For me, trust in any theme is gone. Now it was infinite scrolling, next time it might be something else...
However, hope dies last :-)

Thank you very much for the link.
I have to keep it as it is for a while. There is no time for creating a new header size, adjusting pages, sidebars and all that work. :-)
"Infinite scrolling" - really, there is only one word for it: sigh :-)

Thanks for the link.
The problem is: the same content column width is not all.
Even the smallest change of font, or change of font size will change the layout of all articles, as all images and text are adjusted to each other - to each single line, each single letter.
And: nobody can guarantee that something similar won't happen with a new theme someday...

You can still change your theme—or you can live with the vanished footer and infinite scrolling…

sigh…

And of course "trust" in any other wordpress theme is on zero now.
We now know something similar can happen at any time again - with any theme.

I'm sure there's a list of content column widths somewhere on http://wpbtips.wordpress.com so good luck!

I feel with you :(
Changing the theme is impossible for me - I had the switching process once, but now I have much more articles than before - adjusting them once again is simply impossible.

It's incredible.
I have seen that the thread you mentioned is closed for new comments.
Unbelievable that this feature can't be removed.
Changing to a new theme is simply impossible, as all formates would change then too, all text and images adjusted in hundreds of working hours wouldn't be 100 % the same anymore, I am speaking of experience.

I am speachless.

My blog has been ok since last night.
Now there seems to be another bug...

Out of the blue, ALL posts are shown on my start page, and that looks awful.

Settings:
Read: 5 posts
No changes from my side.
It happened automatically that now ALL posts are shown on my start page.

Can anybody help?
Thank you very, very much in advance.

Yes, that's it: when you set static page A as your front and static page B as your posts page, then B becomes a link to your latest posts. When you set your front to display your latest posts, page B reverts to being a simple static page.

You described the current situation correctly.
But - I want to change that! I want to have the articles on my front page. The problem is (as I tried to describe above), that when I configure the articles page "logbuch" to be displayed as frontpage, a warning shows up on my dashboard and it DOES NOT WORK. Thats why I changed it back in the current mode.
I tried to set the front page to "your articles page" - but then this front page is empty!!
I hope that I was able to describe my problem more precise than in my original post.
Regards,
Jo
