Email address is appearing on drop down

    While it's probably just a glitch and not visible to anyone else, my email address being in this position is new but also unnecessary. I've blanked it out but here is the screenshot showing position.
    Just while I am here, the only reason I am looking at this dropdown menu is because the star icon for Bookmarked threads has been missing in the header on desktop for some time now so I use the Bookmarks link in the drop down. I'm not sure if that has been reported before, I don't frequent Help Desk or Feedback any more 😄

    Thanks!

    It's an oddity introduced by Vanilla recently. It's only visible to yourself and no-one else.

    Hey there,

    The email is only visible to yourself. The last update triggered a few slight layout changes but this email view ended up being one of them.

    The star icon being missing is a known issue. Vanilla have been trying to make the fix stick. It appears sometimes but is absent for the most part.

    Oh the joys of it all!

    Thanks guys, I had a feeling it was only visible to me but just wondered what it was there for really! Getting the Bookmark icon back would be great, I use that a lot but as you can see, I have my workaround.

    Apologies for duplicating questions that have already been asked, I haven't been onsite much over the past couple of weeks and may have missed a discussion about changes. Thanks 😊

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
