"Last Post" column width suddenly shrank?


For a day or three now, the "Last Post" column within the major areas has become so narrow it's almost unusable. Any chance it could be put back to the previous width?

Looks fine to me. Could you post a screenshot?

Likewise with me, the columns have been going strange (on & off) for the past day - I've cleared browser cache, privoxy-squid, etc., but same thing. They may look fine initially, but then as I browse the forum it goes "all weird." I'll work on before & after screenshots...

cheers,

mrclisdue,

I think your before and after labels are misleading. If you look at it closely, you'll see that "Linux Forums" (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/index.php) is just fine. But, when you click on any subforum (e.g. Linux) that's when the "Last Post" column shrinks and is too small. And then within the Linux subforum, if we click say "Linux-Newbie" the "Last Post" column is still another width.

I see what you mean now - it's the subforum listings that are shown. If you scroll down to the thread listings, they are normal.

Automagically, everything has returned to normal. I certainly hope this isn't like that noise I sometimes hear in my car, that suddenly turns into a rear axle dropping off the vehicle as I careen down the highway, late for the job interview....

cheers,

We made a change to correct the issue earlier today. Thanks for the heads up.
