    What happend to the Forum format?

    I'm getting a VERY basic formatting with VBulletin in the upper left corner? Some of the page and formatting tools aren't there? (I'd post a screenshot of the way it looks but I don't have the "tools" to do so)

    Is this just me? of is there a larger problem?

    I've double-checked your member status and there's no reason you should see anything different.

    Not knowing what device you're viewing on (and even less about any device other than my own), I can only suggest a re-boot or whatever passes for that on what you're using.

    Have you tried it with only one device? If so, try logging in with something different.

    Further testing:

    Same Computer - Works fine on Firefox, but not on Chrome where its always been. Chrome is also my main browser, so very irritating...

    For what it's worth, I use Chrome, and it works for me. Perhaps reloading and/or updating Chrome might be worth a try?

    I'm not sure why vBulletin sometimes serves the mobile site to desktop users, but it's happened to me before, here and elsewhere. I suspect that is what is happening to outlawmws.

    If you can find a "Full Site" link at the bottom of the basic-formatting version of the page, that should take you back to the desktop version of the site.

    And that was it! I bet I never scrolled down that far or if I did I never noticed that sandwiched in there...

    Thanks Yah!

    yeah, freaky weird, I just got sucked into the basic vBulletin format world and I didn't like it at all. Fortunately the "full site" link brought me back home, but wtf?

    This happens to me from time to time. You have to scroll down to the bottom page and select "Full Site." I believe the site thinks it's on a browser maybe when using Chrome somtimes.

    Re: What happend to the Forum format?

    Yes I did. For some reason it would only let me respond to existing threads. I logged out and back in and I was able to. Thanks! Oh and sorry to everyone for making a new thread. I figured out how to search better. Get ready for all my Fun questions. I have had vans for a while now and grew up in the back of one. Parents got a brand new LE in 1984
