When I first open FlyerTalk, the blue area at the top of the screen (I'd call it a masthead but don't know the technical word) is now blank.
It formerly included several links including MyFlyerTalk. For a short period of time, sometimes I saw the links and sometime I didn't. This now looks like a permanent change.
I have to open the list at the left of the page to access and click on the following:
News
Forum
MyFlyerTalk
Hotel Reviews
Help

Like the loss of the MyFlyerTalk link at the bottom of posts, it's not a big deal but it's mildly annoying to see the site become less rather than more convenient for members.
Is this a bug or a feature?

I understand that you're saying you want the entire Twitter post to appear, but you also want hyperlinked text to disappear?

When I hit Submit Reply, the system itself added the letter i within the bracket.
So something is not working correctly at the intersection between quoted text and italics.

Well, there are two separate issues. One is the embedding of the full Twitter post with its big box, photo, and date/time. The other is that the hyperlinked text is not appearing.

But I didn't do any manual markup code in the first place. I clicked the Quote button on another post, highlighted a word within the quote, and then clicked the slanted I button (italics) just above the text box.
When I hit Submit Reply, the system itself added the letter i within the bracket.

And this is what my post looks like to me. I even turned the adblocker off(is it really necessary to get spammed with 4 amex ads on a single page?) I tried Firefox and it renders correctly.

‘My threads’ still not working
Hello. The title says it all. It takes me to threads I started, not ones to which I have contributed. Is there a plan to fix this?
