So, I've been tring to read some posts here, and all I'm getting are lists of posts that I can't open. And the faniliar pages look different.  It just says page summary, has links to posts,thenwon't even open. Grr!

Now on my android tablet, I canread them, but not on any computer in the house. Is there some weird setting? I haven't been on much, so

There was an update message yesterday or the day before, saying they were making some changes in formats. When I first got here, I couldn't figure out how to find "post", then I remembered some of what the update said and looked at the options at right under my name and found drop down menus for things we are used to seeing there. Sounds like maybe you got a list and have to figure out how to open the things on the list?

Yes! But while I could on yours, I still can't on mine. I cannot open up my post at all. It doesn't do a thing when I click on posts, and I can't find that dropdown menu of which you speak. I know I've been mostly M.I.A., but I am ruing (rue-ing?) the familiar and user friendly format I've known for 10+ years.

I'm on my tablet now, but typing on this not as easy as the desktop. I know people use their devices for everything these days, so can't help but wonder if one isn't at the expense of the other even though it's apples and oranges.

Waah...

So, where exactly is this menu?!?!?

[slaymesoftly]

Ok, agreed. Something is very wrong. I tried to click on "reply at web page" and only got a portion of your journal. Just the banner and a little bit on the right side. Tried it twice with the same result, so obviously something is messed up.

On the other hand, you may be right. So many people now use their phones or tablets, that sites may be making efforts to cater to those people rather than those of us who would rather type on a real keyboard. :) It may be difficult to support all the platforms now available to users.

How about now?

Just noticed your post with a 11:30am (local) time, I'm hoping I fixed it from your side, too, when I fixed it so I could see it.

Please let me know - and thanks so much for your help. It's 6:30pm CST here.

Hi Kim,

Sorry I didn't respond in a timely manner (pun intended).

How are you? Rick just got a job, so happy about that. Will post soon. :)
