I must be doing something wrong but for the hell of me…

Over the past couple of weeks I have reduced my bookmarks down to 9 from about 30 The problem I have is it says 13, I have tried everything (i think)…

Two Alerts for Private Message
A private message now creates two alerts, one on the envelope symbol and one one the bell.

Not tested the other…

Now not even getting the weekly MSE Newsletter
Can @MSE_Laura_F, @MSE_James, @MSE_ForumTeam5, or @MSE_ForumTeam2 (or anyone else from @MSE), tell me why I'm now not even getting the weekly MSE Newsletter, please? I have no idea if this is connected with the fact that I'm still not receiving the email notifications for the forum.

Search next button not working
I have tried this on two browsers now. When I search for posts it comes up with say 57 posts available but when I click next at the bottom of the page it won't go on to the second page. So I can only see 10 of the results. Any idea why? same happening on Chrome and Firefox. Thanks.

Alert (Bell Symbol) Showing Unread On Other Pages
Does anyone know exactly what clears the notifications on the top right? Quite often I find I'm clicking on the notification only to find it's a post I've already seen. Sometimes one I've seen a couple of days ago. As an example I looked the the forum this afternoon, there was an alert for new comments on a thread from…

The word 'Report' has disappeared from below every post
Below most posts there are three clickable 'things'. Namely... Quote, Thanks and what used to be named as Report. The word Report appears to have been lost when the forum appearance changed a few weeks ago. Was that a deliberate intention or was it something that perhaps should not have happened? Whilst looking at those…
