Quick navigation dropdown gone (Working like it used to!)

What are you viewing on?  It's back for me on a win 7 laptop with Firefox.

Dropping down for me, too.

That's not the "dropdown" I'm talking about.  Sadly, since it no longer works, I can't post a screen shot of it!

I have that bar, it's always there.  However, there was a second one that only appears when you scroll in a topic or index, that one is gone and does not appear any more.

This one is NOT what I'm talking about!

Never mind, I'll make it work like it is now.

I’m with you John, it’s lane the drop down is gone. It was super convienient

Sorry to be a pain, but can you explain how this is "fixed" when it still doesn't appear.  Is the "fix" simply that it's gone?

I'm w John on this one....is there a plan to put that menu feature back?

Are you talking about the drop down that appears when putting the cursor over the 'OGR Forum" in the top line above?

Thats the one that wasn't working on my android or desktop,  but it now works since Rich fixed it.

Works OK for me...

Clear your cache and cookies.

It works for me!!!

Thanks Rich...

Has always worked okay for me with all Windows 10 and Firefox updates including the latest Firefox update of just two days or so ago.

GRJ, this post of yours has piqued my interest. Specifically, what second bar are you referring to? Other than drop-downs, the bar you show is the only full width bar, other than the URL bar, that I've ever encountered using Win 10 and Firefox for this forum and it's always been located at the top of the page just below the URL bar.

Since it's gone and I can't find a screen shot of it, it's probably time to close this.  I think we're beating a dead horse at this point.

Are you talking about the menu that drops down from the "+" next to search?

No, it's time to drop this, I'm unsubscribing.

I hope you're kidding about the unsubscribe.

I wish you could tell me what you're missing! I honestly do not know what "drop-down" you are talking about.

Add me to that hope. Half my layout has to do with solutions and suggestions from John.

Rich,

There used to be a line that only appears after you scroll in a forum that dropped down with navigation. I'd love to show you, but it's gone!

I figured out I can do the same thing using the on the line that always sticks at the top, so I'm just doing that.  I just didn't know why that behavior changed.  However, I'm all good, I've learned a new way to do the same thing.

The "unsubscribe" was just to get the peanut gallery off my back, I think you can close this one now.

FWIW, I just thought I'd post an update.  For whatever reason, the disappearing bar I mentioned it back like it used to be, and I captured some images for the doubters.

Note no dropdown bar.

As soon as I scroll, I get the dropdown bar.

I always got the bar in Windows and I think it was without scolling.  Android puts it in a dropdown "hamburger menu"(horizontal bars) in the upper left. Occasionally I see a Windows version, but it doesn't work. I refresh and it usually behaves again. I'm betting there was a glitch on reading the user agent and Windows couldn't load it all correctly.
