Under the old screen/format, I could at least see all the different pages, albeit one at a time. The way it is now, Flyertalk is useless to me. I have received the best information using this site, both directly and indirectly. Hopefully someone does something, otherwise I will have to see if I can find something that hopefully comes close to Flyertalk, which I doubt I can.

I lost the scroll feature and added the mobile skin. My desktop changed, still can't scroll and cannot go back to the way it was. Anyone able to help this old man out?

edit to add: I can only get the first and last page of a thread. Nothing in between. Can IT just do a reset for me?

What browser/device are you on?

BXK, you might fix the mobile skin issue by clicking on this link: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/prof...ons&styleid=24

Thank you. That is what I have been looking for. It was no longer available to me when I went to Mobile skins. I used to have the infinite scroll on this version, but it stopped a few days ago, but now I can go page by page if I have to.

Chrome both on Android and Windows. EDIT: it's intermittent.

The last unread pointer issue is still consistently there though!

If you use private/incognito browsing, do these issues persist?

Yes, just tried an incognito session, new login, and it's not possible to scroll through a "page" boundary in a newly unread thread.

Gotcha. Could you please post a screenshot of the boundary where you're scrolled all the way down, so I can show tech?

I would, but the paranoid Android overlords seem to think taking a screenshot of an incognito browser window is forbidden. And I didn't realise that until I just tried. Perhaps that's a bug too, but it does pop up a message saying you're not allowed to screen capture this app. Sigh.

There's not a lot to see... The page counter at the bottom shows that you're on page (example) 103/105 and you simply cannot scroll out of the page, no matter how hard you try.

As it's the same in incognito and normal, here's an example screen capture from a normal browser...

Yes, both of them. I can't screenshot because apparently incognito mode prevents Screenshots...

Woah, check out this guy living in 2074 with the dark mode FlyerTalk. OK thank you for the photo!

[MENTION=804859]plunet[/MENTION] if you turn off your Dark Mode, does scroll work properly?

It doesn't. I had a friend try on their device, unfortunately dark mode is not a nice to have for me, it's a medical necessity.

Is there some way to turn off the horrible scrolling funcitonality of this forum?
 
The perma-scroll feature of this forum instead of dealing with things page by page is really annoying and doesn't make for a better user experience. Is there any way to turn this off from the user end?
