If you select customise hot tab - view options "text only" and save.
This then works ok for viewing the hot tab.
But when you then select the "new" tab, you have to request text only, again.
Can your initial view preference be saved for the whole site?

    I think the point is that it is a "custom" setting &, hence, may be different from the rest of the site browsing options.

    However, you may be right that it should default to whatever the existing setting is on the initial use of the [custom] tab.

    To be fair, it is not a huge problem.

    Plenty other issues with the site exist that cannot be resolved as quickly as simply resetting a viewing option.

    If I select "Text Only" it remembers this across the site and not just in "Hot".

    Are you saying your "Hot" tab displays "Text Only" (based on your custom selection) and the rest of the site for you shows "Full Details" as your view?

    If so, which skin are you using?

    Yes exactly that, standard skin, does the same with IE and firefox, cleared cookies - same

    not a major issue just odd that once you choose the text only preference, you have to choose it again

    Sorry, just to clarify, when you say standard, you mean the new (better and beautiful) skin?

    It also happens in the "old" (still better) skin too.

    yes the current skin, not the old one

    although looks like FP has tested the old and got the same result

    When you select text-only view (for the site, not just your custom tab) does it not remember it next time you open your browser?

    Yes. The point money-talks was making, I believe, is that if you set your viewing option to "Text only" and then select the [custom] tab, the initial view is "Full Details" here.

    I thought it was the other way round: viewing site in Full Details then clicking on Custom (which had been set to Text Only) but reverting to Full Details when clicking on something other than Custom. I thought if you viewed the whole site in Text Only it stayed like that unless you clicked on Full Details.

    I never use text only so I'm dibbing out of this one. My brain hurts.

    I do use "Text only". [custom], when I click it, shows the "Full Details".
    money-talks
    Yes text only is the only way to go for me, otherwise forever scrolling down a very long list,
    On a pc or when on the ipad its a must

    the only thing you don't see really is the picture, which does not matter when browsing for a thread to read
