Am I the only one having problems with Louis' new Blog Design?

Maxine49 · ‎03-09-2010

On the Ask Louis page, I can't see anything beyond July 8 at 6:11 PM. Surely there have been more posts since then---that's over 24 hours since the last post I can see. I have a Mac Book Pro---maybe that's an issue. I just don't know.

@Maxine49 Your "Ask Louis" page is more current than mine. The most recent date displayed on mine is July 4th, 2019. But at the very top, the first entry is dated February of 2010. I'm using a Dell PC tower, Google Chrome is my browser.

On Louis' main page, where the photos of new items are shown, I really like how clear and beautiful everything looks, and I especially like the new larger fonts used on both this and the "Ask Louis" pages.

Like everything, it will probably take some time to "iron out" all the issues.

I think the Feb 2010 date is his initial post on this page and all the replies below have the correct, actual dates and are shown as comments to that initial post. July 8 is the last one.

Not the best layout as a forum, no ability to reply directly to a comment that I can see. Each is just added with the newest at the bottom.

That’s the last post I see, also. I’m on my iPad.

Yep, same for me. I'm on a MacBook Pro.

And, someone please tell me what "larger type" Louis is referring to...the descriptions? The "comments" sections and "Ask Louis" are all tiny type. I do like aspects of the new redesign, but the "numbered" comments and inability to reply to a comment is not as user friendly.

Grace, yesterday my font size was tiny---I had to use my readers, then suddenly today the font was large---very large--almost too large. I don't know what is going on and why yours is not showing as a large font size. I do appreciate that Louis took the time and effort to update his site, but IMHO it's not "there" yet on the Ask Louis page---no more "threads"---just a question and answer---no follow up/linkage without having to ask the follow up down below "out of order." So, if you ask Louis a question and then he responds with a question back to you----no way to insert your response in the space---so if 4 more people have asked questions after you, your response to Louis' question back to you will be down the page with a new number and no connection to the prior question--follow me? Perhaps that design was intentional, but I think it may be an oversight.

The fonts are the same size on the descriptions & Ask Louis sections. I did ask a question yesterday which showed up under the Ask Louis section — asking if the respond box font size could be increased. That font is tiny for typing and seeing what you write. The font size for the Ask Louis section & his blog are fine now to read without enlarging it.

most recent post for me is today, the 10th of july.

yes, the font is much larger.....a bit too large for me, but i can adjust my computer settings so that they appear smaller.

the date and time stamps for replies/questions in order dont bother me.

photos look good and can still be enlarged by clicking on them.

JJM, I don't know what you mean. I didn't enlarge anything---the font just showed up Large---earlier it has been Small. This is confusing.

Yes, the font was smaller when the site was originally up but I think on Louis' end he altered the font size. My question under the Ask Louis section is asking about the reply box font size because that is tiny.

Also for those who want to see older blog entries, that word to click on is now on the lower left of the blog instead of where it previously was at the top.
