      A few minutes ago I upgraded my installation to 2.1.5 and other than a few restart hitches it seems to have gone reasonably well.  One problem that I haven't resolved yet is that the positioning of the new help menu is immediately below the system menu and results in blocking the system menu so that I can't log out or access any of the other menu items on the system menu.  The help menu immediately takes priority and prevents access to the System dropdown.  Is there a way to configure the main menu to move the help menu item to the end of the horizontal menu options list? :-\

        Yes, this bug in 2.1.5 makes pfSense unusable.

                  In your browser, change your font size smaller. Then you can access the menu.

                  Double whammy here with upgrade. Upgrader installed the vga version so Web gui is inaccessible and no console.

                    I need to hide the Gold menu to make it work for me by editing the fbegin.inc file. Cleaning cache is no solution.
                    now it looks ok again.

                    Can you fix in next release?

                      It's been fixed in 2.2 for months.

                      If you are still on 2.1.x and on a BSD/Linux release that has the problem, installing the Tahoma font should fix it. Either that, or remove Verdana. Installing Tahoma is easier and less likely to cause a problem though.
