I can't get to page 2 of the United forum. Keep getting this message:
HTTP ERROR 500
For the record, I hate this change. It's hard on the eyes and doesn't improve anything. Plus all the columns except the threads are too wide.

I can't read through threads properly without the thread jumping around. This may already have been raised, but since I can't read through threads without the thread jumping around...I can't tell. Yesterday, I kept being taken to odd posts when I tried to read a thread (not the last post read or the first or the last in a thread), which was bad enough; today is worse. In one thread, I kept trying to scroll to the top and couldn't; the thread kept popping down to the bottom. Also, I've tried going to several pages and they won't load. I can access some of them by getting to them via a thread, just not through the forum itself.

Delta forum, can't get to Page 3 or older (500 error). Glad it's not just me.
And yes, count me among those who have been generally avoiding FT until this mess is stabilized. Sad and ironic, given the passionate base of users who would have gladly beta-tested and who have spent countless time here dissecting other companies' botched/hasty IT updates!

Logged out - No page buttons, no last button, no reply button:
Logged in, again, no buttons for pages, post reply, or last page button:
The
The colouring, font sizing, and the font are dreadul, the previous layout was way better. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".
See these screenshots, the buttons and colour combination on the create post screen are dreadful, the buttons are too small, the black on grey buttons at the top are too small and the colour combination makes it hard to see clearly. The buttons for MyFT, Community, Wiki, New Posts, Search, Quick Links and Log Out are too small. The Submit reply, and preview post buttons are too small.The quote button is too small, too.

Can you post a full screenshot of the size of what the "Enhanced Interface - Full CKEditor" looks like on your device?

The cursor appears there when I try to type above whatever fits into the text box (such as what I’m doing now).
Im able to move the cursor anywhere I want but as long as its above whatever content that fits into the text box, it immediately jumps back up there (and hiding whatever I’m typing as I type) the moment I start typing.
Also, I’ve just discovered that the entire text box would freeze when I first click on edit post and enter the text box, only allowing me to scroll after I’ve typed one letter.

Can you please post a screenshot of "Disable Infinite Scroll" not appearing? It should be about 2/3 of the way down the page.
These are basically all the options I see when I click on the previous link. I even tried searching in page but there are no hits for “infinite”
As for your cursor in the text box, I would like to understand its behavior a little more.
-Does it automatically appear there when you open the reply window?
-Are you able to move the cursor anywhere within the text box?
-Does the cursor automatically return within the text options as it looks in your screenshot?
