Hello all,

In response to your feedback about the font being too small, MSE Ben has fixed it so that the font is now larger. You'll need to refresh your browser (or even close and reopen it) to see the change.

If you're not seeing a difference or you've spotted any other issues, please let us know via the feedback form.

Your feedback is hugely valuable so please do keep it coming. We'll update you on other fixes as soon as we can.

Thank you,

MSE Laura F

It only works on landscape when using my iPad mini, when I use portrait and click on the same part it just turns the little box from white to red. Is there a fix using portrait.

There doesn’t appear to be an easy way to access the ‘latest posts’ unless I’ve missed it?  I use the forum on a mobile phone and I can’t see a ‘latest posts’ link on any of main pages.  It looks like I have to go into a thread and then scroll right to the bottom to find the link.

Can a ‘latest posts’ link be added to the top of the main forum page for easier access?

On the desktop version, this is in the left-hand side menu.
On mobile, there is a dropdown at the top of the pages...if you open this up, you should see the 'Latest Posts' option.

It looks like this:

Could you send us a screenshot either here or to ForumTeam@MoneySavingExpert.com so we can fully understand what you're seeing. Thanks

Why do we have to scroll past a pointless display of "badges" in our profiles to view posts we have commented on? In my profile they fill the whole screen!. What purpose does it serve? Every time I log on I have to do this to follow threads I've commented on. I've asked about this repeatedly and never received any acknowledgement from mse that they even understand what I'm talking about.

MSE Ben has 6 badges, I've got 19. If you look at my profile you might understand the problem.

I've got 13, and I agree, they serve no purpose and should be relegated to a small side bar or clickable link, or moved to the very bottom.

I do however like the blue notification bar that now stays at the bottom of the screen in mobile mode.

@MSE_Ben_H can you please do something about the font size, it hasn't changed no matter how many times I close / open the site.

As I've said when providing feedback during the previous upgrade, I have a decent size phone as it's the only way I access the internet, but i shouldn't have to zoom in / out just to see the 'most recent' titles.

I must be psychic ... I did say my post would get deleted. 🤣😂
