Cool

Please read threads from the top if you are popping in for the first time.
I already explained what is going on.

they can't estimate how long it will all take, but we will be offline from time to time.
there will also be brief periods when it doesn't look or act the way it's supposed to.

patience, grasshoppers.
hang in there and it will all work out eventually.

i don't know yet.
i'm sure they will make some adjustments to colors because I have explained the need for that to the tech team.

don't ask "when?"
I don't know.

it will all settle down eventually.

Even doing that, it is still hard to read. Also on my home computer, I don't get the formatting options that I used to.. ETA-- the format tools are back, but only if editing, Yeah!

Or hold down the ctrl button and use your roller on your mouse.

It is on the hard to read green lettering on the second bar across the page -- on the far right. If you are like me and enlarged the font to help be able to read the page, you will need to use the scroll bar at the bottom of the screen. I think there might be another way on mobile devices to move to the far right of the page.

Thanks for the info, Patrice. Will the last several days of posts be restored? I hang out in challenges and we're missing the last 3 or 4 days of posts in those forums.
