In my browser (Chrome) the link to post a new thread is not visible unless the browser has a very large window. There is no horizontal scroll bar and the that link is the ONLY thing that isn't shown in a smaller window. Much text to the right of that link is shown. Something is wrong.

I am having the same issue with Chrome Version 69.0.3497.81 (Official Build) (64-bit)
after clearing browser data.
Firefox has same issue as well.
@JoshDW19 HELP!

It kinda looks like it's being hidden by the search bar...

However, do you guys not have the one at the bottom:

Funnily enough, reducing the window width even further makes the top button reappear:

It seems to have self corrected (for me) and is now appearing both in Chrome and Firefox :confused:

The CSS has a number of "common sizes" defined and when those dimensions are satisfied the CSS adjustments come into effect. I personally am not a huge fan of segmenting in this way, and would prefer that various things change size, and only when that is ineffective, should things rearrange or be omitted. I also do not design CSS the way many suggest I should, that is to favor small form-factors and then build upward. I do the reverse, I favor adapting to the largest screen (such as a 1472x1017 browser window) and test to see how it appears at smaller dimensions. Where necessary, I make changes, and if at all possible I would keep them limited in number so that the bulk of the page would render unchanged.

I cannot say because it seems that most often complaints relate to the 'default' theme here, but I would hope that my themes do not have such hiccups.
