You can now “react” to forum posts in ways other than the ❤

Thanks Chris, although I don’t appear to be able to get the alternative emojis to pop up on my mobile (haven’t tried it on my laptop). Sorry if I’m missing something obvious 🙄

Sorry, it’s not very obvious from the UI. Please try touching and holding the heart icon for a second or two

Love it that we have more reactions to use Chris. I think it will bring extra lols.

@Chris_Beach Hi Chris. I can’t seem to identify who’s ‘reacted’ anymore. Not that I’m inquisitive or anything 😉

For me, it works when I click here:

Which device are you using, please? Is it a smartphone or a computer?

This is what I see on my smartphone, by hovering both over the emojis and the number of reactions. I don’t recall them being left justified before. Sorry for any inconvenience. Screenshot taken landscape as not all visible portrait.

And for me in Firefox on my Windows desktop - nothing pops up on hover.

Working fine on Android, Dot. Have you tried what Chris said, clicking on the emojis?

Hover has been gone for a while, Molly. You need to click on the emojis.

Ah, I see it’s not when I click on them, but when I release them!

Yes, thanks James and I really don’t know why I didn’t read Chris’s message properly. All good now and I’m sorry for wasting everyone’s precious time.

No trouble at all. Good to ask, as others may have been wondering too
