Hi all - has anyone else noticed this issue? I think the mobile theme has been changed recently and the presentation on [my site](https://community.namati.org) is all messed up. It appears the site logo is now stretched to fill the width of the screen, overlapping with the menu on the right hand side.

Below are three screenshots - one from how it used to look (a screenshot I took to illustrate another problem which probably hasn’t gone away yet either - I will check it once I get this fixed!) and the next two show how it looks now (notice the logo stretches across, and the rest of the display is all screwy ands impossible to use).

Let me know if you have any suggestions/ideas. I’d appreciate it.

Did you select the Desktop view by any chances?

(_this is the 2nd report we’ve had. starting to be concerned by can’t reproduce_)

I also can’t reproduce (either with Firefox or Chrome on Android) unless I force desktop view.

@tobiaseigen what happens if you force mobile view (either from the menu, or by appending `?mobile_view=1` to the url)?

Whoa - appending `?mobile_view=1` fixed it. Why, I do not know… but thanks! 🚀

What happens if you go to the menu and select _Desktop View_. Do you then get a _Mobile View_ option after switching? If you don’t then it looks like Discourse thinks you’re using a desktop browser…

interesting - I didn’t even know there was a mobile view / desktop view menu item on the 🍔 menu on mobile. It does revert to the weird formatting when I select desktop view. So that is indeed the source of my woes. Glad to have this resolved so easily.

I tried using the chrome menu option to “request desktop site” in response to @zogstrip above.

i see that too but it’s a different issue/change. has nothing to do with my issue which is now resolved.

Same problem happening in my chrome browser too.

Then moderator can split these posts as new bug topic.

It’s been fixed now, sorry about that!

edit: I fixed the Ember regression - if other people are still seeing it revert that is a problem.
