Site Updates
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
Menu button, top left of the screen, where I find the link to new posts, seems to be missing.
Similar issue with some icons. Shift F5 did nothing but re-starting the browser (Firefox) did the trick.
Thanks but there aren't any new layouts
the update may have changed the theme for you... have you been able to change the theme at the bottom of the page?
Logos/icons are not loading.
The quote reply feature seems different - have we lost the ability to preview a post? When you are reading a post with a previous post contained/embedded within, the posting time of the inbedded post does not appear which makes it hard to go back and find it if you want to.
It would be good also if the thread heading stayed at the top as you scan down the posts. I often forget who i am reading about even though clicking on the thread a few seconds earlier.

As I posted above, all seems to be working OK for me now but cam back to ask a couple of questions:
- Is there a reason the site has to be set up for American spelling? Which is not actually the recognised, official Australian lexicon. (See there's an example right there. 'Recognised' gets the red underlining when it is correct English spelling!) This really irritates me. We are not Americans; nor am I and Anglophobe. It's just what is our correct, official language, and what isn't. It involves a vast number of different spellings, google if you are not sure.
- 2nd concern is a minor one, literally. Like a lot of modern websites, the technos seem to keep downsizing everything, probably to squeeze ever-smaller icons etc onto the page. This trend is the opposite of what is friendlier for one's eyesight as we age. The way it all seems to be shrinking gets to be a bit of a pain. I can cope but it just gets annoying.

Tried the hard refresh, nothing happened
Clearing the cache and history is the same thing so went for that option instead.
No idea why the hard refresh didn't happen, bloody IT, about as reliable as a 1970s Morris.
