Hi guys,

Since upgrading to XB 1.5.7 last night we have a number count (alerts + conversations) next to the usermenu which for us is in the top mod bar:

What's the best way to make that disappear? Our users feel it's redundant since convo and alert unread counts are already shown separately.

Thanks!
 
Here's a quick fix, not sure if the best way but it works. Add the RED text into your navigation_visitor_tab template:

<!-- account -->
<li class="navTab account Popup PopupControl PopupClosed {xen:if $tabs.account.selected, 'selected'}">

<xen:set var="$visitorHiddenUnread" value="{xen:calc '{$visitor.alerts_unread} + {$visitor.conversations_unread}'}" />
<a href="{xen:link account}" class="navLink accountPopup NoPopupGadget" rel="Menu"><strong class="accountUsername"><xen:if is="@xb_userBar_avatar"><img src="{xen:helper avatar, $visitor, s}" class="miniMe" alt="{$visitor_username}" /></xen:if><xen:if is="@xb_fa_visitor_tabs"><i class="fa fa-user fa-fw"></i></xen:if> <span class="xbVisitorText"><xen:if is="!@xb_account_text">{$visitor.username}<xen:else />@xb_account_text</xen:if></span></strong>
<xen:if is="!{$xbExtraVisitorTabs}">
<xen:comment>
<strong class="itemCount ResponsiveOnly {xen:if $visitorHiddenUnread, '', 'Zero'}"
id="VisitorExtraMenu_Counter">
<span class="Total">{xen:number $visitorHiddenUnread}</span>
<span class="arrow"></span>
</strong>
</xen:comment>
</xen:if>
</a>
 
I think we'll use CSS to adjust this actually:

Code:
#moderatorBar #VisitorExtraMenu_Counter {
  display: none;
}

Some add-ons like the live update use this counter I believe to show the unread in the browser title so it still needs to be there. We made a change on 1.5.7 which had good intention and is working a lot better... but it looks like I overlooked this bug :D.

Great, thanks Russ! :)
 
Why not just remove it from the template so it will never show up anymore?

All of our options now use the default template (navigation_visitor_tabs), we just call them depending on how the function works, it's a little strange. I'll find a proper solution though :)
