Can't get the site to stay on the Classic design

2,304 778 Yesterday at 12:19 PM
Lately every time I come to this site, it's set to the Redesign layout. I scroll down to the bottom and click on the Classic layout, and it still refreshes to show the Redesign. If I do this 2-3 times it will finally work and stay on the Classic design.

But it doesn't last for long, typically a day or two later I have to repeat the process again.

I have no idea why it's happening, I'm not doing anything weird like clearing out cookies frequently.

It is normal for it to take 2-3 tries to get to Classic from Redesign, but I'm not sure why you're getting pushed back into Redesign after a couple days if you aren't clearing cookies or signing out. Several of us here at Slickdeals use Classic and I'm personally not aware of any of us unintentionally ending up in Redesign that frequently.

Do you have any extensions or anything that could be clearing/deleting some cookies or other settings?

Not that I know of. It's worked fine for years and I haven't changed any browser extensions. Maybe it's possible that one of them updated and now screws around with cookies when it didn't before, but none of them are meant to have anything to do with cookies or browsing history.
