Help! My entire page has gone berserk [View all]

When I log onto DU I am getting a big gray area on my screen with a column of words down the middle that looks like someone took a white-out brush to them. I’m not getting the My Stuff page like before and on all other pages, the posts are small and jumbled up.

Right now the area where I am typing this post is about 18 letters wide. It’s a long skinny box.

I’m on an IPad and I was using Skinner mode before and everything was fine. Can anyone please help?

Clear the cache/history/cookies. That helped me out with my Fire tablet the other day when I got the highplainsdem Oct 2023 #1

Thank you so much, highplainsdem! Diamond_Dog Oct 2023 #3

I'm so glad that worked for you! Had my fingers crossed here. highplainsdem Oct 2023 #5

I'm guilty, too. Diamond_Dog Oct 2023 #7

I have the same DU4 problem with having to turn the tablet sideways. With DU3, I had my highplainsdem Oct 2023 #8

Sounds like it's written for a particular device and all others are treated as edge cases. Hermit-The-Prog Oct 2023 #9

Here's the thread I posted in GD, describing the mess I saw on the tablet screen: highplainsdem Oct 2023 #2

That's exactly the same mess I had! Diamond_Dog Oct 2023 #4
