Hi,
on our Sharepoint 2019 we observe strange behavior. In one of our subsite we got top navigation, that is inherited from parent site, and left navigation of this particular subsite. Everything is working fine in modern experience, but when on list we change to classic: left navigation disappear and top navigation gets links from this subsite. And since link to close classic envirorment is at end of left navigation it is impossible to turn it off on this subsite (if you want to close it you must go to e.g. main site)The problem occurs only in this subsite.

What is also interesting, in this subsite it seems like lists are open with different style than main page, but this bug is dependent on browser that you use and occurs in Chrome, but not in IE.

    Hi @Jakub Witoński ,

    What's the site template of the subsite?

    I couldn't reproduce your issue per my test both in Chrome and IE.

    Please try to clear Chrome cache to compare the result.

    If possible, please provide more information about the subsite such as screenshoot.

    Your post inspired me to check how website would look in different style template. And it seams like this bug occur only in Oslo layout, in Seattle everything is fine. It looks like it is impossible for website to work with modern experience with Oslo layout and it's change to default template. That's probably why we experience change in color and style when we change to classic experience.

    Thanks.
