It's much better today for me too, thank you. Almost normal, just the page numbers go backwards for me anyway. If I go to the next page, it's actually the previous page. Is it possible to run the numbers so page 1 is the first and not the latest?

This is seriously odd... I see page numbers 1-<x> left to right like normal on a PC

Are you on a phone? Tablet? PC? Android? Apple? Enquiring minds want to know...

A "friend" will not "stand by you" no matter what you do. That is NOT a friend. That is an enabler. That is an accomplice.
A REAL friend will sit you down and tell you to your face to stop being a firetrucking idiot before you ruin your life and the lives of those around you.

I went to edit my profile as D8 is now D9 and xW is now 50 and not 49. When I clicked on "Save" I got the following error:
An Error Has Occurred!
Call to undefined function dl()

This is fixed.  For reasons unknown, some needed php modules were not selected and mime type check on avatars was not working.  It affected all members.  Crocweb support reset to default and we're good.

Yep. I was able to modify my profile info this morning (my time) without a problem...

And the reaction time of everything is blazingly fast compared to what it was...

If this is how the forum is supposed to look then it’s awful on my phone! Hard to use and hard to read. Not a good new layout at all!

Everything is just on top of each other and it’s so hard to use and read as a result!

I just got a PN from HelpingMe that basically said the same thing about not being able to get to messages or the threads on his phone....

Thank you UM for sorting it for me! You’re very clever and I, on the other hand, am hopeless with technical stuff

Have a good day

I’ve just noticed that unless I actually log in properly then the site is still appearing weirdly on my phone!

Has anyone else got this problem?

Well if you don't log in then the settings in your profile will not be applied to the site.

Best to log on IMHO

I put you back on Curve Multi Color, basic layout should be the same as it's always been.  Page numbers in this topic are displayed as Pages: 1 2 3 4 [All], which is correct.

If this is how the forum is supposed to look then it’s awful on my phone! Hard to use and hard to read. Not a good new layout at all!

Everything is just on top of each other and it’s so hard to use and read as a result!

The new theme is responsive, the layout is different depending on the size screen you're viewing it on.  Elements are stacked vertically in phone view so they can be displayed at a readable size.  The major difference between pc and phone view is you're taking a fullsize landscape view theme and squeezing it into a small portrait view display.  You're basically trying to fit ten pounds of stuff into a one pound bag, it involves a lot of compromises.  What isn't clear to me is how anyone is seeing the old theme (Curve Multi Color) on a phone.  It's not responsive, and in FF phone emulations it's displayed as a tiny version of the pc theme.

Has anyone else got this problem?

If you're a guest (not logged in) you see the forum default theme (new theme).  When you log in, you see the default theme unless you've selected a different one in your Profile.  If you're not logged in, forum doesn't know who you are, or that you've selected an alternate theme.
