topics in the right place

This topic has been moved to Clutch, Primary & Gearbox.

Not just because I'm an occasional/frequent (delete as necessary) offender at getting replies and indeed topics in the wrong board but it has occurred to me that there is no indication of what board we are replying to.
Is this because my browser is set to open the forum tab at "unread posts since last visit" that I'm missing some indicator as to which board I'm replying to or has it more to do with the board the subject is started on.
Is it possible to have the name of the board at the top of the list of posts.

Trying to make life a little easier for moderators - no promises tho *smiley4*

Hello, thanks for the post. There are two board indicators, one top + one bottom, see attached screenshot, should always look like this, for all members. If not, post or email a screenshot and I'll investigate.

Generally, topics are nearly all posted in a relevant board & there are not that many cases of 'moving', and often it's done after a topic is 'split' when it has evolved into a completely different topic\category.

Ah thanks - old eyes + old brain - I've had the eye test, new varifocals imminent (shopping around for the smallest rip off)

No problem, so (too) many things to keep track of in modern life! ...and you made me realize the practical use of the 'jump to' field, showing the current board as default.
