Mac:
My IE is set as 8.
I havren’t been ready to upgrade.
When is the deadline to upgrade?
What IE you’re using?
Thanks,
Ben -
IE 8 is fine, it’s just not the most recent version.
IE 9 is better browser by far, with better security and support for standard web coding practices.
There’s no deadline to upgrade, but it’s recommended.
I use IE 9 from time to time when I need to pull my PC out for debugging, but I prefer to use Safari 5 and Firefox 4 on my Mac.

I’m trying to use full screen mode however when I go to it the options for link, post, picture (and I’m guessing these are the options) are under my gray dashboard bar, is this a glich wp is working on or is it me????
-
I’m on IE8 and not having any problems and I think it looks good.
The Subscriptions hasn’t worked for me since I joined – I’ve always had to go to the tabs on the main WordPress page. Although I do wish My Subscriptions would just go straight there instead of the intermediate click required.
-
I use Chrome and my dashboard is all askew – teeny font size, especially on the Stats page. I need a magnifying glass. Horrible.
-
Not so keen on IE9. Under the pressure exerted by WP, I upgraded.
Guess I’ll get used to it. LOL
-
Is there an option to increase fonts size in the stats section of the new Dashboard? The font size has decreased after the upgrade yesterday. I do not wish to change my browser’s zoom-in/out settings for this.

The font in the new-look dashboard is so much clearer to read at a glance. A significant advance, thanks.

I have nothing displaying on the WordPress.com page, other than the sidebars and the tabs. Can’t see Freshly Pressed, Tags, Subscriptions etc.
When I FIRST accessed the page, it was OK. Clicked on the Subscritions tab and that was OK – Clicked back to Feshly Pressed – and from that moment on, all display ceased.
IE 9, Windows 7

This new dashboard is a giant step back in terms of usability. In particular, I now have to click twice to log out. What a PITA!!!! One of the cardinal rules of usability is not to make your users have to click any more times than is absolutely necessary to accomplish a task. Please fix that soon!
It appears the font has also changed. It is now smaller and harder to read. You had a well-designed and user-friendly dashboard. Why did you take this giant step backward? Have we WordPressers done something for which we must be collectively punished?
Consider why this phrase became a cliche: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! You had a great dashboard. Please bring it back!

If you push your Ctrl button with you + button then it’ll make the font bigger, Ctrl button and your – button to make it smaller.

OK – I have to say the Subscriptions and other tabs on WordPress.com not working is starting to drive me a little batty. When is this likely to be fixed?
Please do not tell me it is only IE9 – I do not like Firefox at all! :)
-
@teamoyeniyi-It’s supposed to be fixed already, according to designsimply.
Have you logged out, cleared your cache and cookies, closed your browser and then logged in again? Did you maybe try in a different browser? Is your flash player updated?
-
Well, I certainly logged out when I updated to IE 9, but I’ll try again. I don’t have a different browser (I might be the only one who doesn’t).
Hmmmmmmmmmmm – will try again and report back. It was like this before the update of the Dashboard – so the update is not the cause! I was rather hoping it would have fixed it though.
-
Doesn’t appear to be fixed in my part of the world. Each time I access one blog from the Subscriptions tab, I have to close out of the browser to see anything again. Only works the once.
