Did this forum's appearance on a phone just change?

It's possible I'm not remembering right, but didn't it used to have a more mobile-friendly layout? I have to zoom in now, and ignore the columns on the right that scroll off screen.

 

Are there settings for this?

Oh wow, this makes me feel a bit better. Even though I am relatively new to smart phones for personal use.

 

I too was having trouble with these forums and my phone as far as navigation.

I couldn't tell I had any PMs.  

 

I don't get what you mean about columns on the right though. My phone is dead right now, need to charge it, so I can't pull it up to look atm.

But I could scroll up and down decently enough, and didn't need to zoom in any.

Mine still looks the same as it has, no zooming and no off-screen columns. Perhaps you have inadvertently switched to the full version of the website? Scroll down to the bottom and see if there is a link in the left corner, just above all of the social media icons, that says "Use Mobile Version". If so, that link will bring you back.

Perhaps you're on the full version rather than the mobile version? If you are, there should be a link on the lower left hand corner of the screen that says, "Use Mobile Version".

Bingo Phil, thanks. I figured it had to be something like that, even though I most certainly didn't mean to switch to desktop. I also missed the link back to mobile when I looked, probably because the desktop site on a phone isn't super legible or convenient.

 

So, sorted, cool.
