      Also can't mark forums as read and no up/down arrows to go to first/last post.

      Yes I have an ancient laptop with IE. I can see the same thing.

      Sorry, there's zero chance I'm fixing anything today though. Too busy. Should have some time over the weekend

      In the meantime you're stuck with your phone or you can nag your works IT department to get off IE

      Incidentally 0.4% of TSF traffic comes from IE. It's just dropped behind the Seamonkey browser

      All good. Just jumped on via phone as my posts were disappearing but it appears it is just that the page won’t load as I scroll down.

      Yeah I was getting that one occasionally yesterday on my laptop. Just go into the URL bar and update the post number to the next one and it'll load.

        I'll try to improve the look of that fixed header inside the threads and the scroll counter on desktops

        Plenty of alignment issues I need to fix too.

        Refresh every now and then and you'll get the latest fixes

        This is why I haven't updated for a while.. I knew they fucked with the layout. It sucks doing this without a dev server to play with first

          People, for the love of God, stop using IE to browse the web. Your IT department should give you a modern browser to use even if some of their shitty custom apps still need IE. It's a waste of Duluth's time fixing stuff for old browsers.

            Probably. Nothing to do with me.

            They were moved in the latest release. All I do is change a few styles over the top.

            Doing any more customisation is not worth the effort

                  Internet Explorer

                  The problems @Hooroo was getting was nothing to do with layout changes. It was actually code that is failing to run.

                  The app was attempting to load, got less than halfway through and then had an error. All the code after that point did not run.
                  So the missing lightbulb and lack of scrolling etc etc is because the app will not work on IE at all

                  I think Nodebb stopped supporting IE ~3 years ago. It's been luck that it has worked for this long. Forunately it is only 0.4% of our traffic over the last year and it's dropping fast (well now I guess it will be 0%)

                  This will happen more and more if your company forces you to be on IE. For instance in a few months Microsoft Internet Explorer will not support opening various Microsoft web apps

                  It's basically dead

                  Kill it with fire

                  Hopefully you can successfully nag your IT team?

                      Stop being so negative and jealous. Some of my work is quite inspired. The upvotes I get can’t all be accidents.

                              If anyone is having trouble posting try a hard refresh or clear your browsers cache.

                                    For sure mate, we have the same at work with some old apps that require IE. But your IT dept should also be giving you a modern browser to use for general internet usage as well. IE for the old system, Edge or Chrome for the internet.

                                      What's a "hard refresh" - what's a soft refresh for that matter and no one said what seamonkey actually means....
                                      I actually haven't noticed any changes!?

                                          Typical. I resigned 6 weeks ago and finish on the 30th. I haven’t been able to use the fern at work since the upgrade as we are on IE.

                                          Just been notified they are updating to Chrome and Edge this week.
