What happened to the style choices? I'm back at the 'new' one - which works like crap on my XP machine. I'm not likely the only one still using XP. I hope this is temporary...
I will check.With the new format I find that on my Android tablet it forces me into the mobile view even if I have the "show desktop site" option enabled in Chrome. Is there something set server side overriding this preference?
With a big tablet I prefer the regular view to the phone optimized mobile look.

I'm not sure why but I was having lots of functionality issues with the new style on this XP machine. I got errors when clicking on the little notice bell thing, and the notification button. Didn't see a forum jump bar, and there was a couple of pages at the top of menu item type stuff that I had to scroll past every time to get to the actual forum page. And the pages loaded a lot slower.
But as long as I can view old style I'm good - so far. I suspect there are lots of bugs to work out yet anyway - maybe I'll try the new style again after some time goes by. Good luck.

Now I can use the up arrows that pop up in the lower right of the screen to get back to the top, then click the forum name in the path to get a refreshed topic page. A path at the bottom of the page, in addition to the one at the top, would be nice, but this isn't too bad...I see that the 'path' is now at the top of the page. I found one at the bottom useful; When I got to the end of a thread, I could just hit the forum name and get a refreshed topic page. As it is, I have to either go back to the top of the page to get to the path, or right-click, hit 'back,' then reload the page.
I've just been clicking the 'forums' button at the top of the page.Now if you want to go back to the full forum list you have to click home and then navigate back down to the forums.
