"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]

    • Can confirm, I've built stuff for others and no complaints using their products.
    • Yes I agree, it's annoying. You can now miss tabs unless you point low enough.

    • Given only Volume license customers and specific resellers can obtain the LTSC versions legitimately it seems likely that this has been tinkered with quite a lot!
    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.
