Email notifications of forum posts
I have elected to receive email notifications of posts on forums so I can keep up to date as appropriate. This means in particular that for certain threads I receive an email for every single new post. In principle that's fine, but the number of posts can vary vastly between different threads. In particular, some threads…

Reported posts is feedback provided?
One of my posts was moderated due to been apparently of a personal insulting nature, since I responded to another post in kind, I then reported the post I replied to expecting a unbiased moderation to then delete that post as well. However I have heard nothing, so would like to know if its still sitting in a queue or its…

More Weird Forum Foibles
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6379029/drs-bailiffs-scam-baillif-debt-collection-letter/p17 In that thread you'll find a post by myself (about half way down the page) regarding missing posts by a forum member. Other forum members confirm the same issue. Those missing posts can be found by going to the…

I don't like the design of the website anymore
It used to be better. The forum used to look better too. It's a mess.

Paragraphs and line breaks
Am I the only one who finds it frustrating that line breaks are doubled up when you submit a post? The editor looks like a WYSIWYG editor, yet it isn't. If you enter two newlines to start a paragraph, it results in a huge space in the final post. If you leave a single line break, it turns into a new paragraph with spacing…

Money savings Mums and Dads
It's my humble opinion, and a couple of other folk agree with me, that the "Money Saving Mums" and "Money Saving dads" forums are unhelpful and should be rebadged. The mums' group is filled with topics (e.g. days out with kids) that are not specifically relevant to mums, which may mean people miss them or feel excluded.…

I would just like to point out AGAIN that Freecycle in this country has been mostly replaced by Freegle which is a UK based charity and has close to 500 separate groups across the whole country so would MSE towers please switch to Freegle when they are talking about stuff for free. Just to add that all bar about 60 groups…

Don’t have permission for a signature
Hi, I’ve had to go back to a very old “spare” username that I set up about 10 years ago for a personal matter, as I can’t get into either of my more recent ones (original one wouldn’t work after site upgrade a few years ago hence second one). I wanted to put a signature about my previous usernames but in my profile it says…

'Most Recent:' isn't always correct
When looking at the board index page - forums.moneysavingexpert.com/categories - sometimes the information given about which thread has received the newest post and who made that post is not correct. Here's an example... this is currently the most recently updated thread on the Public Transport & Cycling board... ...we can…

Search doesn't... search?
I've noticed recently, the MSE website search function simply doesn't work? I tried searching for your car "hire" guide for example... it says there's zero results, and auto-corrects it to "have" ? Going through google, results to your guides come through fine though? Is this a known issue... or user-error? :D

Notification when someone replies to your post.
Hi everyone, Don't post on site very often now chats gone. *Back in the day* when you wrote a post, you could set it to send an email to say if someone had replied. Isn't that option available anymore? I can't find it. Thanks Candy P. S. Miss the old forum layout, and chat.

Can’t view posts with a single line title on iPad
When a post has a single line title, clicking on it sets/clears the bookmark instead of going to the post. A title that wraps around to 2nd line (or more) can be clicked on fine. The only workaround I have found so far is by going to the first or last posters profile and going via their discussions or replies.
