    Blue? I thought it was red?

    Yes, it's red, not blue.

    It's missing from everything that has been updated in the past year and a bit: new person page, new home page, Search - Records, Find, Following, My Contributions, Search - Genealogies, Memories - Overview, Get Involved - Overview and My Opportunities. (I did not check the Activities menu.)

    Search - Books appears to be missing from the beta site. (The menu goes to the regular site's page, and editing the URL results in the "this is unexpected" error message.)

    I'm not experiencing any problems with beta pages - except I did have to sign in again when trying to get to some of them, e.g. Memories. I am on Firefox whilst responding here, so switched to Chrome to use the beta site. Everything seems to be prefixed "beta" except Books.

    See https://beta.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/M4HZ-R51

    But, yes, I am having to sign-in again when I switch sections, even if I'm still within beta.

    Oh, now I am having problems. I got into the beta site easily enough earlier but am now getting this page when I try to sign-in:

    As far as I'm aware I have not used another password to log into beta - and don't recognise this username.

    Update - no problems with a third attempt - straight in with my usual username / password. Is it me, or are things going weird?

    Further update - I just checked my Account details, using both beta and production versions of FamilySearch and can't find any reference to this username in either. To whom / what does the above relate?

    Further, further update - I think I partly understand the problem now: I'm getting the above message when trying to sign-in to Community whilst on beta. Obviously, there is no link to the production version of Community, as illustrated:
