Steve Filak Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hi Guys, I've gotten a lot of PMs and read quite a few posts about what to do when the forum's viewing format changes unexpectedly. The fix is VERY easy, and if you follow the directions in the image below, you'll be back to normal viewing status in no time flat. Hope this helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CiscoKid Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 The looklayout for threads has changed for me. Now, after the initial post, there's a set of threaded links at the bottom of the page. I no longer see all the posts on one page. Is there a setting that has gotten inadvertently changed on my end? Did the admin change something? I don't like it this way. And if I've missed an earlier discussion about it... oops, my bad. Brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
svaz Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Steve, I know there was a bru-haha recently about too many pinned threads, but I think this little bug about changing formats should be up there. Ciscokid, check out the Options pull-down on the right side of the thread frame and select "Switch to: Standard" Cheers, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CiscoKid Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 (edited) Woot! "Switch to Standard" was what I needed. I was looking under "My Controls" and didn't see anything. Thanks! Edited February 4, 2009 by CiscoKid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne S Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 In-case some other person needs to know this is the place to change it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had the same problem a couple weeks ago. I remembered someone posting so had an idea of how to fix it but I couldn't find the post. It took me 20-30 minutes to get it fixed between searching for the post and then figuring out how to do it myself since I couldn't find the post explaining it.

illithid00 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I'm thinking a thread about this should be pinned in the FAQ section, if it hasn't been already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terrysumner Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 (edited) I agree...but since there already is a topic that covers this very subject, I simply merged it with the original. Edited February 5, 2009 by terrysumner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oroka Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Oh gawd thanks for this post. This forum layout was confusing me, and I have run my own forums and created custom skins. That 'Options' button just does not stand out at all, I was looking in the Board Settings in my user CP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NaOH Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Anything different for Firefox? No problems with Explorer but I need to select Standard view in every thread with Firefox. It won't seem to save. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
