Those bloomin little coloured tags at the top of the page!

ARGH! :mad: The ones that say 'shopping,' 'deals: vouchers' 'utilities; phones,' and 'banking' and so on. They are SO close to the tab you have to click to get back to the forum page you're on, and every time I come on this forum: 1 in 3 times that I go into a thread, and try to come back out by clicking on the 'forum page' tab, the cursor hovers over one of the coloured tabs for a split second, and the drop down menu for that coloured tab drops down, covering half the page! :mad: It's doing my head in! Anyone else have this keep happening?!!!

    Yep, I always end up in the Insurance area. I think they should be at the top where the - weekly email/news/MSE Stuff is ...

    p.s you might want to add this to the 'site feedback' area :)

    Omg, I thought it was just me :rotfl:

    So frustrating!
    Can't think of anything smart to put here...
  • Yes, it IS very very very irritating! It happens to me half the time I am on here. I wish they would move them! :mad:

    Some suggestions:
    • Click the back button on your browser?
    • Or Alt + left arrow ?
    • Or even turn down the mouse sensitivity

    I can't say I've ever noticed... I always open threads in a new tab, so never even noticed that the forum navigation was up there....

    I always use Ctrl+Click to open a thread, so it opens in a new tab. Then one I have read it, I just close the tab, and I'm back where i was.
    If it sticks, force it.
    If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.

    I keep mousing over them by mistake too, If I wanted the links I would click on them.

    Never ever noticed them before. Quite handy. I'll use them now I know!

    You try using a tablet with large fingers.

    I've lost count how many times I've hit them by mistake.
