Love the new page format!

Hello to all Mods, and kudos on the new format! Loving how intuitive it is, modern looking and, at least on my phone, the fonts are bigger and clearer. Thanks!  :tu::like: :tu::like:

I don't like it either.  I would've replied sooner but it took me a few minutes to figure out how to reply.  (It's the left turn arrow)

Ditto, but it took me a while to figure out how to reply,, I mean it’s ok, but it’s just going to take a while to get used to and figure out, I could use a little larger font on everything,,

This is the theme I have been using for years now and I guess it just became the default :woohoo:

On mobile it is far superior to the other themes offered :salute: :like:

It is the Sunrise theme :cheers: been an option for a few years now and once I got use to it I never wanted to go back to the other themes :salute:

Resizes depending on what device, orientation and screen size you use :cheers:

I’ve never seen the sunrise, well until like an hour ago, and some of the buttons are off, like the reply, there wasn’t, just an arrow, and in order to include your message it’s diff,
As for my pad, all I use is an iPad, I have the font enlarged but that only works like when searching online, coming on here I swear it resizes it so small a sak toothpick can easily cover a line!

You can revert to Shelf-life or SMF default if you want in your profile, but I don't recommend it.

Sunrise has indeed been around ages, but we decided to make it default due to the amount of errors Shelf-life spits out, and we've never been able to fix completely.

Also, sunrise has a one button dark mode... that makes it totally worth it in my books.
The difficult we do immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.

My old format or theme disappeared! 

I seem to be stuck with the default, which may also be "Sunrise".

I don't like it. It seems cold and unfriendly.

Before anyone changes try dark mode, the print is easier to read. There isn't any duplicate photos on the ones my phone actually shows (happens on all sites)  :dunno:.

I'm up in the air on this one.  Had me totally lost for quite a while. I did finally figure out how to post, but now after hearing about different formats, how do I change them to be able to see what's available?

Oh another thing, I have (I guess HAD)
A shortcut on my phone that took me to "unread topics".  I could actually like this new format if I can get it sorted out.

That shortcut is why I stick with the old format.

Click on your icon/avatar at the top left of the page.
A drop down menu will appear. Click on "Look & Layout"
Scroll down and look for Current Theme:.
Click on (change) to see the options.

Thanks for the info, Adam.  Think I've about got it sourced out.  All I had to do was to re add the page in my bookmarks,  still it only takes me to the tool talk page where I have to select "general tool discussion".

I only wish that it would show the un-read topics only.  I'm having a terrible time trying to distinguish between what's been read and what hasn't.

We got the same gripes when we switched to Shelf Life from Curve. Give it a little while and it may grow on you.    :D

 I for one never liked Shelflife and stayed on the old old one Curve up until Sunrise became available so I understand how some of you feel. The reason for the switch is that Shelf life is chalked full of errors which makes life hard for Whoey trying to keep on top of them all the time.
