Sorry to post here but tried the technical help forum without success.
On the mobile version of the site I have recently started having a permanent Blue Privacy settings tab at the left hand side of my screen. It’s very annoying and I can’t find any way to get rid of it.
Anyone know any way to get rid of this?

I've got that too. I think I've tried clicking every combination of options but the bugger has me beat.

I've seen it a few months ago then it eventually disappeared before reappearing recently.
I was wondering if it had something to do with a recent system update on my phone.

I changed my browser to Brave, works for me plus gets rid of pesky adverts on other sites including YouTube 👍💚

It does get in the road… but does it get in the road any worse than it did when it was on the right of the screen?
I used to have problems on occasion when words were finishing near the end of the row on the right, and you couldn’t shift the cursor to a position where you could delete letters etc?
It’s a bit of a nuisance it being there on the left and not being able to see the first few letters you type but I’d argue it’s better there than on the right.

?It does because it interferes when starting a post from the left, Ive never started a post from the right 🫣

Likewise. Never noticed it until a few days ago and now it’s doing my head in.

For me it's a mild annoyance not being able to see the first few letters as I start typing from the left... whereas on the right it was fine about 99% of the time and absolutely infuriatingly impossible 1% of the time.

Correct. And it's always in the bit where I want to press a button.
A design flaw.

Well, yes but then if you open the PM board thread it reappears, then if you open the MB thread it reappears - etc etc etc.
Its in the wrong place, and even if its required at all should only need clicked once or if the T&Cs change.

Yup
This is us telling you to appreciate what you have- it could be worse :greengrin
Seriously we are trying to fix the issue- this obviously isn't it. Please bear with us.
A red vertical security stripe has suddenly appeared down the main page on the site .
Anyone know what it’s about & how to get rid ?
Should be fixed now and back on the right?

I notice it now disappears from the right when either posting or editing posts - which is perfect.
Good work folks.
It's also now in green and white which makes it much more tolerable too 👌
