Page Not Fitting Screen

When I first used to visit the site the page would fit the screen with the adverts down each side. Suddenly a few months back the page was coming up wider then the screen with a slide button at the bottom. I'm not quite sure why it changed or what to do to get it to go back to fitting the screen.

Was it changed to fit wide-screen monitors??? Not that I'm that bothered, but I can no longer see any of the adverts on the right of the screen unless I move the slider, but I do like to see the posts in the center so every time I go into a thread I have to slide the page across to centralise the posts which is annoying.

Can I do anything to change it or is it out of my control?

it looks like the site was resized for a minimum resolution of 1200x1024. I agree that it's unfortunate, as I have both a 14" and 12" laptop that don't display anything larger than 1024x768 (which, afaik, is still the web standard for min resolution). but I'm unaware of anything you can do about the display of the website. it may be the forum software itself, not this implementation of it, for all I know.

I agree that it's very annoying. I can't read the posts without sliding back and forth. Subsequently, I read some of the posts and give up after a while. I like to read the posts, but all of the extra "activity" gets to me after a bit. I have tried to shrink the screen size with not result. Glad to know it's not my machine after all. Is there some way to go back to the other way? I bet I'm not alone with this complaint. Thanks

I noticed this issue as well. The user settings do not offer a way to customize it. Minimum resolution has been 800x600, but more and more, web designers seem to think everybody has a huge monitor with 1024x768 or higher. I think I saw the setting in one of the Javascripts, so I'm sure Scott could change it, and wouldn't be surprised if that's why it was.

Thanks all for responding.

Does anyone who is in control of all this actually read these posts I wonder? If not, I can't quite see the point of this section! If they are going to muck about with it, it would be nice if they added an ability to configure it yourself to your own equipment rather than all or nothing!

Hi Ali,

Scott (the administrator) does read this thread--I'm sure he'll check in soon :)

I just tried changing my resolution to 1024x768 to see how the board would be rendered. Yep, same issue. So I figure the board is probably scaling itself larger than the resolution being used (sites have the ability to check the user's resolution).

I hope it is a simple setting and not a mistake in the board's coding, otherwise we'll have to wait for the designer to fix it.

      New onset constant gas

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      First, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this—constant bloating and gas can be incredibly frustrating, especially when you’ve been so diligent with your gluten-free diet. Since nothing obvious has changed in your routine, a few possibilities come to mind: 1) Cross-contamination or hidden gluten (have you introduced new brands, eaten out more, or tried processed GF foods with questionable ingredients?), 2) New food intolerances (dairy, FODMAPs, or even GF grains like corn/rice can sometimes cause issues over time), 3) Gut dysbiosis (an imbalance in gut bacteria, possibly triggered by stress, antibiotics, or diet shifts), or 4) Non-celiac triggers (like SIBO or fructose malabsorption). You may also want to take choline supplements, as this helps some people. It might help to keep a detailed food/symptom log and try an elimination diet (e.g., cutting dairy or high-FODMAP foods temporarily). Probiotics or digestive enzymes could also offer relief while you investigate.

      Gluten free and oat free bars not sugary?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Finding gluten-free and oat-free bars that aren’t overly sugary can be tricky, but there are some great options out there! For your little adventurers, consider GoMacro Kids bars (many are GF/oat-free and lower in sugar), 88 Acres Seed Bars (sweetened lightly with fruit), or The Good Crisp Company’s protein bars (grain-free and not too sweet). For homemade ideas, try simple nut/seed bars with dates, almond butter, and chia—no baking needed! Packaged snacks like Chomps meat sticks, Simple Mills almond flour crackers, or seaweed snacks also work well for hikes. If they like savory, roasted chickpeas or lupini beans are protein-packed and easy to carry. Hope this helps—happy trails!

      Symptom treatment of gluten exposure with Anti-inflammatories

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Using anti-inflammatories for symptom management after inadvertent gluten exposure can be a helpful short-term strategy, particularly for reducing discomfort like inflammation, pain, or swelling. However, it shouldn’t replace strict adherence to a gluten-free diet as the primary treatment for conditions like celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. While NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen) or natural anti-inflammatories (e.g., turmeric) may provide relief, they don’t address the underlying immune response or intestinal damage caused by gluten. Additionally, long-term or frequent use of NSAIDs carries risks, such as gastrointestinal irritation. It’s best to consult a healthcare provider to tailor an individualized plan, which may include digestive enzymes, hydration, rest, and probiotics alongside anti-inflammatories when needed.
