Hi,

 

Thanks for the reply, I think we have some work to do here. Q&A is a completely different platform and works very differently to the Microsoft Tech Community. I will capture your feedback and feed it into future sprints.

The edit label in your PS is actually a known bug that is caused when a community owner has not set a hero image on their community hub. Out of interest where did you see it?

Hi Allen​​, (& again I'm sorry for my delay in answering you)

 

ok, I understand they are different platforms, and I was also not saying that Q&A one is better than this one (or that this one is worse than the other). 😇

I see that 'Edit' label just below the thin line shown under the cog you told me about, and it's also moved towards right edge of my browser tab.

Please see web capture excerpt I've now succeeded to enclose just below (my trembling evidencing is in red). 😀😇

Regards

Rob

      Hi Allen​,

      yes, I do see it on this same page, but (just like right now) I had to complete again my 'Sign In' action before I could give you this reply.

      Otherwise, so just before I made my very quick 'Sign In', I saw exactly same screen excerpt you added, and I know well that it happen this way because because after quite some inactivity delay my user account (just like yours) just times out and so my user session expires gracefully.

      Saying so, I mean that my Edge browser tab indeed remains on same page (also because self-suspended and '...sleeping to save resources' since I highly likely already minimized same Edge window) but ITMT on this platform side my user account has already been signed out in background.

      P.S. I'm unsure if the inactivity timeout delay period for this graceful self-sign out is already well known for this platform, but I'd expect it to be around 10~15 minutes, just like for some other site I use (even my local bank or credit card company act similarly, but they do not self-sign my user accounts as gracefully, and so as soon as I try to do any minor action on same page I was in, I'm just brought back to their initial Login screens, while I'm also aware that other financial institution in the U.S. are indeed much more polite towards users, and so they typically try to display a little foreground window showing a small countdown (about 5 minutes), so that if a user quickly recover from a little distraction for something, then it may still directly confirm on same little countdown window own will to continue his/her user session.

      Regards

      Rob
