Mobile Next / Previous buttons

[baz4096]

On 2.18, when viewed on a narrow mobile device (iphone) there used to be a Next button that closed the current item, and opened the next item, without having to scroll back to the top of the article and saving an additional two keypresses - the equivalent of the 'J' keyboard shortcut on devices with keys... Where did this button go? On 2.19, we only have "Open" at the bottom of each article.
Also, I seem to recall a "Previous" button (I could be wrong!), which I used much less frequently, but still miss. Is it possible to restore these two buttons?

Looking at the style sheet, the button is hidden by default:

selfoss/assets/styles/main.scss

Lines 690 to 692 in bfb1f96

	.entry-next {
	display: none;
	}

Then displayed for screens with width ≤ 1024px:

selfoss/assets/styles/main.scss

Lines 1150 to 1152 in bfb1f96

	.entry-toolbar .entry-next {
	display: block;
	}

And then hidden again for width ≤ 641px:

selfoss/assets/styles/main.scss

Lines 1405 to 1407 in bfb1f96

	.entry-toolbar .entry-next {
	display: none;
	}

I am not sure if this ever changed but you can always override this by adding the following to user.css file in your selfoss directory:

@media only screen and (max-width: 641px) {
    .entry-toolbar .entry-next {
        display: block;
    }
}

I do not recall any “Previous” button and was not able to find entry-prev in the source history.

Thank you! I'm probably wrong about the previous button. Thanks for the tip. Next on the top bar isn't overly convenient on mobile devices - I much preferred it at the bottom where it's easy for your thumb to reach - however compared to no Next, at all, this is great. Many thanks.

Oh, right for showing it at the bottom, you can do:

@media only screen and (max-width: 641px) {
    .entry-smartphone-share .entry-next {
        display: block;
    }
}

Now it's perfect again, many thanks 👍

I found out why it regressed so I have decided to fix it in selfoss itself.

I have tried the latest snapshot. I have the button displayed, but when I go to the next feed, it doesn't mark as read the feed that has just been read.
