Is this a new format or something?

So the other day I noticed that the format of Free Republic has changed, or maybe my viewing settings changed, or something else. Problem seems to be that all I get is the headers. No first sentence, no intro, just headers. I find this format much less desireable.

Did I change something or what?

Someone has to say it..

..are you logged in?

(In other words, I don't have a clue what you are talking about)

Some of us prefer it that way.

FR hasn't changed. It's your machine. Figuring out what you did to it, or what something did to you is going to be tougher.

click here:

Settings - Default Page

You find this in the upper right hand corner of any browsing page... under "More" "Preferences"

Do you normally see the start of a thread?

(You may have clicked on the 'messages' word, under the bar on the top left hand corner of the screen. If you click on 'threads'..normal programming may resume).

Change your batteries in your beeber.

I think that happened to me once to.

Click at the top right hand side of the page where it says.."Threads Messages"

You can chose just the thred title or a bit of the message.

Strange thing is that this happened while at work and has also appeared on my machine at home. Also, the same thread is often repeated 10 or 12 times, but not necessarily consecutively.

If you're using a version of Windows that has System Restore, (anything as new as Windows ME or newer), you can set your computer settings back to an earlier date before the problem.

That fixes a lot of problems.

I am now a Happyguy! Thank you. I couldn't stand the other format.

I prescribe a dozen oysters, half a gallon of gatorade (any flavor) and fresh mangoes, as many as you can eat.



You might not improve your FR experience, but you'll be a 'new man,' if you know what I mean.

[Happygal]

You are more than welcome.

I normally have some sort of 'ooh, ooh, what happened, what did I do' episode with my computer on a daily basis.

For me it comes with being click happy (with my mouse), and blonde! *LOL* :-)

I prefer to keep my colon inside my body thank you very much!

[Petronski]

;O)

You, hoo'mama are correct! Thanks for the tip. 'Twas drivin' me crazy!

You are seeing messages not threads.

In the upper right hand corner

Home | Forum | Pings | Mail | More ... [Pager]

Threads | Messages

Click on threads.

[Happygal]

I think he has it figured out, now. :-)

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Yes, so I see.

I wonder how many other people will wander by and tell him what to do?

[Happygal]

Maybe there should be a Problem Solved button to lock threads and save bandwidth? *L*
