    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?
    The bell works most (not all) of the time for me on iPad Safari

    Back in September changes were made to the forum that meant that the pics are not displaying in the same way. This resulted in the "Cutting Down Alcohol" and "No-Spend Days" challenges in the Debt-Free forums looking like a confusing mess. Using the "post-text-align-left" tag in HTML stopped working, and now instead of aligning left, pics sit in the middle of the page. I have managed to partly solve this by putting the lists for both challenges into quote boxes. I asked about this at the time and was told that someone was looking into it but there hasn't been any change since then. If there is an alternative to using quote boxes by using html tags I'm happy to use it. Is the forum team able to offer any insight into this?

    Hi

    I'm afraid I don't have any update on this or any better suggestions.
    As we are using a legacy editor, it is very unlikely it will be updated or improved.

    You have to press the red circle with a plus sign in it.

    You've actually started a new tread about this:
    Why can't you start a new thread on the section of the forum you are on? — MoneySavingExpert Forum

    Read the replies on there.

    You can start a new thread on the section of the forum you are on.
    You just need to locate the red circle (mobile) or red oblong box (laptop).

    Though in fairness @gbhxu started that thread 18 minutes after posting the post you are replying to.

    In fairness, I was pointing out that there were replies on their thread that answered the question for both mobile & laptop users.

    hi Stephen, thanks for your reply. As I was saying there was a change to the way the images were displayed made in September. Quite possibly it wasn't the text editor that was altered, but if it was, it shows that it is still being updated. If the change itself is not going to be looked at, is there anyone on the forum team who is familiar with html who has suggestions for a workaround?
