"Like" button moved to bottom.... don't "Like" it!


Recommended Posts

I never thought this was a 6 page worth thread.

And i never thought it would reach 6 pages without a response on why they made this stupid, and rather unneeded change. But i guess that's somehow too difficult for them to manage to do.

WTF is the Like button doing where it is right now on the blog? Looks even stupider...

I can live with the new placement of the like button in the threads but that's just stupid

As its been about 2 weeks since this change, can we have a poll to ask the community where they prefer it?

I'm sure many have got used to the change but still prefer it on the top right.

Quick temporary ugly stylish script to put it back how it was (I think... I can't quite remember where it was, I just know I don't like it at the bottom):

Works great -- saved me the time of having to do it ;) I changed it to 8px vs 3 - this seems to be more inline with where the posted type is on the left.

Stylish is better for this sort of thing then greasemonkey anyway! Thank YOU!

edit: BTW same script can be used for fixing it on the blog page - just change to blog vs topic in the url-prefix and then edit the position in the script to your tastes. I added some right on the blog or it was too close to the edge, etc.

Again great script, I would put it on userstyles.org so people can find it ;)

url-prefix

Quick temporary ugly stylish script to put it back how it was (I think... I can't quite remember where it was, I just know I don't like it at the bottom):

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document url-prefix("https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic") {
.post_body { position: relative; }
.ipsLikeBar {
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
right: 0;
}
.ipsLikeBar .ipsList_inline li:first-child {
float: right;
}
}[/CODE]

not working on chrome stylish :-(

Does seem an odd placement for it but you never know until you try and now it has been tried and the community has voiced its opinion, can we have it moved back please? :p

I'd personally prefer it next to the report/quote buttons as it is an 'action' button and does deserve to be over there with the rest of the action buttons.

not working on chrome stylish :-(

For chrome stylish you need to remove the mozilla specific code and just have:


.post_body { position: relative; }
.ipsLikeBar {
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
right: 0;
}
.ipsLikeBar .ipsList_inline li:first-child {
float: right;
}[/CODE]

"Applies to" -> "URLs starting with:" https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic

    • My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
    • Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount by Taras Buria In late January 2026, Apple introduced its second-generation AirTag trackers, bringing a refresh to the old model that has been on the market for half a decade. Now, you can get these new trackers at an all-time low price, thanks to the first big discount that brought the price down by 17% on Amazon. While the second-generation AirTag looks identical to its predecessor, it packs meaningful upgrades inside. The second-gen ultrawideband chip works 50% farther than the original AirTag, allowing you to detect lost items in a wider range. In addition, the second-generation AirTag features an upgraded Bluetooth chip for extended range and a significantly louder speaker (up to 50%) so that you can hear it better when locating a lost item. Note that the second-gen AirTag only works with iPhones and iPads that run iOS/iPadOS 26 and newer, so you need a compatible device to use the tracker. Like the original AirTag, the AirTag 2 is available in two packs: one and four pieces. Both are now available at a notable discount on Amazon, and you can purchase them using the links below. Apple AirTag 2 tracker - $24 | 17% off on Amazon Apple AirTag 2 tracker (four-pack) - $89 | 10% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.- specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing.

    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
