Notifications not visible?

Yesterday the notifications were on the left side, today they're on the right side for some reason and you can barely access let alone clear them.
Anyone else with this issue?

Make sure to clear your cache, by pressing CTRL-R, using your mouse and clicking on the reload icon, or closing the browser and relaunch. This will refresh the helper files to correctly position the notification box

Let me know if it doesnt work

You have a seriously strong browser cache

Try CTRL F5 or just F5

My screen looks exactly the same. My profile picture is popped out onto the screen. It looks weird. And I cant access my notification box as its pushed outward to the right.

I've cleared cache, refreshed and rebooted my laptop. Same thing.

It does NOT happen in Firefox, but is happening on MS Edge. Which I prefer to use.

Not sure if this belongs here but the new positioning of the avatar, appreciate points, notifications etc isn't correct if you are viewing the F15/16 forum. In the other forums it's fine and placed to the right of the page. But in the F15/16 the avatar is really big and in the center of the screen. No big deal but figured I'd pass it on.

Clearing the cache worked in Firefox.

Manage history, find site, right click, forget about this site. Log in.

Are you using MS Edge as Browser ? That's where I'm seeing the huge Avatar popping out, forcing the notifications off screen.

In Firefox, its not doing that.

I'm in Chrome. It's not my browser. If I'm in any other forum, it shows fine. It must be a glitch for some reason with the F15/16 forum. I literally flipped through all the car forums and it shows correctly, in addition to Off Topic and general forums. For some reason, it only views weird in the F15/F16. I'm mainly in the G05/G06 so it doesn't bother me but is probably annoying for those that have F15/F16 as their main view.

Its the same in G30. When i'm on the home screen, my avatar is exploded out and I cant access notifications because they're smashed off screen. When I choose a category, the exploded avatar goes away. Its something coded that needs to be tweaked.

The F15 thing is weird, but its still just the cache, actually all the forums use the same base files, but your browser for whatever reason is hanging onto the old files for the F15 section. Try refreshing the cache with CTRL (or apple key) F5 or CTRL/Apple key R

Sometimes I find that pressing CTRL and physically clicking the refresh icon in the browser toolbar also does the trick

Look like they fix it, didn't do anything to the computer.

The notification now open to the left of the icon and the avatar is normal size.

I cleared my cookies from desktop and logged in again, the profile avatar is still huge and the notifications are not fixed. Strangely enough, I did NOT have to clear any cookies on my laptop and it looks fine! Both are on Chrome.
