    There's a lot of threads all talking about the same thing ......
    The new forum design.
    I know i'm getting old and maybe a bit befuddled, but what's changed ?
    Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    I'm so confused. Hasn't white always been the background colour for posts? The actual text of posts and replies - wasn't it always black on white?
  • Don't understand - clicking the link to go back to using the old skin doesn't seem to do anything...

    When i go into my Settings it just says "subscribed threads (0)" and there is no sign of "Manage version" anywhere to be seen. I don't like this, too bright, hurts my eyes but I don't want to leave the friendss I've made on here!

    Did you go to "full profile" and then "settings"?

  • I also cannot revert back, and I'm not a techno-dunce. 20+ years working in/around IT and running a number of forums means I should be able to manage something as simple as choosing a skin from a dropdown list.


    And they've closed the feedback thread now as well. Handy.

    I seem to spend more time scrolling than I do reading :rotfl: with the new layout, so it's bye-bye MSE forum


    Edit: and just as I posted that, it's magically reverted to the old layout (yay!) without me doing anything (I did click on the "old layout" thing earlier, but it wasn't doing anything - maybe that's been fixed?)

    Yes, I did.

    But now I've clicked on the "Read more" link under "Welcome to the new forum", instead of giving me something to read it's gone back to the old version, for me at any rate. I hope someone's had a re-think after reading our feedback.
