Hi, There's a few issues with the commenting system with blogs. 1. Selecting "Best" makes comments disappear When the ordering is set to "Best", the most recent comments won't appear, because they have not been liked, since they are newly created. Since 'Best' is the default selection, this means people can't see the comments. I think most people will assume "Best" is supposed to order all comments, not hide some from view. Please can "Best" behavior be changed, or maybe even deleted or not made the default? 2. Selecting to order by "Newest" doesn't show the newest comments first I get that where a comment is nested, selecting "Newest" might show the root comment first, but sometimes it shows irrelevant comments that are not part of the root. I believe this is a bug. Example from (+) Simple DCR (Direct Conversion Receiver) – Part 2: Common Emitter Amplifier - element14 Community : Here I've selected "Newest", and it shows a comment and then the next comment is nested as you can see: However as I scroll down, notice that this next comment is not indented, i.e. it's got nothing to do with the previous comment: I continue scrolling: Scroll some more: Finally, that red highlighted box shows the actual newest comment. But as you saw in the first and second screenshot, this actual newest comment was part of the second set of nesting. To me this seems a bug, but even if that is fixed, it will still be unintuitive, and will still be very hard to find, unless that "Best" default selection is not the default for users. 3. 50% of the window is wasted The root of this problem is that the blogs have a lot of wasted screen space on the left side. Is it possible to make the area with "Blog Post Actions", "Engagement", etc., be narrower? Thanks!Report Bughttps://community.element14.com/members-area/support/f/forum/56832/new-user/234967Mon, 13 Apr 2026 15:15:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:6961387d-8276-4567-9a3a-dae41ccc7ef6cstantonHello, From the details you have provided there are presently no accounts associated with the e-mail address that I can see.

We will be doing a full site release of a new codebase. The site will be fully unavailable while we do the release. You will be presented with a maintenance page or the Oops page for all pages during the duration of the release. We expect the site to be available from around 11AM onwards. We hope it will be earlier than 11am. We'll be taking the site down at around 8am to apply the new version of our software. It will be down for about 2 hours and then we'll check everything and run our automated tests for an hour before we take the site maintenance banner down. You can read more about what is in this release on the development blog that Matt wrote up here: Site Maintenance 31st March :: Release 2026-2 element14 DevOps teamhttps://community.element14.com/members-area/support/b/blog/posts/site-maintenance-31st-march-release-2026-2Tue, 24 Mar 2026 12:37:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:e6c24a4c-4df9-4040-9884-d2ff66a84552MattOn the 31st March 2026 we're deploying our second site update of the year. Here are some of the features you may be interested in; RoadTest & Design Challenge Changes We've made it easier for you to subscribe to notifications on a RoadTest/Design Challenge with this bell icon at the top right of the status panel; Wording for Design Challenges has been improved to make it more clear what each label means; Headings have also been tweaked; The user journey for members logging in or registering to enrol in a RoadTest/Design Challenge/Webinar will now land them back on the original page and popup the enrolment form, making it more obvious to the user what they need to do next. The contact details form now makes it clear which fields are required for entry. On member profile pages, the 'RoadTester Since' date is now the date of their first review, not their first application. Quizzes We now have the ability to create quizzes that have; Weighted scoring on answers Answers with multiple choices (i.e. checkboxes rather than just radio buttons) Keep an eye out for new quizzes that use these new options! Achievement Flair Placeholders In our last site update we added a new feature to member profile pages which shows your membership length badge, as well as able to add up to 3 other achievements to show off. We've improved this to show placeholders if you've not set any. The positive feedback we've had for this feature has been fantastic; we're so glad you like it Japanese eCommerce Store Integration We now have full support for our Farnell store in Japan, so if you have that country set in your profile you'll see localised pricing and availability, and the Buy button will take you to jp.farnell.com . Google Discover - News Sitemap Behind the scenes we've built the ability for our content team to set areas of the site to appear in a News sitemap. This should mean it'll be eligible to appear in Google Discover, which you'll likely have seen in various Google apps. We're hoping this will give content on element14 Community exposure to a wider audience of electrical engineers who haven't heard of us. Structured Citations for Projects When writing Projects, you can now add structured citations, making it easier to reference sources and improve the clarity and credibility of your content. Citations are added directly within the body using a numbered format and linked to a dedicated References section, allowing readers to quickly navigate between content and its sources. How to Use it When creating or editing a Project, add citations in the body by placing a number in square brackets, e.g. [1], next to the relevant text in Body of the Project. Only numeric formats without spaces are supported. Then, in the References section, enter the corresponding citation details using the same numbered format, e.g. After publishing, users can click on a citation in the body, which will automatically scroll to the matching reference in the References section.https://community.element14.com/members-area/support/f/forum/56772/retired-no-longer-have-access-to-the-email-address/234533Fri, 20 Mar 2026 14:17:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:0134d2f2-b841-41f7-8e89-94b9b469a440cstantonHello, You are welcome to please create a new account, we will also not publicly confirm personally identifiable account details.
