Wish the New and Popular post buttons were across the top instead of a dropdown.

I did something similar. My bookmark for the site is the "Popular" page. For the old site I used the "Active Topics" page.

Exactly what I set in my browser the first day of playing with the new software.

I like the way the lay out was done for mobile devices & the way every thing is kept in the right hand corner. In general the more i come on to the forum the more i'm liking the new format.

Just a question how do you go about changing a post you have posted or deleting it .Thanks

At the top of your post there is an Edit and Delete option.
As I have many options available as an Admin I'm not certain they are available to you.

If all else fails, or it has been more than 24 hours, contact one of us (MomsSol, Rob the Elder, or me) by PM and ask us to do it.

Any changes worthwhile mentioning ?

EDIT: Just noticed that when you click on the trending icon that new posts is the first choice. Popular is now second on the drop down.

I don't know for certain but may just be normal maintenance/backup type stuff.
No new releases have been posted and they generally let the mod team know of anything new first.

Seems this privacy setting is not functioning yet

Can we get the old functionality back of having the 'new posts' list demarcation with "The threads below have not been updated since your last visit but still contain unread posts. "?

There are threads that I'm not interested in, and have not looked at, yet still keep showing up in the 'new posts' list, even though they are days old. The line above made it very easy to see at a glance what was really new.

This appears to be working. Is there some reason that you think it isn't?

User Location Privacy Settings
Click on your avatar and select Account Settings from the drop-down menu.

Your Account Settings page will open with more options. From the left-side navigation bar, select Privacy.

On your Privacy page, you will see options regarding your location.

Use the drop-down menu to select who can see your location information.

Save your privacy settings.

I have seen the demarcation bar in the new format, but I'm not sure under what conditions. It may be that you have to log out and back in, but I will do some experimentation.

There is a "Mark All Read" button at the top of the "New Posts" page that would take them off of the list, but if you want to stay aware that you haven't read them you don't want that option.

Is this what you are referring to? If so, it is already there.

It only blocks location information on the profile, but people can still see your location by hoovering over the flag that the forum posts next to my name. Is like locking the front door and keeping the windows wide open

The demarcation line appears for me if I log out of the forum, then log back in. If I navigate away from the forum, or close the window, and come back without having to log back in, there is no line.
