Paul in AZ 27 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 What happened to the sidebar with the newest posts? This was a useful way to see what was active and frequently led to an informative topic that I wouldn't ordinarily search for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Golf Griller 944 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 It's still there on the right side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul in AZ 27 Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 Not on my screen. I have done nothing to my computer or to the site. WTF? How do I get it back? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At the very bottom of the page you should find a "theme" drop box. Choose something there and see if it fixes it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philpom 7,494 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 are you viewing from a phone or tablet? The mobile site doesn't have the side bar. Check for full site settings in browser settings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Setzler 14,823 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 That doesn't display for me on my tablet, even when using tha standard mode instead of mobile. Tried making your browser window wider. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul in AZ 27 Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Computer. I use a Mac. No mobile devices. Could there have been some tweak to the interface that keeps me from seeing it on a Mac? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Setzler 14,823 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I dont' think so. I am on my PC right now and I can see it. It's only visible from the home page screen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Setzler 14,823 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 @Paul in AZ Do you know how to use the new content feature? I prefer it to the side bar... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philpom 7,494 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 A screen shot may prove helpful to make sure we are all on the same page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Could there have been some tweak to the interface that keeps me from seeing it on a Mac? are you using safari on your Mac? try enlarging the window. On my Mac, if I reduce the safari window size, the side bar disappears. I haven't mucked with any of the site settings, i.e., I use the default settings Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul in AZ 27 Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Using Safari. I've widened the page as far as I can and nothing changes. 'Theme' settings don't change anything. A recent change in the site is the commercial banners at the top of the page. They are now over a foot tall on my screen. Related? This may be more trouble than its worth.

Golf Griller 944 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I'm using Firefox on my iMac and don't have any problem. Also, once I log on, I don't see any adds at the top of the page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul in AZ 27 Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 BINGO! It was the size of the banner ads that caught my attention. Having failed to change anything by elongating the image I played with the magnify/minify keys on my keyboard [F14 and F15]. Hitting the minus button several times the sidebar appeared. I also no longer see any banner ads on top. How it got to be magnified is a mystery because I literally never use those buttons. Success.
