Stupidly clicked on the toggle button to try the New Home page. Hate it, and much prefer the old look-and-feel. Now can't find any option to reverse/disable that change and go back to the Home Page as it was.

Is there any way to restore the previous look-and-feel? Thanks (and as a former software developer, quite annoyed). - Shain

    Hi,

    I've just tested on my account and you should still see the toggle button on the top right to enable you to switch between the two versions of the home page.

    Here are some more details and a description of what you see on each page.

    Thanks

    Thank you both so much, Kevin & Brett! Didn't expect such rapid responses. So ... I'm not seeing the toggle switch show up for some reason using both Firefox & Brave browsers.

    Now, I've had issues occasionally accessing websites (and in the past, some functionality on FamilySearch) because we've configured and are using a VPN Server (ProtonVPN, specifically). The only way around this is to use the Tor browser.

    So, I tried that -- and voila, the toggle button indeed now appears on the new Home Page! At first glance, it's much more robust that what little was being presented on the new Home Page (because of VPN), so my criticisms of it may be premature.

    Cheers!
