AppleInsider's newly redesigned mobile forums now live
AppleInsider and Huddler have been hard at work updating the mobile forums for our readers, and we are pleased to announce that as of Friday the new redesign is live.Forum members can access the refreshed layout by navigating to the bottom of the main forums page on their mobile devices and clicking on the "Mobile" button. To toggle back to the traditional view, simply click on the "Desktop" button.
Our forum moderator Tallest Skil has started a thread regarding the changes made in the mobile redesign, and members are encouraged to click here to offer feedback and comments.
The new mobile forums gives readers a cleaner, mobile-centric view that is more in line with the overall AppleInsider site design. Our goal was to create a seamless transition between the mobile frontpage and forums so that casual readers and stalwart forum members alike would feel at home browsing content on either page.
We hope you enjoy the new layout as much as we do, and look forward to your feedback.

For the life of me I cannot find that toggle switch on my iPhone 4 ... I'm still looking at the old desktop view 
I captured a screen shot to show you but I can't seem to upload or paste that for you either.
I'm logged in and don't see the mobile option at all.
That was the fastest beta testing I've ever been involved with.
couldn't be able to open mobile version forum for iPhone. can u give me the link where I can open the mobile version forum? I'm on iPhone 5.
The toggle is at the bottom of every page, in the footer.
If it's not yet visible, well... the mobile site might not yet be active to non-beta testers. Should be fixed shortly.
It's not on the page itself, I'm on iPhone 4, need to have it automatic.

What does your mobile site URL look like?

The same.
So if people aren't seeing the toggle, you're not going to be able to get there manually. And that just means it's not live for everyone yet.
Additionally, if you have tabs open in the desktop (or vice versa) and you then switch to mobile in a newer tab, no changes you make in the older tabs will commit. You'll have to reload. Lost a post once doing that...
Still not there. What about the beta, is the public coming soon.

It's actually pretty good! I hope a few features slip over to the desktop version of the forums, such as one-button multiquoting.
Maybe since we have an article thread about the redesign itself, it would be okay to post any comments, complaints, or bugs you find here, as well. But splitting things up always becomes a mess... If you have a concrete idea for improvement, post it in the thread in Feedback. This thread can then be designated for the simple "I hate it"/"I love it" comments.
