It does. You're the one who has been on the booze. Go to a page on the "What's New?" feature where an Entertainment Forum or Newbie thread is.
Erm... well, yes. I was clearly just confused by Pexbo's post, that's it... :o

Or maybe I should have just scrolled down a little bit.

And he did fix it, but it shows the icons like it does on the Watched Threads section. Small icon with big text underneath.
I think it's still missing the material icon styles on desktop though, in whats new it's a plain → character whereas in the entertainment forum the → character is replaced by a material icon font which is similar but green.

I understand now. The css hasn't been applied to them. On both the EF and WN/WT, the → is font awesome, just the colour is different.

EF - Red and Lime green
WN/WT - Black and grey

@Pexbo I've removed the thread icons from the What's New section. As those icons only apply to the Entertainment and Newbie Forum threads, it looks unbalanced when only some threads have an icon. So removing all icons in that section is the best solution.

Could maybe have the prefix title show in brackets beside the forum name on What's New/Watched Threads/General Home tab for cleanliness like this if possible

I just got an alert where it said someone mentioned me only they didn't - they mentioned someone with a similar user name. Never had that happen before.

That's done now. Only applies to the homepage and What's New thread lists. All other thread lists should show the icon.

Has it happened since?

Anyone else having this issue?

I've tried deleting cookies, logging out/in and using the phone but still getting the same message.
What’s the thread title and content you’re trying to create?

Managed to create it now. The issue was that I couldn't have this sign "|" in the title. Which is weird because I've created hundreds of threads with that sign before.

I tried editing it into your thread and it wouldn't let me. Like you, I've either created or edited loads of threads with it - the Horizon: Zero Dawn thread being the latest case.

I don't seem to have the up and down arrow for scrolling straight to the top/bottom of the page anymore. Android phone here
I’ve had to turn that off for now, it was causing some issues. I’ll see about bringing it back soon.

There is a “back to top” arrow at the bottom of the page which will do the same job, kinda.

Is that a mess? It looks like Niall might have tried to fix the positioning of the thread metas which were previously cramped together?

Some threads using Crome on Android don't even load at all for me, have to switch browser and it works.
