OFFICIAL Display Issues, Preferences, Sounds and Music

[Taz D]

This Thread is for posting issues about display, preferences, sounds/music. Please read the information here before you post. Thank you!

There will be some profile pictures missing for some farmers who created a new account and/or don't have a Facebook account to be able to get a picture uploaded to the website:


Some common display issues on FT can be fixed by:

• Clearing your cache.
• Right clicking your mouse on the farm screen and selecting "Show all".
• By adjusting your browser settings to 100%.
  or Pressing "CTRL" and "0" (zero) on your keyboard resets some browsers

For anything to do with Preferences see Chapter 03 - The Preference Bar
NOTE: The Show Coins and XP animations is still disabled at this time so you will not be able to turn off the recently added animations when using the mobile sprinklers and manure spreaders.


To turn off the Sounds or Music in the game :

Move your mouse pointer over the sound icon and another icon will drop down, the music icon.

To turn all sounds off, click on both icons to turn them red.

Suggestions for Preferences post in Settings/ Pop ups/ Preferences/ Filters

This thread is for players to report problems only.

Does anyone have any info on this?

Hi Kongo,
You won't be able to switch back to the classic version and I am surprised you have been able to use it this long. You do not have to go through the gaming tab at the top of the page either.

You should be able to get to Farm Town from the link in your shortcuts in the left column of your Facebook home page or from the Play FarmTown button at the top of the forums and get the correct page layout.

Not sure if this is the right place but having an issue with the Menu that pops up on fields etc. I can't click the arrow on any plot to move the farm without the little menu popping up. I've been trying to stick to bare ground but on most farms I don't have much bare ground. Is there any way to stop the little menues to stop popping up so quickly?

Hi Riap,
If you are holding the left mouse button and it is not locking on to move the farm around then this sounds like a mouse problem. If you are using a wireless mouse try changing the battery. If you are using a wired mouse try another mouse. This would be a switch problem for the left mouse button switch.

Thanks Ta,
Didn't give the mouse a thought. I'll try new batteries but I did drop it the other day. Hope I didn't damage it. It is wireless.

At my end everything is working fine, except that now and then the neighbors at the bottom of the screen do not show up

Hi Danker

I moved your post to the thread about Display issues.

When this happens, can you see your neighbors pics in your My Neighbors tab and also in your Wall Requests if you want to work their facilitie?

If you dont see them in non of those places, then it maybe a problem transfering data from Facebook to the game.

You can try clearing your memcache, a new window will open with a short list of unsettings. Close that window and your farm if it is open in another tab. Then reopen your farms.

Hi Mary,

Yes, I see pictures in all locations, except as I said sometimes in the neighbors bar. This does not happen always, only from time to time, and most of the time only in one farm of all my farms, at random. Akso, happens in all browsers I use (Chrome and Opera).

Now, I just cleared memcache, and now eberything is normal, neighbors are back in the box where they belong :).
In the future, I'll do this memcache - never thought about it until now!

I hope it stays this way.

Thank with regards,
Danker
