Xenforo Upgrade

[mackie99]

Not sure if this is related to the upgrade, but I'm getting a weird one.

My Chrome tab of SatelliteGuys looks normal when the tab is active:

But when I go to another tab, the SatGuys tab looks like this:

Is the site really that insecure that it thinks I won't return?

I'm seeing the same thing if I have more then one tab open and I'm not on the Sat Guys tab.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

It misses you.

 

[klang]

Same here too with Chrome on a Mac.

 

[DWS44]

That's actually pretty funny, IMO.

I have so many tabs open, I just see a sad face.

I was just about to open a new thread about this because the way I browse SG is by opening up every thread I want to read in a particular part of the forum, such as the Dish part. This could be 10 or more threads. But when the tab has the sad emoji and "Come back to SateliteGuys, I no longer know which tab is which. Is this really necessary?

Agree, I can't find the preference to turn it off. Very frustrating.

It looks like Scott has given us relief from this obfuscation. Thanks Scott!

The light theme isn't rendering right. It was sporadic last night, now today it's broken 100% of the time except on the top-level forum display. The dark theme works fine.

The What's New page is particularly borked with the Default skin.

Not seen this issue here all day.

harshness didn't say I didn't believe you, was just saying I have not seen that here. I even tried different browsers before posting. I just tested here and tested both light styles.

Saw this earlier today.

I wasn't accusing you of anything. Just wanted you to see what I'm seeing. I've seen this in threads but never in the What's New.

I'm using Firefox 72.02 on Windows 7 64 bit.

Here's something that might be a important data point: I decided to test the page in a private window and found that it rendered properly. I reason that something about my preferences or cookies must be causing the problem.

EDIT: Logging out fixes the problem and logging back in again makes it return.

EDIT #2: Using IE11 (that I haven't used in years), the problem manifests when I log in so whatever it is, it is associated with my account and not my browser.

That usually is the issue, when only one or a few see a problem like this.

I have found on my iPad that I can press and hold the Refresh icon which causes the “Request Desktop Site” option to become available. Selecting that gets me back the proper Page Layout.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

No changes have been made. I would try clearing your cache.

There is a Xenforo upgrade available but I want to backup the styles before upgrading to avoid the issue we had last time.

Maybe I will do that tomorrow night when watching the game.

I am surprised so many are using PCs to access the site.

Way too much trouble. iPhone and iPad WAY easier.

I use smart phone & laptop about equal time.
