It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

ChrisSD: Yeah I'm using FIrefox 31. The images I've attached show what it looks like for me on the homepage and in the forums: It seems to work fine in Chrome 36.

Gydion: Here's a workaround until GOG fixes the HTML. Use Stylish and apply to the desired legacy pages. Only tested for forum replies by the way.
Thanks! That works for Library as well. EDIT: and Messages.

Anyone else have problems logging out? I have do it twice in order to actually logout. Then again the second time I'm logging out from the front page, new part.

Not so far, but I had to login twice on multiple occasions, regardless if on front page or forum. Odd thing is that the second time, the login screen only asks for my password, sort of a semi-glitch.

Yeah logout is broken for me on the old pages in Firefox. It works in Chrome though.

I'm beginning to suspect a lack of testing the legacy pages in Firefox...

Logging out from the forum It's working for me in Firefox (well, Pale Moon)

That's interesting. Isn't Pale Moon based on an older version of Firefox (the long term support version, I think)?

Anyway, I don't know if this is relevant but this message shows up in my browser logs:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://broker.gog.com//listen/website/website_user_[censored]/. This can be fixed by moving the resource to the same domain or enabling CORS.

It seems that the answer is no. They are using a separate source tree and taking security fixes and new features considered useful but they are rejecting the latest UI change from Firefox 29.

It's always the same story with GOG and Gecko based browsers - same reason the notifications don't work properly on the not-revamped pages.

And speaking of the notifications - I now have the opposite problem, they don't display properly on the new pages, arghh!

Well it sounds like it's more complicated then that. If I understand it right then Pale Moon 24.x was originally based on Firefox 24. Firefox currently still releases security fixes for version 24 so Pale Moon can merge those. Pale Moon also integrates some features from newer version of Firefox (bur not all). So the short answer is that it's a mash-up of old and new.

In any case, I've now tested logging out from the forums in Pale Moon and it works for me too. It still doesn't work in Firefox though. So I guess Pale Moon hasn't yet integrated whatever change that breaks the legacy log out in Firefox.

With Gydion's CSS fix? Me too.

Maybe that's why Gydion said

it will break when GOG fixes the HTML
I rather have the notifications working in the forums that in the new pages.

Really? That's odd. I uploaded a stylish style to userstyles.org. Does this fix it on all pages?

It's a good idea to collect the bugs and other problems in a central place. You might want to add the following to the Wiki:

Search function:
If you're on the home page or a game card the button still opens the quick search field as before. Otherwise it opens http://www.gog.com/games. It is not intuitive anymore. (Of course it's probably not a bug, just a bad design decision)

Library:
If you try to hide a game in your collection and you click on the label more than twice, the description toggles between "hide movie" and "unhide movie".

Library:
If you have all games hidden (or all except one), newly purchased games are not shown in the library. (old problem, before the design change already)

Since it's just one of several bugs with the "old pages" my money would be on bug and it appears as such already.

I had not seen that one. Will add now.

Yeah, I have seen that one reported.
