I saw the new design this week. Felt a little bit confused, lost and mitigated. Then tonight, the "one" I was used to came back as a miracle. Can't we change ? Are we a bunch of old people sticked to a screen page like we are to an Old Band ? It's funny though : we are always screaming for new songs among the existing catalog but nothing is better thab a warhorse. I am sure this page will be redesigned when The Ultimate Tour will be announced. Thus, shortly.

No offense, but many times in life genius is found in simplicity.

This is crazy, Why is it doing this? I can change my screen but it wont stay that way. I have changed it several times and it will not stay as I set it.

Well, I had my computer tech boyfriend try to FIX this mess for me and we got back to this format, which is a slight improvement over the way it was BUT it's still not great at all! Are we EVER Getting our CLASSIC FORMAT back?? IS BV leaving it this way?? If so, it really stinks!! Can't we make an appeal to get our board back?

D/mickschix, most of us are back to exactly the way it was, I think...I had a bit of trouble getting it, and then, it appeared.

What browser are you on?

Mickschix, please try this:

choose the Classic template (right here on IORR ) in "My Control Center", click submit.
then refresh your screen, by hitting both, Ctrl and F5 buttons on your keyboard.

that's it.



explanation.....xcuse me if you don't need this:

CTRL = Control, located on the bottom row, on the left of your keyboard.
F5 = is on the top row, of your keyboard.

Mickschix, if you tried what open-g said already, have you completely shut down your computer and rebooted it?

OK, so I did that. It did not revert back to the OLD look but it is the way it was yesterday and that page set up is much better than it was last week. At least I can navigate and post, and add new topics etc. The colored background is now stark white, with the pages set up much like they were before with topics running down, top to bottom. Is this what all of you are seeing?

mickschix - I haven't followed your ordeal on this thread, so I don't know if you've done this yet, but have you tried logging out of IORR and then logging back in? That's what worked for me.

Hey, I had a thought! Could someone email me what the page looks like for them ?( and apparently everyone except ME!) I'd like to see if it's what I see! Thanks. ( [email protected])

Can someone please tell me the point of this thread being sticky?

Re: What happened to IORR - the board design?
Posted by: bv ()
Date: June 26, 2009 10:33

This thread is sticky because many people had problems reading the IORR forum following an upgrade recently. It is due to browser cash and other boring computer technicalities. The advice is to do one of the the following two keyboard combinations or activities in your browser,or simply log out and in, i.e. refresh the session:

Ctrl and F5
Shift and F5

I tried both still the same, and I'm happy with that.

Tell you the truth, I never had any problems, for me it's the same as ten years back

I was following this thread at first but now it's 10 pages, so please excuse me for not searching for it myself, but, did BV ever give an exact reason for the change in the first place?

The reason for the change is because this layout - the old one - is going out of production in the forum. We are simply hanging on to the past. At one point it will be gone, may be or probably, I am not sure, but that is the reason why the new one was on by default. So far I changed back into the old one is on by default. Because browsers have they own way of life, you hade to use Ctrl + F5 and/or Shift + F5 if IORR looks weired on your screen.

My response:

Are you saying it will no longer be an option?

It seems when one watches a football game the traditional uniforms are usually more appealing to the eye.

I hope not that the old/original one will disapear as an option.

If you want to get rid of the past you can change/modern the opening page

I thought since you were in New Orleans my comment would be appreciated and understood. The Saints more or less have the same uniforms since inception. Obviousl,y I wasn't talking about the 1940s

I have never said one unkind word to you. I like this format and will defend it.
