  1. Want to stretch the screen out when using a large display?

    Now you can. Click the Screen Shot 2015-04-23 at 20.48.50.png button you see at the bottom left of the forum:

  2. What does it do? Nothing on my lap top... :smile:
     
  3. Allows you to resize the browser wider and the forum will widen with it.
     
  4. Just on pc's/laptops/macs?
     
  5. Pretty much, yes. Only benefit is if you have a big display, like a 17" laptop or 21" PC/Mac, then you can fill the width of it with the forum.
     
  6. That works on the PC then :upyeah:

  7. Nothing changes on my lap top - should it?
     
  8. So how do we get this alleged button to display? Which, in case I need to spell it out in words of one syllable, I do not see.
     
  9. Pete what are you browsing on? It shows on a PC/laptop but not an iPad for example.
     
  10. Doesn't show up on 17" MacBook :(
     
  11. Shows up on my laptop but doesn't do anything :)
     
  12. Can you erase your cache and try again?
     
  13. Probably but junked all my passwords when I tried that before - me and computers don't go well in the same room :)

  14. do not have "button" on my bottom left either on my pc
    must be for subscribers only lol
     
  15. I had to scroll down right to the bottom of the page
    and when I clicked on it, it narrowed the display instead of widening it! lol
     
  16. So it's now a fully responsive site that automatically adjusts itself rather than having set sizes for different platforms tablets, phones etc. If you adjust the window size on a desktop/laptop you will see it adjusting. :upyeah: Still hasn't got rid of the blank section on the right hand side, but I can understand it's probably dictated by the template :(
     
  17. Just noticed the content that should be in that right hand side is now down at the bottom still on the right but in the footer, I don't think you mean't it to be like that @Rob
     
  18. Not for me.
     
  19. Can you delete cookies / cache and see if it's still happening?
     
  20. This is on Chrome
