Very minor UX bug: Missing / in "4 / week"

In the mobile UI, where it says “4 week”, this should be “4 / week”. Confirmed the meta forums have the same problem. Very minor issue but one of our users brought it up, and it seemed worth mentioning.

Desktop UI does not have this issue.

@codinghorror are you ok with adding the / ?

Sure that seems fine

Could we not just use ‘a’ ? That way I wouldn’t have to occasionally explain it. Seems like there’s an abundance of space in that row.

The fix is in

Then we’d have to translate it.

This convention isn’t new to Discourse of course (km/h, 24/7, etc) and even without the slash the context feels clear to me… so I’m surprised that it comes up.

That might need localization, which is why I suggested /. Also the desktop version uses / so it’s consistent.

Thanks for the fix!
