Don’t remember this being there…

When did that happen? Is it meant to? Is it meant to look that?

Curiosity bubbles briefly in my inert mind…

Be inert. Your country needs nerts.

I see it too. Seems the New/Recently Updated Topics have migrated south for the winter.

Is that on the desktop site?  I’ll have to see if I have it too when I get home.

Okay to explain whats happened from what I can tell now that I’m home.  Apparently the drop down menu is now a blank oval button.  If you scroll down to the bottom like in RN’s picture, there will be what is supposed to be the drop down menu.

Along with the menu migrating south, it appears that the threads are now making themselves as read when you go to them, instead of having to refresh the page.  So that’s good.

Um, sorry. There were a few updates I had to apply yesterday, and I think some things might have been temporarily thrown around. Hopefully they’ve settled down now.

Just a heads-up that the forum devs are working on threaded conversations, which might make off-topic or sidetracked conversations a little easier to navigate, and might mean we don’t have to quote each other’s posts quite so often.

There’s an example of this in action here. Note the indented comments which are replies to previous ones. It’s not been generally released yet, and I assume it’ll leave old threads untouched, but I think it’ll be good overall.

When I click on an unread thread in the drop down menu, I am not taken to the new post at the bottom of thread like I was before. I am taken to the very top of the page of the thread I clicked on. (PC using Chrome)

Maybe you haven’t read that thread in a while. It takes you to the first post you haven’t read not the newist.

I know if the page doesn’t load all the way, it doesn’t go down to the proper post.  That could be your problem.

^Yeah, I know what it looks like when pages don’t load. These pages are loading fully. They just stay at the very top of the page.

Well then I guess you’re going to have to do the hard manual labor of scrolling.

Yeah. At least there is an arrow that will send the page scrolling down. Just an extra bit of pain in the shoulders. (anyone here know to give good massages?)

Works when I use Edge on the same laptop, and it works on my phone using the mobile version of the site.

RN already mentioned this, and mmm magically had it fix itself for him.  The drop down menu is gone, and if you go down to below the stats, there are it’s contents.  It appears the drop down menu has too much to carry and dropped all of it to the bottom of the forum.
