15 isn't an option there - it's 10, 20, or more.

Yes, 15 can only be selected at the site level.

I will change it back to 15, but I'm going to leave it at 10 for the next week to make some observations. Can you hang in there? It's temporary.

Interesting. This post i made yesterday is messed up on mobile, but if I switch to "desktop" mode it's fine.

And it won't let me attach files from mobile so no screenshots till I go to my computer Sad

Edit: it turned out to be the YouTube outage as to why my post didn't display right but it still does not explain why I can't attach photos.

Does it let you go through the attaching process but just doesn't attach them?

I'll look into it.
Chrome doesn't seem to have an issue so far.

Firefox has recently started saying my connection for this site is insecure. I've had trouble with my dns lately so maybe the problem is on my end?

It's not flashing red lights at me, but if I click the address bar in Chrome this pops up:

I don't believe HTTPS has ever worked on this site, but browsers are getting more aggressive about flagging plain HTTP as insecure.
Also, google for instance demotes search results from sites without working HTTPS.
The hosting provider I use for my personal site turned on automatic free HTTPS about 6 months ago.

Oh ok.  
You get that on all sites that aren't listed as https://..... I think

Maybe I need to look into getting that?

Yeah, it's not a specific problem of the site. It's just that Chrome is now taking a hard line on vanilla http. Nothing is broken.  But it's fair in that it points out that whenever you log in, your password could be passed over the internet in plaintext. (The forum software might do client-side password hashing, but I don't know)

Spokes, if you want to get a cert, then your best bet is to check out https://letsencrypt.org/
