    Does the site have new formatting?

    Things look different on the site in the last few days. The colors are wonky on Safari now on my Macbook Pro, and now there is black text against a dark blue background, and the Forum/Audioshark News/Forum Announcements are a dark shade of blue on a darker blue background, Which has a negative impact on legibility. The Messsage link and Search button are now superimposed. And, I can't find the New Posts link anymore.



    What's up with that?

    Re: Does the site have new formatting?

    Every once in a while on refresh, Safari gives me a little wonky look. Please try a different browser and see if it continues. It has not happened to me in a while.

    It looks fine in a different browser, but I would prefer to use Safari for all my browsing, and not have to open Google Chrome just to visit Audioshark.

    It’s on your end. No changes here.

    Use Tapatalk on phone or tablet when you can.

    If things go wonky, you’ll have dozens posting about it. If not, then it’s you.

    Re: Does the site have new formatting?

    Thanks, Mike, but I never use my phone or tablet when visiting internet forums, always the laptop.

    I don't know what happened, it seems to be application-specific, I don't see any changes using Google Chrome. Curiously, I don't see any issues at all when visiting other sites.

    Issues on my iPad here as well. Sometimes it needs to be refreshed a few times before everything goes back to normal. No issues with Windows. No big deal

    "Refreshed" sounds a bit less dramatic than "reloaded" these days... But both terms are applicable

    I've done everything I can think of, including logging out, logging in, rebooting, refreshing the page, etc. Nothing works. Still looks way wonky in Safari on the MBP. Looks just fine in Google Chrome, Safari is now a mess.

    iOS apps are right out of the question.

    Fixed it! Had to add the Developer menu, then select Empty Caches.

    Back to normal now.

    Yep, I get that! And, that's cool.

    I used to teach a business/product development best practice called Voice of the Customer, aka "VOC". A key principle of VOC is that all user's requirements are equally valid.

    I've been having same problem for months in Safari. Can't wait to see if the developer fix works for me. Thanks Puma Cat!

    I tried Tapatalk. Didn't like it either. Don't remember exactly why, now, though one thing is that it did seem to be a little more intrusive than I like.

    Yeah, Safari's been behaving strangely of late.

    The Develop menu is not available for Ipad. Seems I would have to connect ipad to MBP or similar in order to utilize. Oh well. Just refresh until that stops working, then clear website history/browsing data and try again later.

    Re: Does the site have new formatting?

    I have zero problems using Safari with Audioshark. If something doesn't work right on a page, the first thing I try is to go the privacy settings under Safari preferences and navigate to "manage website data." Then I delete the data or whatever else the page has saved on the computer. By and large this usually works. I did it today on a website that wouldn't load properly and it loaded a new version of the website page when I navigated back to the site which resolved the problem.

    I've been a member for several year but I've always had trouble navigating on the AudioShark site. It doesn't much matter whether I select 'Linear - Oldest First', 'Threaded', 'Hybrid' or whichever, I can't get to post I want to read without scrolling through pages of posts rather than going directly to the particular post.

    Unfortunately it keeps me away from the site. What can I do to make the site more useful to myself?

    I'm using the Chrome browser if that makes a difference.

    Yep, I'm having issues again, I can't get the control panel in Advanced Mode that lets you format text any more, I have to type in the formatting codes manually.
