Chat seems broken (still)

@Elcid I changed it! This orange box should be only visible in non-mobile as you are missing another one.
Both of them are not "only on non-mobile"

Cheers, Yes i t would allow me to remove the forum mission statment one, but the dark mode notification would not go. Once again thank you

[CatmanV2]

So how do we get rid of them then?

I don't really ever get to the first post of the thread but I either get to the first unread or it appears, to the middle of the thread it seems and it is not very consistent. It is indeed a bit weird.

[CatmanV2]

Driving me mad, personally......

This one took me right to the first thread. Middle of the thread happens quite a lot as well....

@CatmanV2
The mission statement one i clicked and when i returned it had gone. I could not do the same with darkmode. @DesT removed the other from mobile view, which i appreciate. They are still at bottom of desck top view , but not as annoying there.

@rafale77 , yes it tends to be the middle of the thread or possible the position the 2nd to last time i viewed the thread. It is annoying and will be hell with threads in there 100's.

[CatmanV2]

I've clicked on the mission statement. The box remains

[DesT]

guys.... the orange box will always be there except on mobile. There's no "click and hidden" feature!

[DesT]

All the "sidebar" widget, 2x orange box + forum stats are hidden on mobile to keep the essential.

Officially, you can't! But I think the "dark mode" I can remove it, it's there to help people with the new theme and the new night mode...

The first unread, I need to double check, as I think it's working fine but I need to understand "HOW" it's working!

[rafale77]

@DesT

The first unread works sometimes... like the others are reporting, it often also takes me to the middle of the thread, very rarely to the top. Not sure what is going on with it.

[DesT]

I think that, the "first unread", is related to a "timeout" on how long you are reading. I would need to ask more detail about that to the "nodeBB" team!

[CatmanV2]

Well it makes no sense to me, and behaves differently from every other forum I use or have used. Would love to hear what they say

@DesT this side bar in topic view is a mess.

[therealdb]

I agree with @Elcid. I will simply remote it, if possible. I'm a fan of minimalism and on a community forum that's even more important. Thanks for the hard work @DesT !

[Elcid]

Yes thanks for your efforts @DesT

[CatmanV2]

Absolutely!

@Elcid I did some test and looks like your issue is coming from a conflict with the old theme on the forum! Can you try the same thing using "Incognito mode" ?

From the screenshot, looks like with the width of your browser, you should be in "mobile view" and the sidebar shoud completely be hidden
