"FT Desktop Infinite Scroll" feature for desktop viewing introduced Jan 2017
NOTE: Selecting the Mobile Skin / display format will activate Infinite Scroll.
Opting out of "FT Desktop Infinte Scroll" skin:
How to opt out:
If you opt out, your pagination will revert to the classic FT Desktop View skin when you are logged into your FT account. Bear in mind that if you visit FT before logging in, you will see the infinite scroll.
To opt out, you can see this post or just go to
My FlyerTalk->Edit Options->Thread Display Options->Disable Desktop Infinite Scroll
Click the check box and click SAVE CHANGES.

If infinite scroll is set to default style and you keep reverting to infinite scroll:
... Unfortunately since it's set to be the default style, opting out wont work.
So, with that said, you'll need to go into the "My Options" page and both disable infinite scroll and change your default style/skin to FT Desktop ..also don't forget to save!
Hope this helps!

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?

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.

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?
