Stuck on desktop view for this site only

unwashed potato! · 3 Mar 2022 at 11:04

I've clicked something on my phone that's causing this site to be shown desktop view only, but it's only this site, and the desktop view button isn't showing as ticked so its something else. Tried clearing the cache but still nothing.

Help me

As in, for this forum?

Are you using the dark theme? If so there's a hidden "switch to desktop view" link down the bottom somewhere that you can end up inadvertently clicking. If you switch back to standard blue theme then you'll be able to see the link again and switch back.

Definitely that'll be it, but how do I switch to blue again?

Edit. That was it. What a stupid thing that dark theme only has that one way button

It has a two way button - switch to mobile and switch to desktop

Are you using a content blocker or something?

It wouldn’t make sense for me to have it as a result of a glitch, but there is a chance that for some reason your button doesn’t show?

It's the same for me and IIRC Feek mentioned it was a known bug for some using the dark theme in a previous similar thread.

Got the bug with no way to go back to blue layout and/or mobile/desktop.

No blocking whatsoever... cleared cookies too which is strange.

It has to be firefox for the win

I could go back to blue theme (something was just affecting my eyes when viewing dark mode) using preferences though....

Definitely not as I'm in mobile chrome

Go back to blue. Then the link appears. Swap back to mobile. Go back to dark. Is how i did it

Everything in the footer disappears with the black theme for some reason. Dont know why but it's been that way since the theme was introduced.
