laptop, I have had some luck with searching for emoji by keywords. Other times I go over to FB, find the one I want and copy it.
ETA from my phone or iPad, I just use the emoji keyboard.

How to make text smaller (by raising/lowering)
Found out by accident, but it works only for single words. A blank ends the effect:
^Upper ^word -> Upper word (like E=mc^2 -> E=mc2) the great formula of Edvard Grieg
~Lower ~word -> Lower word (like B~b -> Bb)
The gold star? I came over from brand X.
