What's wrong with the forum...
It looks messed... Looks like there were some updates or something, but the main page is just a mess right now?

It's almost unusable on mobile. All the drop down menus are open and there's all kinds of crazy stuff going on on the home page.

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
That's odd. It's almost like the forum was hacked...

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
I was able to see what you were talking about, when I saw it, I refreshed the page and it was fine. Kind of weird. There was an update, but just a version update........investigating further.

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
Well I can't tell what the issue was but managed to grab a screen capture from my phone, as you can see below. I assume this is what people were seeing? Everything looks OK but it looks like it may have been a CSS error. Something us IT people hate to say, but it looks like it "fixed itself" LOL

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
I wondered if it had anything to do with the bots attacking the page and trying to register lately. There's been a lot of them in the last few weeks.
On a side note, where is the option for font colours so I can write in blue!
Edit: I found it! And for the record, I have to select the colour every time, but I like my stuff in blue, so it's worth the extra effort.

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
Not sure where that option is, but as for the bot attack, still getting them now. I had shut registration off, figuring bots has been configured to deal with captcha and were getting around it. When a new version for this site came up, it included a new captcha process which I assumed was updated to deal with bots. I was clearly wrong. LOL Nonetheless, I keep this site up to date on version as they almost always include security updates.
If anyone else is having issues seeing that weird screen, please let me know. Thanks.

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
I only see a font colour option when replying. Not sure how you made it default.

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
It was still like before just now when I logged on, but simply refreshing my screen did solve the problem. I left and came back, and the screen was still fine. Thanks.

What's that you say? Someone made a new thread?
Re: What's wrong with the forum...

Oddly, I can only duplicate this when I use Firefox on my Galaxy S7 Edge, if I use Chrome or the built in browser, no problem. On any of my computers, using Firefox or any browser there is no issue.

Re: What's wrong with the forum...
I get that too. I just keep going back and trying again. Sometimes it takes a few attempts.
