I have no idea why the poll got hosed.

I've edited and re-opened and hopefully this time it sticks.

Getting the junior high school IT work experience kids to play with the web site was not a good idea. These changes are not the work of professionals

Seems impossible to go back a page or 2 to look at previous posts. Only getting a page with the last posts. For me that’s 20 to 40 depending on the adds & post size.

Seems like that's a bug. Could you post a full screenshot? Are you on Infinite Scroll?

Hosed again — at least for me.

I did see it briefly, however...

Same for me. Saw it briefly, now broken.

Oh the irony...

Which browser is that? Appearing as normal on Chrome. Does the rest of the site look like that for you?

On iPad safari. Only happening on searching in the forums.

Still messed up. Hopefully you weren't holding your breath.

Same for me for the poll. Seeing the same as the screenshot in post #343

Ditto for me on the poll - not working.

I'm not 100% sure I'm remembering correctly... wasn't the "Show Printable Version" able to show all posts in a thread at once, or at least more than the 40 posts per page limit? I admit I've never used the feature before, but it figures that now that I want to actually print a rather long thread, I can't get it to give me more than 40 posts per page. I also tried the old "archive" trick and that doesn't seem to work any more.

I'm using IE11 to try and view this mess, but it keeps locking up on me. The few times I actually am able to view things, the layout is just so darn scattered, that it really makes it undesirable to read.

I guess it's back to the other site for the time being until this monstrosity gets repaired.

I think we are doing the beta testing right now. :mad:

It appears that FT has hired Air Canada's IT team to do the "upgrade".

I'm pretty sure that's not what IB was hoping for (ie, driving users away), but the other site is probably doing the woo-hoo dance on IBs incompetence w/ this new enhancement.;)

And yes, the irony of the poll not working isn't lost on all of us :p :D

Kiwi, which browser are you on? It's showing up as the whole width of the page for me. Also, sorry for quoting you a bunch. I'm responding as I go down the list.

[MENTION=790438]IBJoel[/MENTION], can you look into the broken poll, please?

I can ask. As of now, it is located in the dropdown with your username in the upper right.

My suggestion for admins would be to globally disable infinite scroll for all users. If a user wants that terrible, buggy, memory abusing feature they can seek it out. It would resolve many peoples issues. Then you just have to deal with layout and theming.. oh and all the bugs.
