Display Bug since today

[Tyke's Aero blog]

The 'expand screen' button still isn't remembering its last status either. Screen always reloads in the small window when refreshing the page.

Hi,

For spotters the registration numbers, if not the most important, are very important info/data so this new airport (arrivals/departures/on the ground) view on PC doesn't work for spotters and AVgeeks. The previous view was excellent for spotters.

Please revert to the previous style.

Hi all,

First of all, thanks for your feedback and taking the time to contribute your thoughts on our Forum. I want you to all know that Flightradar24 is taking the time to read and consider your comments and appreciates your feedback.

Firstly with regards to the Bookmark issue - We are aware of multiple user reports about this and are currently investigating the route cause of the problem. Unfortunately we've made no headway with this issue at this current point in time, but are still working hard at resolving this. We hope to have a bug-fix release for this next week and in the meant time we appreciate your patience and understanding.

Secondly in response to the many varied comments about the new Airports side panel. We are taking all of this feedback down and discussing it amongst the team. Flightradar24 appreciates any and all positive and constructive feedback about our new design and changes and we encourage you to keep them coming.

Hrm, been removed from my attachment list too.

I see the big banner down the bottom right still, and then had 1 inline the width of the white left navbar about the height of 2 'scheduled' flight info boxes

I saw those plus a second one, bigger, down towards the bottom of the left panel.

Why is it every single time the owners of this site make "improvements" all it does it break everything that worked fine previously and stuff that no-one had any issue with. Why can't they just leave stuff alone? I get shouted at by Mike whenever I call this stuff out but I think it's fair game when none of his "team" of many hundreds of web devs can be bothered to do any QC.

Quit complaining Tyke. We give to this place until it hurts, all the while shedding blood sweat and tears knowing full well that if and when we post an issue Mike will be there lurking in the background just busting to accuse us of all sorts of treachery. Life just can't get any better than this can it?

Regards,
Gregg

Bookmarks problems since 30092017. I have deleded bookmarks and clered case and made new bookmarks same problem. The filter is set with the contents from the latest made bookmark. The map part working fine. Spooky. When you click on a bookmark it start correckt but if it not the latest made bookmark and you click on a plane it load the filter from the latest made bookmark.

I'm not sure if we are discussing two different issues on this thread but I can also confirm the issue re bookmarks which Attigliano has noted.

Noticed it first last night (approx 12 hours ago) our local time and it's occurring again this morning. After testing on Firefox and Chrome I've found it is occurring on both browsers as described above. Any bookmark which includes a filter throws back to your previous view seconds after loading, irrespective of what that view is. Seems to have occurred since and perhaps as a result of this last 'upgrade.'

As a consequence I cannot bring up a bookmarked page which includes saved filters at all.

Using PC with Windows 8.1, Firefox/Chrome browsers.

As for the issue with the 'new' airport info display I find it difficult to use (or see for that matter) and the flight information section which scrolls across it on the top of the left pane is too fast to digest. In the past this came up in a separate window over the existing map but currently opens another page. Unfortunately with the present issue I've described above you don't know what map you will go back to on closing it, especially after trawling through multiple pages of airport/aircraft/flight information. Previously you only had to close it with the cross in top corner, now you need to click back and back and back and .......

It's apparent with these (seemingly) two issues one of them has difficulty remembering the previous status, the other only remembers and activates the previous status.

Regards,
Gregg

P.S. After some playing around I've found it's possible to set up pages with filters, they just need to be done manually and not via the 'bookmarks.'

I can confirm the bug, but I have different variation of it. The icon to expand the screen and lose the left side bar no longer remembers the status. If I expand the screen then refresh the page, the page reloads with the left side bar in place again, thus needing to click the expand button every time in order to view the full screen. This is with a gold sub and a 24" screen using latest desktop Chrome with W8.1.

Why is it every single time the owners of this site make "improvements" all it does it break everything that worked fine previously and stuff that no-one had any issue with. Why can't they just leave stuff alone? I get shouted at by Mike whenever I call this stuff out but I think it's fair game when none of his "team" of many hundreds of web devs can be bothered to do any QC.

Like airnrail, As with prior posts about font/layout/adjustments and general "Fix This!" requests I'm thinking a redesign release (which it appears to be to stop full the heavily scripted screen windows popping up which were rather slow and often didn't display correctly) that people don't agree with. Doesn't normally meet the criteria for calling it 'a bug'

Not to say they don't happen - there has been issues in the past of incorrect CSS code being applied I've discovered after people dropped examples and reported them myself once examples were shown

However - these changes look to be intentional, therefore not really what one would could classify a general.. bug.

And before people accuse me of supporting any changes or being against their views on these changes. Don't
- Like most new thread reports of something being broken in someones eyes, I jump on 'bug' reports on a number of platforms at disposal in attempts to confirm any issues with a technical reasoning to escalate it if I can track a reason down.

Airnrail - Ad displays different to this? (want to see how it varies between regions or screen changes - data served to us is done from different CDN hubs to spread the load)

(I only view on half browsers on my 27"screen, roughly the average page design width to leave room for side-by-side stuff)

[airnrail]

Right now I am using someone else's computer so I am using the free version of FR24 without bothering to log on with this computer and logoff another (but you can logon to the forums on any number of devices). I was disappointed to see that the new airports panel has been designed to perfectly accommodate two adverts and the ones I have seen so far are all related to buying airline flights. I'm perfectly OK with those who don't pay seeing ads - that's the deal.

Why am I disappointed? Most people on these forums would, like me, have a sub and never see ads. Could it be that the redesign came about to provide the screen real estate to enable targeted advertising to those people who might casually get on FR24 to check on a flight they or someone they know is taking? This group must surely outnumber subscribers by a very big margin. And by the way, the ads are much easier to read than the data!

New Airport Information on 4K resolution (with 150% instead of 100% scale) - there is so much space and the flights are not comfortable to read.

But thats not all, if you want to check which aircraft is on ground or even simple things like weather you have to click a 2nd time instead one click to see all. Maybe its possible to get the airportview directly when you click on the pin (like https://www.flightradar24.com/data/airports/lej).
And please remove the jump which I posted earlier
