If you'd like to revert to the old layout:

Switch to desktop site
If your using chrome hit the three dots menu > desktop site

If you want a quick change to see some more info, rotate your phone and you have the regular desktop site. Rotate it back to portrait and your on the new layout.

@BAHayman
Seems like this is a mixed bag based on the poll.
Do you think the beta rev2 version would be better?
https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=535718.msg4019821#msg4019821

Polls don't tell the whole story. Having a transition period (perhaps a way to force desktop site for iPhone users) would be nice.

Why wouldn't you want to change it? (50 sounds like endless scrolling for a desktop too!)
https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?action=profile;area=theme

I liked it before this mobile BS. But the entire DDF (even the forum list or the topic list) is unusable for me in its current format, nothing fits on the screen properly. Is there a link to this elusive desktop view people are referring to? @BAHayman Can we please have that added to the page footer or something and make it persist per session?

Reminds me of the good old days when FatWallet did a redesign and the view on my Palm Centro went haywire. Of course, I was a legacy user, but half of the frum community uses iPhones.

I don't think this is a common issue among DDFers.

I see the "new" button on the topics list.
How about on the ddf home page, on desktop I could click the icon on the far left to show, on the specific board, only topics that have new replies.
(how) can I do that in mobile?

Why is my mobile (iOS) browser accessing DDF a narrower webpage than usual? Did something change?

I also don’t have the menu that includes the advanced search option. What happened?
man this is totally confusing me too! I’m not sure if I like it or not.
I get it looks weird to have a full size web screen on mobile that u have to zoom on stuff but I’m just used to it.
Have to get used to this

ETA: ok I have to say I’m actually hating this new format:
1) I can’t see latest poster to see if it was me or a new person how silly is that?
2) within the thread it doesn’t say what the name of the thread is! Only scrolling to the top or bottom do I know what topic I’m in!

As of now it's not there yet.
You can add the following at the end of the URL: (when on the board)

Code: [Select]

Seems they were able to get rid of these icons



@Dan ( @BAHayman) was this accomplished by editing the CSS directly?
