Hi Excel Forum.

Hi Excel Forum. I don't want to use your notification plug-in. Ever. Please turn that stupid banner off, or at least make it dismissable. PS I also hate LinkedIn notifications and emails.

[S O]

Also, using this 'functionailty' doesn't make EF a 'top site' - If LinkedIn and Facebook were that good, we wouldn't be here would we!

[romperstomper]

It's still there today. Please turn that stupid banner off, or at least make it dismissable. Do you have any idea how irritating it is to have that shoved in your face every time you switch to a new page??

Hi Rorya,

We have taken this issue on priority with our management and as of now we have turned off the notification for 30 days in case someone click on "Close". We have already raised the concern for our user community that instead of "Close", there should be "Block" option so if someone not interested, can click on "Block" and should not get notification pop up again until clear cache/cookies. However, the final decision on this will be taken on Monday.

Thank you for your patience and understanding,

You realise I'm talking about the big yellow banner at the top of every page, right? Because that's still there.

We have already raised the concern for our user community that instead of "Close", there should be "Block" option so if someone not interested, can click on "Block" and should not get notification pop up again until clear cache/cookies. However, the final decision on this will be taken on Monday.

So you'll take a final decision as to whether or not the users should have a choice about being pestered by your site? Very generous.

Anyone know how to get rid of the distracting yellow message at the top of the page? I've read it and I don't want the plugin - how do I dismiss it?

[WasWodge]

Might be a method coming...

but at present I don't think you can remove the banner.

[AliGW]

Thanks - I hadn't seen that thread.

[xladept]

It wasn't broke-so they fixed it, and now I can't get to some threads where I had previously contributed.

I don't want the plug-in either just as I don't do Facebook or Lnkedin

[FDibbins]

xladept, it does not have anything to do with either of those 2 site - or others. It is an add-in (that most have no interest in, including myself) for this site

[xladept]

Hi Ford,

They said it's a plug-in and I keep getting a plug-in script warning where I had none before - it seems more than coincidental

[FDibbins]

Orrin, Im not saying that is not the case, just that they said it is the same process being used by "top sites like FB and LI"

I complained when it 1st showed up, got nowhere as usual

[AliGW]

Give us the option to get rid of it. I'm not interested in the plugin and never shall be.

[xladept]

It's a screwed-up plug-in anyway and preventing me from finishing off a couple of threads

[FDibbins]

I am going to merge this thread with the other regarding this topic

Could we please have a Banner to say Email Notifications are not working?
हम तो कृपया ईमेल सूचनाएं काम नहीं कर रहे हैं कहने के लिए एक बैनर मिल सकता है?

ہم ای میل نوٹیفیکیشن کام نہیں کر رہے کہنے کو ایک بینر ہے براہ مہربانی سکتا ہے؟

It must be the first result of :

We are running a small survey on Excel Forum (Refer to following Google form link) and we request you to kindly take out a few minutes from your precious time to answer enclosed questions for us to improve our services and user experience.

Can you please add this thread to all other 'stickies' ?

[romperstomper]

I assume the final decision was simply "we don't care what the users want, we'll just force crap onto them anyway".

[WasWodge]

I know I am going to be shot down in flames here but it doesn't state which Monday

However, the final decision on this will be taken on Monday.

Thank you for your patience and understanding,

[romperstomper]

Still there. Still annoying. Particularly as you've made them dismissable before so we know you can do it if you want to.

[S O]

This is literally a 2 second job, in the time it has taken for admin to reply to this thread they could have fixed it... terrible.

[romperstomper]

Clearly you haven't been following the tech team's past exploits...

[snb]

I sent them/him/her a PM. To no avail.

[xladept]

Eureka!

[AliGW]

Thank goodness it's gone - what an eyesore it was!!!
