Example of ad scrolling across post; it moves as you scroll across

OK, yeah, are you on the desktop version while on mobile, as it looks like? I can talk to tech about this, but no guarantees, as I believe it's not directly supported.

Does the ad stay in the middle if you zoom out?

Same here. Ad moves with zooming.

Using mobile version is a non-starter for me.

Also on web version on mobile I am not able to access the thread page numbers once inside the thread
the top bar is fixed and I cant get above it to access the origin of the thread or the thread page numbers

Other than changes in the area of displaying images, everything else seems to be fixing problems that nobody had while introducing change for the sake of change.

One bug I've noticed (it may have already been mentioned, but I'm not about to read through 500 posts to see if it's there) is that links to specific posts, such as those that go out in emails informing thread subscribers of a new post, don't work properly. The top few lines of the post are hidden under the page header and the breadcrumb trail to the thread. You have to scroll the thread down to read the post you went to see. While I realize that scrolling down every time I get a notification email pales in comparison with the time I waste getting coffee, it impacts the user experience.

If you can't go back to the previous version, which a quick scan of posts here suggests is what most people would like you to do, at least fix that.

Do you have Infinite Scroll disabled in MyFlyerTalk? I re-enabled it on desktop to see and it does shift page numbers to a bottom bar.

Efrem, we are currently working on this and it can also be solved by turning off Infinite Scroll in MyFlyerTalk.

Tech is currently fixing some stuff, thus causing that short outage.

MacBook pro, 13" retina, 2015, using chrome, almost full screen, OSX 10.13.2. Chrome Version 62.0.3202.89 (Official Build) (64-bit). Site was 100% fine from 3am - 9am MST today, but at 3:30pm MST (just around the screen shot time) is when it all went to hell. No special skin, whatever the default is.

That's great for the people that do that, but we can't assume that everyone will, so can no longer use it as a direct link to posts.

Not everyone that reads Flyertalk will even have an account.

It is more or less fixed now; you MAY get sent to mobile for 1 page, and after that it ought to send you to the desktop site.

EsherFlyer Nov 16, 2017 3:49 pm

Yay :)

I have "Forum Skin" set to Forum Default and "Never use mobile" set. I still get Mobile One listed as the format at the bottom in the drop-down menu, even though it's actually using FT Desktop NG.
