I’m with Brian.

I like the scroll but agree that disabled should be the default.

Related threads..... time to go disable that.

Glad to see users have the option to configure how they want it.

That's an awesome movie! I watch it every Feb. 2nd with my daughters.

As far as the "Infinte Scroll" option is concerned, I'm glad it can be disabled. It does seem to make the website run a bit slower, but it's hard for me to tell since I generally use the site at work on a government computer. I do know that FTE has always been slower than another IB Automotive forum I'm a frequent member of. We have more emojis and functionality at FTE though. Keep up the good work.

OK. So the forum jump has a bug. So just turn off the new changes until you figure out what the bug is.

Later!

OK. I turned off the infinite scroll feature and the forum jump came back like it was. Guess one was tied into the other.

Later!

The forum jump bug is being addressed in the near future. It does jump to other forums, just not the one you're currently posting it (for whatever reason).

Thanks for posting this option. Was taking a bit longer, 4-5 seconds to load a thread and same on refreshing the same thread. Even if the thread had only a few posts. I disabled it for now but will keep an open mind. Worried problem was on my end but guess not. Now I know what the new feature is will have to grind it around in my mind and determine if it's a feature for me.

So that is why the government is so SLOW.

Why can't they gives us the option to run with less whistles and bells?
It would also be nice if someone ran a poll on what people think of the changes and if they are causing them any issues. That way they might
see if something is a positive thing of not in some of the stuff done in the past. The last great change was not bad. On the top notices when you
use a link in an email alert 9 times out of 10 you don't see the top of any of the forum pages. Then having it the same color makes most people
sip over it and ignore. If they changed the color of something that has a critical meaning then more people would catch it. At least my local road
crew when they change the speed limit put up a new sign and colored warning flags. I can say that would help draw the eye so that more people
would read it. And that would be a good thing.

I’ve done most of my viewing and posting with an iPad, this new setup for me is really hard trying to post in images and editing. Just real awkward.

I use an iPad Pro but not the mobile platform. I always request the desktop site.

The Infinite Scroll is not available on the iPad.

Jack you might try iCab for your browser. It has the ability to set the browser's user agent to one
that you want it to report and that way your not having to find the Full Site link all the time.

Can someone explain the benefit of the forum jump button? It seems a lot slower and more cumbersome than using the drop down menu at the top. The drop down menu is intuitive and convenient.

Off subject question

I can not find any way to post a question, no buttons, no listing under a header. How do I get my question out there?
