Why Two-Step Message Retrieval?

December 21, 2020, 07:29 AM

In addition to the lack of world peace, I've been wondering why the site features a two-step message retrieval process. Since (I think) everything is in the Message Center, wouldn't it make sense if it only took one click to get there rather than two?

Because you may have a PM or a notification, or both, and the 2-step shows you which upon first click so you can click on either. This was a natural update in the last vBulletin update.

I've never gotten a PM, so that takes care of that! Understand the logic; can handle the pain. Thanks.

Agreed! If we can just just do one click that takes us to the "message center" that would be awesome.

AND if we could get the rib on the header to be a secret link to recent threads that would be extra awesome.
