B.A. | 1,139 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 There should only be two of them. I removed the latest posts one as that's been there awhile. The secret santa one needs to stay a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I figured out the problem...though it changes my browsing habits for the internet in general. I don’t have cookies enabled on my browser. Enabling it disables the banners once and for all when I click them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any way to store that flag in the DB with the user profile data or is it just part of the forum software that you don’t have access to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the way it's built, and tbh I can see why - having a bunch of bool flags on every user account, adding up every single time we do an announcement? That'll add up a lot over time and would make the database unnecessarily huge. Especially considering that those announcements are all temporary.

I’m glad you mentioned the temporary nature of them as I would have proposed a lastestBanner flag so it would be a single bool field per user but since it’s baked in to the software it’s a moot point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Tank | 955 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Oh man, thanks to that banner I have been reminded today is the last day for Secret Santa submissions. Phew, close one! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey man, I know it has been a while, and thankfully there's currently only one banner, but are you for or against a Sage plushie?

A flag for 1024 individual banners is a single 128 byte value. That is a fraction of most people's signatures. But how about a compromise, a single user setting that just disables banners entirely (like you can do with signatures)? It would definitely be a massive help.

It's as frustrating as ever do u have cookies? If u have cookies, they will disappear when u click them and it remembers, through cookies, that they have been clicked........

Sumez | 2,933 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Yeah until it decides to forget. Would be nicer if you could just turn them off entirely and never have to click them away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumez | 2,933 Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) Here's a small CSS snippet (usable with plugins like StyleBot etc) to fix the issue if anyone else is interested, permanently hides all banners so you don't have to click them away all the time: .cAnnouncementPageTop { display: none !important; } Should have added this ages ago Now I just gotta figure out how to make that work on my phone as well.
