New Site

[chokkie]

back at home p.c. now, it's a little easier to use here, but still not that keen on the new format. Why are you using such a large typeface?

[Mick-the-Miller]

I agree the typeface is far too big which now means you get fewer entries per page. I'm specifically interested in the Crossword questions/answers and now you have to trawl through page after page.

I can't see how it's much of an improvement - one positive thing, after the initial load which is lengthy the site doesn't seem too 'lock up' like it did previously.

First time I've seen it and the font is so HUGE!! Are you thinking we are all short sighted old bats Ed ;)

[1ozzy]

ctrl and -

Will reduce the page size

[Ann]

Thanks a lot 1ozzy - that's sorted it! Brilliant .....

[doownelg]

This site is a disaster why do you always feel the need to fix something that isn't broken!!

[Mamyalynne]

Still 20 answers per page.

[Ann]

I quite like it - I've only been on for first time tonight but have found it's so much quicker and with no adverts!! We just have to get used to the layout but I think it's great so far .... and that's coming from one who hates change!!

[Barsel]

I don't like this site at all. The words don't fit in the boxes and as doownelg said, why fix something that isn't broken?

[Ann]

The words all do fit in the boxes on my PC screen Barsel but I haven't looked at AB on my phone yet, maybe the layout will be different on there.

[Mamyalynne]

Most people have fixed that issue Barsel by clearing browsing data - look at a few threads on the topic.

[Mamyalynne]

This one maybe.......

Barsel , press ctrl and f5 at the same time. That should solve your problem. x

>>> The words don't fit in the boxes

Have you cleared your cache to get rid of all traces of the old AB. (Press Ctrl and F5 together, in any browser, if you're using a Windows PC). That's fixed the problem for most people.

As has been said already, pressing Ctrl and - together (perhaps twice) drop the font to a reasonable size on a desktop PC or laptop.

[doownelg]

Normally I just put in crossword example rte 6 which is this week. I got replies for crosswords 2,3,4 2012 2013 etc why. That's not what I want no matter what way I phrase the question still no relevant answers.

[1ozzy]

Clear your cache as per the instructions supplied.

Your browser is trying to load :new: AB along with old.

[Mamyalynne]

There's one here but the search box won't find it as the OP has included the clue in the title.
