Unfortunately, I can’t figure out where the problem is from the browser console either. I had two such messages; one was caused by the Locations plugin, but that disappeared after an update. I’m stuck here.

Do you see any messages in the browser console?
I don’t see any warning in the console. Not even after I registered. It might be an adjustment that only affects administrators.
I’d suggest checking whether the message also appears when you use [Safe Mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true) — first with everything disabled, and if the banner then disappears, disable themes and plugins separately to narrow it down further.

I dismissed the message earlier - it only pops up once every 24 hours or so… It doesn’t show up in [Safe Mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true) anymore, but that’s probably because I closed it beforehand.

It did indeed. You are welcome. 😉

So this one was caused by your plugin too?

But the one I listed above still appears after the Locations plugin update — so, in my opinion, it must be related to something else.

Have you tried the plugin update that was released about an hour ago?

> Mobile personal messages from users with titles can still show the location to t…he left of the username after #185. The avatar's width plus its float margin can exceed the metadata's nominal 50px inset, so copying that inset does not guarantee alignment.

> Wrap the metadata and location in one flow-root container only below 40rem on personal-message pages with a rendered user title. The container clears the avatar horizontally, and both rows share its left edge. Use display: contents for the wrapper in other scenarios. Bump the plugin version to 7.3.16.

> Validation: 96 reduced Chromium layout checks across viewport sizes, avatar sizes, font sizes, public/PM, and title/no-title combinations. These reproduced the previous misalignment, verified identical left coordinates for the location, username, and title in the targeted case, and verified unchanged coordinates in other cases. Prettier, Stylelint, ESLint, Ruby syntax, and git diff checks passed. Full Discourse system tests were not run.

The related Locations fix was some time ago, April 2nd:

If the fix in the Locations plug-in was already back in April, then it’s probably not your issue now.
I’m curious to see what comes up when testing in [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true).

Good morning,
The message is back. In [Safe Mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true), I unchecked all the boxes one by one — this message does not appear in [Safe Mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true)!
As soon as I started [Safe Mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true), the error message disappeared — even without [Safe Mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true). And I didn’t click it away.

Could you add this to your browser console (F12) and hit return:
```plaintext
const LegacyArray = window.moduleBroker.lookup(
"discourse/lib/legacy-array-like-object"
).default;
const originalWarning = LegacyArray.warnArrayDeprecation;
LegacyArray.warnArrayDeprecation = function (instance, property) {
console.trace("Deprecated array access", instance.__type, property);
return originalWarning.call(this, instance, property);
};
```
then, without refreshing, navigate to admin and see if you can cause the notice to appear.
now copy the message you should see in the console here.
