Ryanair boarding passes - Didn't they used to show passport number & expiry date?

Just checked-in for some flights next week and noticed the boarding passes i have priinted out only show name & nationality. Has it changed?

Added:
They show all the usual other things like the barcode, PRN, flight number, etc. but at the top right it only shows name & nationality. I'm sure they used to show passport number & expiry as they checked it at the gate.

    Several posts on this subject recently with the end result that this is the norm now and Ryanair staff/contractors at airports are all familair with it.

    DAK if it`s OK to print a boarding pass just in black and white?

    I don`t use coloured on my printer.

    Er, not sure whether I've screwed up or not but I have just done online check-in for our flights to Tenerife next Wednesday. When I went to check-in outbound and return flights were ticked so I checked in both ways. My return flight is 28th Feb. I didn't think you could check in more than 15 days before flying? It printed out the boarding passes OK, but have I checked-in for my return flight or not?

    If you go back to your booking you can see if the check in states CLOSED, which means you are deemed to have checked in.

    OK thanks zaksmum, it says confirmed and when I click on the Check-in button it says I am already checked in so hopefully all is OK.
