too add to what Taz said,if your using Chrome,be sure your zoom level is below 150 %,preferably around 125 % or less,otherwise the game gets pushed to the bottom of the page,and you have to scroll down to find it.

My Zoom is at 100% on Chrome and my farm is at the bottom of the page--I tried 75%, which moved my farm up a LITTLE, but then I could barely read the writing! I also tried IE --same thing--My farm was at the bottom of the page! I have neighbors having same problem so it isn't just me! I am Just getting so frustrated having to move the sidebar down to find my farm, gifts, ETC! (THANKS for your Input! )

I did try adjusting the screen resolution and it did solve the issue but I couldn't see what I needed to see on the farm. Clearly the screen resolution isn't the answer.

this morning I tried to work a factories and it took nearly a minute just to load the farm. Then it sat there and after awhile the message from the farmer to work factories came up. After another while the mayor came up. There were 11 farms to work which normally with a fast internet should take 5 minutes if that. My computer got connection to server time out.

Something is very wrong in FT. I might be able to deal with the farm being at the bottom which is odd that it is happening cause I was having NO problems. I'd been on FB and FT for half a day with no issues. Then later in the afternoon the farm was at the bottom.

I simply have no patience to wait minutes to do anything on farms. Certainly not if it is going to time out. Oh and yes I cleared my history, I cleared my macomedia files and my mem cache. I don't believe it is an issue with any of those.

Factory manager won't load either. First it said 'factory manager could not be retrieved. do you want to try again?' followed immediately by connection to server time out. so unable to work my quests as well.

Hope this issue gets resolved soon.

Hi Janet amd mpwhitford,
I am sorry you are having this problem. Farm Town has not changed any display size parameters. Facebook has changed the top banner height and may have changed the width on their right column. This has messed up the page layout causing the game to be shifted down the page. Unfortunately this is going to require adjustments between the browser zoom and your screen resolution. The developers have looked at this and can't duplicate it.
Mpwhitford, for your timeout problems try turning your router/modem off for a few minutes to let it clear and corrupt data, then restart it and see if that helps.

same here looks like fb has messed with the sides if you stretch your browser sideways a little it brings the farm back to the top you need it stretched till the side banner shows

this problem would be FB then.

they use <tables> to display stuff and the way that works is

<column>farm town</column>
<column>right hand stuff</column>

since FB keeps fighting with us to make us watch their ads, they define the RHS column so that it must be X pixels wide for their ads. when you make your browser narrower, FB makes the RHS column wider which makes the FT column too narrow to show and so it gets pushed way down under anything that might show in the RHS column.

if you want to get rid of the ads, there's some ad blockers and 3rd party addons for firefox. idk about any other browsers as this is the only one i use.

OR

try making your browser wide but not in full screen (the middle icon on the right of the title bar would be 1 box and not 2 overlapped). then you could drag the browser so the RHS is off the screen. lol

Thank you, that did the trick. FB can certainly be annoying.
