The mobile skin does not stick any longer. I can select it, but as soon as I go to the next page, it reverts to desktop view. The same happened when the infinite scroll for desktop was initially rolled out. It was fixed, but the bug seems to be back again.
Running Chrome on Android version 7.

Add me to the list of folks that can't get the mobile skin to work on iPad. It started a couple weeks ago. iPhone works just fine (goes to mobile), but the iPad won't. Using default safari browser for both, and never changed any setting in the browser or in my ft account.
Just tried clearing all data on my browser, and all that did was make me go through and log in to all my websites again, but FT still won't do mobile. Even clicking the m.flyertalk.com link in the thread wiki takes me to the full site.

I noticed embedded stuff doesn't show up when vied on mobile. I am using a BlackBerry PRIV running Android 6.0.1
The embedded stuff that fails to display that I have noticed is Twitter and YouTube.
An example can be found here.

I no longer can jump pages when on my iPhone. Have to select "full site" and change page numbers. For example. Thread has 100 pages, I click on thread in mobile view, it takes me to a random page (not the last page). I scroll down to bottom and no longer at to move forward to next page. Have to click view full site and then select next page and on and on. When I select the next page while in full view, it reverts BACK to mobile. Really annoying. Cleared cache. No change. Cleared cookies. No dhange. Reset all data. No fhange. Stock iOS 10 with safari.
Super frustrating!

I'm on my mobile right now and didn't scroll to see if this has been asked:
1) When I am in a thread, and want to go back to the sub-forum I just came from, this can only be done by clicking "back".
Scrolling to the top, the sub forum name is not clickeable. The only option is to click on the main forum and the clicking through to the sub forum again.
2) if I am on page 30 of a thread, the only way to take me back to the sub-forum is to click back. If I have clicked through several pages of the thread it means I have to click "back" several times.
a) would be nice to have a quick way to go back to the start of the thread (not by selecting page 1/...) and
b) even if I end up on page 1 of the thread I have the same problem as stated in point #1 of this post.

Using this thread as an example, if I scroll up all the way to page 1, I have the 'parent threads' of:
"Home / Technical Support and Feedback"
One would assume that clicking on "Technical Support and Feedback" would take me to that sub forum. But it doesn't. It's not a 'link'.
BUT "home" IS.

Can you recommend any fixes?

I have been experiencing this problem since last week and have tried clearing cookies and my history several times. Additionally, even though I have disabled it in my settings Infinite scroll is back and I have to disable that on every thread/new page.
I am running Chrome on an Android phone.
