I've gone and done a whole bunch of refactoring today, specifically related to query string parameters and page navigation, and so please let me know if you encounter anything out of sorts. Also, sorry about the downtime earlier in the day. All part of coding in production :)

I think this is more of a concern to Dani and I'm not writing this is a bug. Just interesting. Here's what it looks like now: ![image_2023-07-26_075408848.png](https://static.daniweb.com/attachments/1/715c14ba22519640007c06526b9be765.png) If DANIWEB is undergoing a rebrand like Twitter to X, I would used the greater than symbol.

I archived all the messages in my message list (also yours Dani). Now, if I get a new message (from you) I get a popup stating I have a new message, but this message does not appear in my message list. Is this a bug or an undocumented feature?

When I create a new topic and enter the mandatory tags, the tag dialog box sometimes overlays the "Continue to the Last Step" button leaving only the merest sliver of a button to click. Could the tag dialog be aligned left to avoid this?
