These are my current uBlock Origin rules which make MSE much cleaner, in case they help anybody:

forums.moneysavingexpert.com##.mainNavHeader
forums.moneysavingexpert.com###header

Those 2 can be replaced by forums.moneysavingexpert.com##.mse-tools-masthead to achieve the same thing.

There was no thanks option now while looking at this thread suddenly there is

Looks like it's been fixed . Apologies for misinterpreting what you said 🐶

New site is absolute c!!!.
Cant log in now with my original info etc, no reply when using the contact us link, lost all PM's and probably now locked out of the credit check and energy clubs, what a joke.

I wouldn't go as far as that Andy!

Different, early days so best just to post (somewhere) feedback to see if things can be tweaked. Probably some can some can not.

My first comment.....why did I get so many emails about two or three threads (tvl thread and an on grid thread)?

Suggestion make subject 'MSE forum.....' Rather than 'Money Saving Expert forum......' as we all know it is mse and it certainly would fit far better on my tablet email inbox window so that the actual thread subject is more visibly obvious!

Thank you. I had to guess how to implement your suggestion but got it sorted within five minutes. I can voice dictate by Dragon straight into the response box and benefit from Grammarly.

Load of absolute crap now. Perhaps ML and associates, get a discount for turning a once useful site into a dogs dinner. Better get their heads out of their butts as I see new joiners lasting less than a single session

It's only those who can't get their heads around the change that won't last.....New joiners won't know any different and it's the same as many other forums.
Once they've tidied up a little, it'll be fine....

On the old forum your user name was shown at top of page - you could click on it and see what and where you posted/replied to - is this gone as well now?

The Bit In Bold was the missing piece. Still not 100% but much more usable now.

Stupid layout.  How can I tell if a member is online?
Why is the Bookmark in the main list of threads and not in the actual thread itself?

If I wanted to bookmark this thread I want it to be visible here somewhere, not having to go back
a page.

Why is the reply box double line spaced?

Anyone found a way to remove the stupid bookmark icon off the main thread listings? Its a clumsy/messy/stupid layout.


Partially answered my own question about the bookmark links silly location...
##.Options
But edit buttons use the same code.... How to remove just the bookmarks icon?

Bit of a puzzle, I can’t access the forum on my iPad at all. It worked perfectly until the forum changed and updated. I can access using my phone and have tried clearing cookies, resetting network settings and a general reset on the iPad but still can’t get the forum pages to load . The main website will load but I just get a blank page whenever I try the forum.
