Re: New Forum Look

If you visit this forum on a regular basis, and Internet Explorer is your browser of choice, then no doubt you'll have Internet Explorer set to use 'Compatibility View' when displaying the Norton Community forum pages in order to ensure that the forum pages render properly.

 

With this new forum update, however, it appears that using 'Compatibility View' is no longer necessary. So, if you are having issues with forum page rendering, check your Internet Explorer's 'Compatibility View' setting for the 'norton.com' site; if it's turned ON then turn if OFF. Under Internet Explorer 9, browsing this forum is much better with 'Compatibility View' turned OFF.

Re: New Forum Look

Hi folks.

 

Just an update...

 

At the time of this post Forum web pages are loading very slowly and I am still having problems copying/pasting.

Last night was much better, though inconsistent at times.

 

Anyone else experiencing these issues? Is there an idea when things will be ironed out?

 

TIA,

 

Atomic_Blast :)

Hi,

No quotes, no promises but I'd be very surprised if the team didn't have a few things up their collective sleeves, other than their arms, to try next week to see if they can fill in the potholes and make this information highway a speedway again. The current cart path has it's moments but .  .  .

Stay well and surf safe

Re: New Forum Look

Hello

 

Since I have turned off the compatibility mode in IE 8 and xp pro, the pages  have been loading just as quick as they used to. I have also just noticed that the reply box is not jumping as I am typing this and the autosaved is turned on. I have also noticed that the autosave keeps on updating the time of the autosave. I believe that the updating of the time has stopped the jumping up  and down of this posting. Yaahoo !!!!:womanvery-happy:

Thanks for confirming that the earlier suggestion to turn OFF Internet Explorer's 'Compatibility' view/mode setting for this Norton forum site has improved your Norton forum browsing experience under Internet Explorer 8.

Re: New Forum Look

An interesting discussion.  

 

I can't help but wonder why the changes were introduced.  If it was to improve performance, why we were not told.  If it was to look better then ... ho hum.. this is a discussion forum.

 

Or am I being a bit ....

 

Maybe I do not want anyone to respond to this post.   ;-)

Re: New Forum Look

Someone must have found the loading problem and corrected it because my page loading speeds are almost back to normal. 

Windows 7 Home SP1 - IE 9.0.8112.16421 - NIS 2012 19.9.1.14 - Ghost Ver 15.0.1.36526 - Dell Optiplex GX280 PC.
