Hi,

I disabled “suppress uncategorized badge” and “topic page title includes category” settings but this doesn’t appear to have any effect:

Looks like you’ve hit the special case for uncategorized pinned topics.

Instead of displaying the category badge, the pinned topic’s contents take up an extra column.

Got the same problem: unchecking `Settings / Other / Topic page title includes the category name` seems to have no effect. Can somebody confirm this option works? @swisspol, did you solve this?
