Creating forums in Physics forums app?

In summary, the Physics Forums app allows users to create threads and posts, but not forums. To create a new post, the user must be logged in and can do so by clicking on the pencil icon at the top of the intended forum. To post in an existing thread, the user can click on the arrow pointing to the right and type their post. It is also possible to use the app on an Android tablet.

I moved the thread to "Feedback and Announcements".
Only forum administrators (=Greg) can create new forums. No idea how to make posts with the app, but I know it is possible because many users use that function.

I use the app on my Android tablet. Ensuring you are logged in -
-> to create a new thread in a forum: go to the intended forum and click on the pencil at the top. that will display a new page where you enter the title, and content of the first post, of the thread.
->to post in an existing thread: in the thread there will be an arrow pointing to the right (at the bottom of the page: it will have the text 'Quick reply' on the left hand side). Click on that and type the content of your post.

I have no clue how to do print screens on my Samsung tablet otherwise I would have posted those, indicating on the images what to click.

Hope this helps!
