I'm confused - I think all screens list topics vertically regardless of platform. Can you expand a bit more on the issue?
The topic or folder goes vertically down the page a couple letters at a time. You can't read it normally horizontally.

Oh - you're not in tapatalk - I thought based on the quote you used from me that you were in tapatalk. I would highly suggest you download (for free) tapatalk. I'm working on readability for mobile devices, but the quickest and most simple solution is taptalk.

tapatalk works fine for me on my tablet when I access the Sun Belt board, but it does not for this site.

I've adjusted the 'recent topics' that you see on log in (shows the 5 most recent topics to be posted in) to show only the 5 most recent unread topics. Again - to see the first unread post in a topic, click the yellow Yosef head. If you see no recent topics - you have no unread posts.

Like others have said I would like to have the "Mark Topics Read" feature back.

Ah, I was looking for it above the Recent Topics section on the main MMB page where I use to see it. I didn't notice it in the other locations.

There's also the "Mark Forums Read" button just below the recent topics section on the main MMB page. That will clear your unread messages.

No - if your desktop computer is having problems - there's a bigger issue as this should be displaying fine on all desktop computers. What browser and what version of that browser are you using?

I think you must have some plugin installed in Firefox that is causing the site render improperly. I use Firefox (as well as others on the forum) and I don't know of any other issues. I'll keep looking into it, but I'm thinking it's related to your browser and not the site.
