It now seems fixed- the 'incessant snow' thread is now going to the latest post in about 6 secs. Much better than 2 mins on the face of it, something has apparently happened.
Double chevron to get to the very last post is indeed quick, but clicking the thread title for last unread post remains ponderous.
What’s that annoying massive bell icon that does nothing doing on the screen? Any chance of removing it?

its supposed to show notifications but it doesnt appear to work on the main page. if you go into your profile, the bell will then show you how many you have (if any at all) which i guess will be on the list of things to fix, but i cant see it being a priority tbh.
Ah, on my PC I've read and turned off all the notifications now (as they never worked anyway) and the bell has gone.
How does one switch off notifications for a thread they've started?
The bell doesn't work for me (does nothing when I click on it) except when I'm viewing the classifieds, there it shows notifications (about posts I've started) if you can click on it. Quite often though it's behind some sort of pointless translucent banner that blocks clicking on it.
OH MY GOD THE FONT HAS CHANGED THE SKY IS FALLING YOU'RE ALL LITERALLY WORSE THAN HITLER!!
That should save us a couple of pages.

I think it's going to be a lump of coal in your stocking this year
The link to classifieds has disappeared from chrome/android
Where has the menu gone on mobile (Android/Pixel 9)
Thrre bars (Hamburger menu) on the blue bar under the word Singletrack. I can see it in your screenshot.
I can also see that, just like mine, the BLUETTI ad has been cut off left and right. I mean, I don't really care but I might if I was paying for that ad.
Stunning, black against deep dark blue. Does no one try out this stuff before implementation.
Search still broken then? Wanted to find a specific recent thread. Nope, only old threads avail in search.
I even replied to the thread as a "bookmark" to allow me to find it... but that would rely on me being able to find threads I'd posted on. Go to Profile. Posts? Nah, that's threads created by the looks of things. Comments? Comments sound promising. Yeah, only if I want to look at comments from years gone by. No way of sorting by newest 1st. Forums? Holy shit - I can actually see comments / posts that I have created and it even looks to be in order by newest 1st!!
Bugger me the ux is terrible if you actaully want to do more than read a thread on the first page of the forum.
I’ve tried leaving a comment below the article about powerbanks but I was only able to post “W”!
I wanted to ask what the difference is between a sponsored article and an advert? That article looks like an advert to me, is there some financial reason for the different descriptions?
WTAF is a 2 message limit a day for free members? You lots are just trying to drive us away aren't you?
If the general dysfunctionality of the free mobile site hasn't got the message through, I don't see how this extra restriction will tip the balance.
I’m an occasional reader of the forum and find it mind boggling how bad this works, it’s like going back years and it never seems to improve.
It’s even more mental when it’s part of a business.
I have no idea how easy it is to have a working forum but I can’t think of any others I use that don’t work perfectly 99% of the time.
I know Weeksy set up a motorbike one, not as part of any business but it worked flawlessly, fast and easy to use. Just the posters that let that forum down😉 apart from Tricky’s reports and Weeksy’s reports in his lad’s racing😀
Same with Rob at Emtb forum, it’s a pleasure to use, this one is so frustrating to use I often just give up while waiting for a thread to load.
Wouldn’t it be easier to just use some different forum software and ask someone to sort it out?
There's an acronym in business that matches almost every product that's ever succeeded. Simple, Loveable, Complete. Now STW has a bit of investment capital it would be well worth writing that on a whiteboard and then trying to fix this utter mess of a product.
There’s a phrase I regular used in meetings and team building days.
”**** off with the acronyms it’s patronising nonsense.”
Not sure SLC qualifies as an acronym though.
Would that be pronounced SLiC or SiLC?
I was going to resubscribe but it's not currently possible to buy a sub.
2 posts a day... is this true ?
second post.
third or fail.
So 2 posts for scumbag freeloaders is a myth.
Should be able to here.
It seems to work using the gift option but there's nowt on the normal page https://singletrackworld.com/shop/singletrack-subscription/

Cheers. I’ll mention this.

Did you storm out of the phone box after shouting it?
I’m sure there was a thread for this, or was it on this one
but dark mode is back full time for me on iPhone and iPad iOS 26.
Please ask me to clear cache and cookies to solve it 🙂
After 12 months in the wilderness, decided to come back and give STW another try.
May I respectfully suggest that the Subscribe pages may need a bit of work - white text on white background for some data entry fields does make things a little challenging.
Whatever you've done to the 'last read' positioning today, can you un**** it please? It's loading page 1 of multi-page threads before trying to go the end. It's doubly irritating because it was working beautifully.

Is that https://www.emtbforums.com/forums/ or is there a UK one???
Whilst spending ages renewing my subscription yesterday and going round and round and round, I found that clicking on the “Singletrack” header acts like a home button. Brilliant! I wondered how to get to the latest stuff page.
Everyday a school day etc..
I've given up asking for forum overview/navigation buttons to be restored to the bottom of each thread, and so I've carried on going through having to hit the Top of the Page arrow button and it wanging up like a broken window blind, to only THEN use the forum navigation buttons at the top.
At least top of page button WAS fairly rapid. It's now been made super slow to respond which keeps making me think it's not worked and i keep tapping away.
I mean, it's only half a second, but it adds to the general challenge in navigating the site.

Its a shame its gone. There are so many navigation options that I'm sure nobody uses. Does anyone jump to the previous topic have read a thread? You can't even use 'back' reliably as sometimes a link click takes you on a couple of pages
EDIT: I've just used the Previous Topic button and it took me to a post that was updated 2 months ago. Surely we can lose that "functionality" and replace it with a link back to the forum overview?
Wait long enough and whatever random collection of buttons that has to be hit to turn on that functionality while ruining something else is bound to occur.
