One random thing that I'm sure probably isn't possible, but....

Would it be possible for the 'mark category read' and 'mark forum read' links to be further apart?

I hit the wrong one last night, which was somewhat annoying.

LOL I do that all the time choosing Latest threads amongst others in the drop down menus

Hi @J_B

Could I ask what format this is most a problem on? (e.g. mobile, desktop, certain screen sizes?)

The problem is that our new theme does not support the Mark Read system yet (I'll check with out provider what the status is of this).
So we had to squeeze it back in where we could, in an area not designed for content - then it got squeezed a little more when our provider changed the format of the bell icon to also say "Follow"/"Following" because there should be nothing in that area (and some other things may well be planned for that area).

One option in the future might be to move those options to the white bar at the bottom (the one where 'Back to Top' / Ambassador link is), which we fully control and can give those links the spacing and formatting they need.

I only look at the MSE Forum on my W10 PC via Firefox browser

The link to the Forum from moneysavingexpert.com home page has disappeared. Fortunately I have the Forum saved in my favourites, but it's going to make finding the Forum difficult for newbies.

Is there a way we can start a 'what would you like the forum to have' thread - so that when the next big upgrade comes (and I'm sure it'll come - even if it may be way off yet) - whether there's a way to collate features and layout requests ready for when that time comes. I know you won't please everyone - but if you say had a thread where feature/layout requests were listed - the number of 'thanks' that posts receives could indicate the level of demand? I understand it might not be an easy thread to manage - but wouldn't it be better than just having something lumped on us like last time without having a chance to gain at least a miniscule chance to have some impact on forming the future boards?

As I've posted on another thread, it looks like bell icon notifications have stopped again ........

Edit: they're there under the bell, but the bell isn't actually showing that notifications exist.

MSE_James

Hmm - the notification bell is working normally for me I think.

@Jenni_D - what browser are you using? Could it be a case of a browser plugin / content filter of some sort causing an issue?
