Message indicator is not visible...

Hey @system, The red message indicator is no longer on the front page. What happened? Why is this buried behind the three bars? It makes sense to have it displayed on the main page where it's easily seen.

Are you using your phone? Try landscape mode

No, I'm on a PC. Maybe @system can make the user experience configurable in the system options, where a user can select their default device, Tablet, PC, Phone, etc. ...

As a PC user, I don't want to have to remember to look to see if I got a response. That's like hiding your turn-signal notification lights in the glove-box of your vehicle...

It's still at the top of my front page, and is red right now. Chrome on OS X.

Firefox 115.15

Have you logged out recently, and logged back in? You may be seeing a cached version of the page.

Update:

On Firefox & Basilisk the message notification is hidden under a menu on the left side that you access by hitting button with the three bars.

On Palemoon, the menu & notification are on the main page (right side) like they've always been, before AND after I login.

I didn't change anything. Did you change your resolution? Anything less than 850 pixels it will hide itself. I'll look into hiding it below 720 pixels so it's visible on more displays.

Hey System, Sorry I was out of pocket for awhile today, so I'm just now getting to reply. First, Thank You for replying back, I appreciate it.

My resolution is 1920x1080, it's the default that I've used for multiple years. It hasn't changed.

I don't know if you saw my earlier post, but, out of three browsers, two showed the settings buried behind a 3 bar icon, another looked as it has since you reactivated my account (For which I am still grateful for.)

I don't know what happened, I haven't made any changes to my system, no driver updates, I did add OpenOffice, but that shouldn't have affected anything.

Anyway, I'll run through my settings and see if anything rights the ship. I'm guessing that this is a me problem because I haven't seen evidence that anyone else is having this issue.

Thanks n' Peace! iSnark

Hey system, just an update...

It's a me problem! I have dual monitors, when the window is localized to one monitor, it hides the message notification and associated stats on the left of the screen, when I spanned the window to both monitors, everything is as it used to be with the notification showing on the right of the screen on the right side. I don't know what changed, I've used these monitors for years with no issues. I'll have to run that down. So, no action required from you... Sorry about the false alarm.

It's been like that for years, if you refresh page after logging in it fixes itself.

I've tried that, no dice... not sure what's going on, but it's very weird.

@System, I cleared the cache in my browser this morning and everything is back to normal. I mention this to you in case someone else experiences this. I didn't think about clearing the cache, but in hindsight, It's an obvious first step, and I should have tried that first.
