How do I get the old view back?

If you're on a phone like I am now, click on those three dots in the upper right hand corner. Then click on desktop sight.

I hate it when this happens and can never remember what to do but always manage to fumble my way back. Seems like a box appears that has classic view that changes it back.

That sounds a heck of a lot like me. 🙄😁 At least we're probably the only generation of computer fakers, lol, they start teaching kids before they start school, nowadays. 👍

I got really lucky when I went back to school when I was 28 to get a degree in a factory sponsored Ford training program. had already been a wrench/hack for a long time but made it through that to make it official.

After a couple of years all the latest and updated info started going online, then a new diagnostic system came out that was computer based. Despite having never had any experience, I embraced it and ran with it, I hated oldschool auto "tech" so I got to it and learned all I could since it was wound up in my living and working on cars which I loved.
Next thing you know, I can surf the net and pee away $$$ with the best of them. Still don't really know how it works or is designed.

In the upper left corner of this screen capture, there are three lines with “80” in front of them. Click there and one of the options in the menu that appears will be “View Full Site.” Click that and you’ll be back where you want to be.

The “new” view is just the mobile version of the site.

I had this happen to me yesterday - thought I would be starting this thread. I had BF open and then google searched something with (bikeforums.net) in search, it opened a tab in this "new" format. When I clicked back to original BF tab it was now in this "new" format as well. I manged to fix it, but like Merziac said above, I wouldn't have been able to tell you how. Then that “View Full Site.” clue refreshed my memory.
