Nick Posted January 18, 2022 Share On serious note, we're aware of the inconvenience that too many adverts has on user experience but it's the best way to make the platform viable. We like to think that we strike a fair balance on the site. Hosting and maintaining a popular forum like Bike Hub comes with some heavy costs and few revenue options. There is Bike Hub Plus which removes the adverts. The other option is to put the forums behind a pay wall but we want Bike Hub to remain open to all, so that's never going to be a serious consideration. Of course, you can use an ad blocker for the site but then Bike Hub receives no support. You can also block other sites with you ad blocker while whitelisting Bike Hub to show adverts.

I used to have down the left hand side the posters name and things like post count and location, right hand side used to not have anything. Is there a way to change this ? @Matt @Nickany ideas ? Does the site differentiate between browsing on mobile vs desktop ? because it always looked like this on mobile but not on desktop, maybe there is a way for me to force the page to revert to desktop mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our thoughts are that the user sidebar was a lot of screen real estate with little value and repetition for every post. Hovering over a user name or avatar should show most of what was there. Obviously you valued it though. What was there that you liked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously you valued it though. What was there that you liked? I liked that at a glance I could see where the poster was from and their post count. It also felt more structured to me and shifted the post content more to the centre of the screen which makes it easier to read. Right now the width of the actual post, even on my low res work screen takes up less the half the screen, it feel squashed to me and to far left. You've got 2 large gutters left and right on the screen that have nothing in them, these could be made smaller in order to enlarge the post section or bring the side bar back.
