"Reply as linked Topic" - clickable link target is double the length

I’ve been accidentally clicking on “Reply as linked Topic” enough times by now to file a bug about it.

One fix that has worked was to remove display: block from .gutter .reply-new.

This will probably be addressed in the upcoming version v1.5, because of this:

  • Change right gutter to show larger progress bar, and other relevant UI elements
  • Move right gutter in/out links below posts

Feel free to suggest new UX solutions based on this upcoming change. Here’s one idea I like:

Similarly, the topic-in-header link target reaches almost all the way to the search button, past where the notification bubble used to be. Miss the search button when clicking and you get teleported to the top of the topic, losing your place.

Had to revert the fix since it was messing with the category badge

Ah, I think we can just remove display: block.

No longer an issue as gutter was restructured.
