Isn't there a button which says 'Advanced view' any more? (Genuine question: I'm still using v5.10.13 as I'm happy with it, so I haven't seen the display on v5.10.28 yet). ID: 674722 ·

Yes but the advanced view doesn't have the buttons and the few it has don't work. Seems totally stripped down or I did something wrong which wouldn't surprise me...

[quote] Maybe there is special code just for button abusers? Ha that is it...I bet you reported me....LOL...will figure it out and everyone have a great weekend!!!!!! I'm glad you took that in the spirit offered. I somehow doubt that they can serve different button sets to different users without heavily modifying the BOINC code. Seriously though, the buttons (and the URLs to go with them) come from the project, so I wouldn't be surprised if they magically fixed themselves next time you update, and if you just wait, BOINC will request an update sooner or later (i.e. sometime in the next day). Reinstalling isn't a bad idea either, and it'd be interesting to see what happens either way. ID: 674743 ·
