Chrome on the PC and iPhone 4, have had it happen a few times on both, yes.
 
Love the new layout, looks really sleek and... modern if that's a word to describe it.
Though, is there a chance of the old font and colour editor thing coming back?
 
Thanks to those of you who confirmed the loss of page-formatting with Chrome; I think it's a bug in the browser which I may be able to avoid by re-configuring the web server.

Please do a force-reload of your browser's cache (simply doing it on this page is fine) by pressing the following keys:

Windows: Shift + Ctrl + F5
Mac: Cmd + Shift + R
Please let me know if it happens again after you have done this.
 
The site runs better than before on the PS3 browser, awesome. 👍
 
Great, thanks, @Apok. I think I may finally be getting closer to the root of the problem. For everyone else who has experienced this (where the page looks like what you see in @GranTurismo916's screenshot), if you could confirm that you were also using the Google Chrome browser, that would be a great help.


I was using IE. But its fine on Firefox.
 
Well, the more I'm getting use to GTP12, the more I start to like it. :)

I tried out the PS3's browser for the first time yesterday and it seemed to be fine, as well.
I've had that on very rare occasions on Firefox.
As have I, but only once.
 
It may have been asked but can someone tell me what the 'current status' bit in your profile does? Where does it show what you enter in there?
 
It posts it on your profile, just like it worked before with visitor messages if you messaged yourself.

Still a nagging problem on my end.
 
Couple of questions -- I see that we still have the option to change our custom title in our CP, but the title is nowhere to be found. Not even clicking our avatars or going to a member's profile page. Is it going to be removed or is it a bug and it's going to be added? Also, has the PM limit been increased / removed? When going to my inbox I can't find the meter that used to show what percentage of my capacity I'm using.
 
Is there a way of viewing all of your posts within a particular thread? I used to click on the total posts, find my name on the list and then click the '# of posts' bit to see my posts in that thread but that no longer seems to be an option.

🤬

I've made another change to try and debug this, but I never see the problem, so please let me know if it happens again. How often would you say it happens?

@Coxis They've been removed from threads. Nothing to say about if or when they will be added again. PMs no longer have limits; please check the official announcement for more info.

@Moglet Use the search options available in the top right of the header. Search for posts made by you (enter your username) and limit your search to the thread you're viewing. The listing on the reply number may return.
 
@Jordan - I'd say the CSS formatting issue only pops up maybe once a day for me, though it just did it on the phone in Safari, so that's new. This isn't the only place that it happens however, and on the phone, it tends to happen on the main page more often; once I click through to the forums all is right. Minor inconvenience!
 
It's been happening a couple times a day for me. A couple of refreshes or closing and restarting the browser usually solves the problem.

I've tried clearing my entire cache and the problem still rears its ugly head, sooner or later.

It happened to me twice today, but I've had it happen around 5 times a day for the past two days. That might be because I browsed the forum more than today.
 
OK, thanks. Once again, please let me know if you see it happen again now, as I made some more changes to test things out at the time I posted that last message.
 
I'm finally figuring out where everything is now. I don't particularly care for the setup/ layout of the site now. It feels like using social media instead of a forum. The two things that bother me most is not being able to go right to my subscribed threads from any forum page (former 'control panel'), and the post count not being under the avatar anymore. The post count is a convenient way to guesstimate post validity. I think with some time I can get used to the new layout, although it is a pain trying to find everything now
 
It's mostly good for me. I just tried browsing from my phone -- huge improvement. Kudos. What I'd like to see back is clicking on the number of replies of a topic so that I can find all the posts I've made on that particular thread. It was a handy feature.
 
Maybe I should create a new thread but I'm going to ask it here first before I do.

What this means and does?

Restore dismissed notices

Basically, any notices you've had since the new software was put in place (the Alerts tab, for when you're quoted, mentioned, or someone likes one of your posts) will be viewed as new again.
 
@kikie Actually, notices are those announcements you see in the yellow box on top of the page. You can dismiss them by clicking the 'X'. Using that option restores them so you can review anything you might have missed.
 
If I activate this option and I click "Save Changes", it is deactivated automatically the next time I open the "Preference" tab.

Is this because there are no notices?
 
Is there any way to turn OFF alerts?? Every time someone quotes you, alert is added. It's nice, but is there a possibility to have it turned OFF ??

Second thing I've received 10 points of infarction, and there is no trace of those points to be found. Is that mean it's been canceled or i just couldn't find it ??

You can select what alerts you get here.

Haven't had the issue today so it's looking pretty good. 👍
