AFN 3.0 (March 2023 - Bugs, Oopsies, "Why did you do this?", and other Reporting)

Would it be possible to have the option that only members can view my content threads
no guests if I choose so.

I'd have to look into it; but I don't think that'd be a very useful feature for the forum. A big part of these threads is the ability to have them crawled by search engines; so that others can view them them or find content related to what they are searching. If threads are private, or placed into a private "access only" subforum; it prevents that ability.

I tried the dark themes again. My most-used button is still off-screen, so I'm back to the legacy theme.
most frequently used button = alerts bell

Can you screen shot what you mean by "off-screen"?

Here is the legacy screen, showing the Alerts button, and the Empire Dark screen (alerts button is invisible off the top of the screen). In Legacy I can always see alerts as they come in, without scrolling at all, and can click the bell to see the drop-down list of alerts. In Empire Dark I have to scroll to the top of the screen, then scroll past the top of the screen to see the AFN banner where the alerts button is in order to see if I have alerts. That's too much work.

Another thing in empire mode, the main forum page right side "recent posts, referrals, blogs, etc" doesn't scroll down with the rest of the page. It starts scrolling when you're about halfway down.

I see you're in firefox, you can also grab a color inverter addon and do psuedo legacy dark mode.

I've fixed this; it was set to "float," and now it should scroll normal as you scroll down.

I'm going to fix up the Referrals Contest info that shows up in the sidebar; I didn't realize it pulled the ENTIRE contents of it into that bar. We'll get that sussed quick enough.

I've doubled the icon size for both Badges (the icons that currently show your years on-site,) and for Trophies (which are being re-done, but you can see in my profile bit what they look like.)

I'm agree with Mara It would be nice if the alert bell would stay visible and also how come the profile banners only show up while using legacy style
