Why is everything showing up threaded as opposed to expanded?

I'm having horrible flashbacks to olden message boards.

What do you mean?

Weird. Mine isn't doing that, but I also am using the default. I think that's an issue with the skin. I'm going to switch to the default and that should correct it.

Nope, default skin for sure and still doing that....

 

I have no idea if this affects it or not, but the first visit where this happened was from following a Google search result for something I was looking for.

That's really odd. That isn't happening for me in any threads I view. I'll see what I can find out.

Okay, sorry this has taken so long, but I have an answer.

 

The problem isn't the skin design but, rather, the presentation style chosen through Invision. If you look at the top right of any given topic, you'll see a drop-down box called "Options" that has three different options for Display Modes:

 

"Standard" - This is the display mode that we're all used to on Invision, with each post showing up separately with no differentiation for the originating (or first) post of the thread.

 

"Linear+" - Same as Standard, except that the originating post is separated from the rest of the thread at the top.

 

"Outline" - Here is the display mode that you currently have. The originating post, as well as the last reply in the thread, are separated at the top, with an outline of all the posts in the thread at the bottom of the page.

 

So, anyway, you should be able to fix the issue by switching those display modes back to "Standard" or whatever.

Thanks, and done. I have no idea how I did it originally.
