Issue with Sidebar / Losing titles

LHW99

Difficult to explain this one, but here goes:

When going to a particular forum, eg Work, Benefits & Business the title of the forum is bolded in the sidebar, and the first page lists the topic sections.

If I go to a topic, the forum title is not longer bold but it is listed in the sidebar, and the threads are listed on the RHS - fair enough.

When you pick an individual thread, however, the forum title is no longer in the sidebar.

That means either clicking back through a number of pages (particularly on a longer discussion) or using the link to return to Forum Home to start again.

If you are going to have this awkward (IMO) sidebar I think it should show the complete topic list on the individual thread pages as well as on the two higher levels.

When you are in a thread, you can click back on the topic using the breadcrumb list at the top of the forum just above the thread title. This takes you back to the thread list with the full list of forum titles in the side bar.

Hi @LHW99 - thanks for raising this. The issue with parent category titles not appearing in the sidebar in certain situations is on our radar, and we hope it will be resolved before too long.
