Just happened to me for the first time--didn't see any option to change back to desktop--used the styleid link to get back to normal. Thankfully I knew about this thread!

THANK YOU

I was getting mad, incognito mode was fine but could not get back to normal desktop mode on my computer!!!

Thanks so much for this!!! It was driving me mad that it switched to mobile randomly on the desktop....

forums look completely different in different browsers
 

Why do the forums look completely different in different browsers? The one on the left is Chrome. The one on the right is Edge. Is one the new version and one the old version? The version in Edge (the right side) is the one I am most familiar with. The version in Chrome (the left side) is very difficult to navigate...

One is in desktop mode, the other mobile mode.

Mine just toggled to mobile mode and I don't know how to turn it back...

Is this true for others too?

Here's how to switch back:

How to get back old website style?
 

It seems that this forum had very recently changed to a new format that seems to be suited for phones, not a PC browser. Is there any setting that can be done to get the old style back?

I think your post was merged into this thread, if you didn't realise, the answer is upthread.

Thanks to a prior poster who suggested adding "?styleid=24" to the end of the URL. I got stuck on the mobile thread now (it sucks, IB) and was able to switch back with the above trick.

Unwanted Mobile View on Mobile Devices
 

Recently while using my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 tablet and my iPhone 13 the site information displayed when opening Flyertalk changed and I'm seeing what I think is the mobile version of the site. I didn't make any changes, it just changed on its on for both my Android and AppIe OS devices. I found this post from several years ago that details how to disable the mobile skin although when I follow the listed steps there is no menu to select Desktop/Full View, or Mobile display. The view I see on my mobile devices eliminates some useful forum information but also completely eliminated all advertising (that part I like).

I'd like to get back to a full view as the view I'm seeing is not very useful when following threads. Details on how to change to full site on my mobile devices would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi! If you are stuck in the mobile version of the site, click the three lines at the top left and then click "View Desktop Site". To switch back from desktop to mobile, there is a large green button all the way at the bottom of the page.

I found the fix listed at the top of the thread which worked but I do not see the "View Desktop Site" in the drop down menu of the three bar Top Left Menu.

Thanks for getting me straightened out.
