Glad this is back!! Thanks for pushing this

A couple of observations

-- The "who quoted me" only appears when you have a new quote

-- When it does appear, there is no distinction of what is a new entry


Any news about Mentions?

I've noticed that the list that pops up for me on the "Quotes" frequently has the wrong threads isted that I was quoted in -- is this a cache issue for me?

The "Who Quoted Me" window is new to me, or I just never noticed it before. Annoyingly, directly above that I get some erroneous code:

Code:
!-- Display Who Quoted me --> !-- Display Who Quoted me --> !-- Display Who Quoted me --> !-- Display Who Quoted me --> !-- Display Who Quoted me -->



Now I need to figure out how to make that window default to staying closed when I load the MyFlyerTalk page. Once there are too many quotes I can see this easily wreaking havoc when viewing the full site on my phone. I'm hosting a DO this weekend and am expecting quite a few posts

Mentions are active. And I'm not sure what you mean. Who Quoted Me is there all the time.

Possibly. Always clear your cache/cookies when trying out a new feature. Or try the site in private browsing mode

This is Chrome on Android but I guess it's fairly similar on the iPhone

Touch the symbol to the left of the site name



In the menu that pops up choose Cookies and Site data



And then click the trash can to delete site data. Note this will sign you out of the site and you need to log back in again.



Hope that's useful

Once you view a recent quote, Quoted as an option disappears from the "bell/notification" drop down. If I go to my User Control Panel, I can see recent Quote notifications

It now says it nine times instead of five. Earlier it was six.

Now up to 10 times. This is really becoming a problem

It shows like this both on my computer and my phone in the full site mode.

Appreciate you posting all that. On my phone I dont have that button though or that entire row. I have nothing next to the website name. Below it I have it exactly as in your pic w the yellow symbol next to flyer talk and 3 horizontal lines to the left and the search icon to the right. But above it all I see is the web site name nothing else.

And now I have a new problem. I hit desk top version whole in this thread and now any time I open only this thread I am seeing it all small and weird and there seems to be no way to revert back.

You can access them from the dropdown or directly in MyFlyerTalk (main page, below your forum subscriptions)
I've already asked for the notification menu to be reorganized so PMs are the top row again.
I'm late to the party, but yay! and thank you! to all who made it happen.

My only slight niggling request would be, can the quote panel be put at the top of the page, above the list of subscribed threads?
