Is there any way to get rid of the pop up "related" when scrolling down?

Post by iamauser »


when scrolling down in a post or blog in this new forum/support portal, that stupid "related" pop up keeps popping up covering the text of the forum post or blog that I was trying to read. I really couldn't give a fart about related articles when I can't read the one I intended to. I scoured the user options, but I can't find anything to turn off this over-intrusive "feature." 

I also really wish the font could be made smaller too, because I need to back up from my monitor about 10 feet with the 4 million pt fonts used now.

Possibly Zimbra could change the More Content widget to a List format (which puts it at the bottom). This also happens to be the format it uses when switching to a mobile view.

Additionally, considering there may be value to some people, I think it should stay. It would be nice though if this could be a variable defined on the Profile, which could control whether someone wanted to see any related content showing up.

Hi [mention:a2d0b3b924b241c3ac0b6bee8d5eb27c:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]



You could just hit the cross on the top right of the slider to get rid of it when it slides on top.



Regarding font sizes; What font sizes in particular are you having issues with?

No, we want a way for it to never slide out again. It is horribly annoying.



And for font sizes -- seriously guy... look around...

We shouldn't have to keep hitting a button to get rid of it, it should be a user option or learn to stop displaying the box after being dismissed 'n' number of times. Having to keep dismissing content a user finds intrusive is not good product design and we are not lab rats performing repetitive tasks for some imaginary reward.



Is it really that difficult a concept that these pop-ups are intrusive in a technical discussion forum? Mostly they serve no useful function for the task we're performing. If I want or need 'relevant content' I'll search for it myself.

Looks like we turned it off. At least I'm not seeing it right now.

Rob, yes that slide-out is gone from the temporary forums, but still is there on all the other forum pages. It's not less annoying if I'm looking at your other forums...

Yeah, I noticed that as well. I want to fix that too.
