I have noticed that the code block in a forum post has a width of 600px according to CSS in
Yafmobile/theme.css file. As a result, when viewing a forum post page on a mobile phone there is unnecessary horizontal scroll added to the page that spoils the layout on a mobile device especially when all other elements on the same page are fitting the device width perfectly.
To resolve this, I used a simple CSS fix that will work across all modern browsers and for IE9 or greater. The below CSS needs to be pasted into the CSS file at
Yafmobile/theme.css. I feel this should be fixed since its an easy fix and it enhances mobile experience of end user.
The before and after videos of how the code window looks like can be seen at following url's.
/*make code div not occupy higher width than mobile device width*/
.yafnet div.code div, .yafnet div.code {
max-width: 85vw;
}

Reason: added before and after videos, so the effect of using CSS is very clear
Thanks will be inculded with the next update!
For very small devices like iphone 5/SE some horizontal scroll appears on these devices even when using a max-width of 85vw. To prevent this, some default styles in
Yafmobile/theme.css.file need to be commented as mentioned in CSS below.
On mobile devices, there is no need for padding-left of 16px or margin of 5px when styling .yafnet .code element, hence they have been commented. Also, on mobile devices there is no need for width of 600px, which has also been commented.
So, a complete solution is to make changes as outlined below. You can see how these CSS changes makes the code block show on various devices in following video:
https://goo.gl/KY5hkM . You will notice that there is absolutely no horizontal scroll appearing as a result of this CSS. (NOTE: make sure to remove width:500px for debug info in footer.cs under YAF.Controls project, else horizontal scroll will appear in spite of below CSS changes)
themes/Yafmobile/theme.css changes .yafnet .code {
/*padding-left: 16px;*/
/*margin: 5px;*/
}
.yafnet .innercode {
padding: 4px;
background-color: #efefef;
border: solid 1px #808080;
color: #000000;
line-height: 1.3em;
font-family: "courier new", "times new roman", monospace;
overflow: scroll;
/*width: 600px;*/
white-space: nowrap;
}
(no need to include max-width for .innercode div)
.yafnet .code {
max-width: 85vw;
}

Reason: Not specified
The quote part will be sized properly if div.innerquote css specifies a max-width like 85vw or something less than device width. I will post that CSS from my app later after doing some more research on YAFMobile theme.
UPDATEI noticed that in YAF 2.2.3, the quote part is already within the mobile device width boundaries when using YAFMobile theme. So, no CSS is needed but as a caution, one could include the following CSS in
YAFMobile/theme.css file. (

.yafnet .innerquote {
max-width: 85vw;
}
