      Blimey @Fat Controller going by Jiffy's post it seems your 'private' postings as admin are being made publically visible, that must be the forum software/server gone bad rather than individual member setups.

      Edit; I take that back - your posting was in another public thread - silly me for pressing the panic button.

        Mine has been going rather odd on mobile, smilie thread the "agree" "like" etc are all listed vertical rather than going horizontal and big spacing between username/pic and the posts..and another thread, forgot which one sorry.. not a major problem. That's on samsung s6 chrome browser, think it happened on chrome on Acer Chromebook too. All threads I've been on today so far are fine though :)

          I noticed problems on the Smilies thread a while ago, and thought it was just there, but there are problems with the way 'Forums' page is displaying with

          1) Android and Chrome
          2) Win 10 and MS Edge
          3) Win 10 and IE
          4) Win 10 and Chrome

          So I think it's something other than a browser issue

          Stuff is displaying all over the place

                I'm having exactly the same problems as the others. Wouldnt like to comment on the cause though, computer problems are not at all my thing.

                Appears to 2 be issues (so far):

                1) Forums page layout +
                2) Ironically, all of the posts in the 'Bugs' board aren't displaying properly, again this doesn't occur if logged out. Site Feedback/Bugs

                  Has a html command been knocked out of align..?
                  I used to have a webpage years ago and if one thing was out, the whole page would look funny. Ahh the days of free hosting/being "in a band".. I'm going back at least 13/4 years mind :redface:

                    Based entirely on guesswork and purely circumstantial evidence, I accuse the 'Forum Smilies' message at the top of the 'Forums' page of being guilty for everything.:th scifD36:

                      Android and Chrome is fine on my phone, which kinda suggests that it isn't a specific OS or browser issue.

                      I have de-featured the threads so the messages will disappear to see what happens, but I doubt it will make any difference, as there has been a featured thread notice there for ages

                        I don't see the problem is with Gardeners Corner else everyone would experience it surely.. :scratch: It seems to be working fine for most people.. I have looked in through Chrome and Safari on all my machines and phone and it is fine on them all.. :scratch:
