I've just discovered you can remove the little red tag which appears above the Media button.

Click on your username in the top right of the screen and select Preferences. If you look down the list which appears uncheck the one which starts "display unviewed media count". If you now click save at the bottom you may find, as I did, nothing happens and the preferences return to what they were. This I think was because I had not chosen a preference for alerts in chat which are right at the bottom of the page. This is shown as required but no selection had been made in my preferences, so I guess this was reading as an error.

A preference I did change at the same time was to choose not to see signatures - for me this made posts much neater and easier to read!

Thanks DBK (y) I had a couple of 'false starts' but got there in the end :)

I have been wondering recently if I can remove the tags............ can the Showcase tag be removed too?

Altered setting but it doesn't show media alert on my phone anyway.
I'll see when I turn om my tablet.
It has got rid of signatures though, and yes, much clearer without.

Thank you! I used to click on it to remove it but it kept coming back every 10 seconds so I've tried to just ignore it recently.
Would love to get rid of the Showcase flag too.

There seems to be no option to remove the showcase tag, but they don't appear as often as media so once you have marked it as viewed it shouldn't reappear for a while. Hopefully.

I keep clearing the check mark and when I save the change it puts it back.
Check the preference right at the bottom of the page about chat alerts. Until I had clicked on one of the buttons it wouldn't save for me either.

Thanks a million.

I have no idea of the whys or wherefores but that seems to have worked.

You're a star.

Right at the bottom there's two buttons for Chat sound neither is highlighted. I clicked on the Off one and it did the job.

It doesn't work for me. I keep un-ticking the relevant box in my preferences then tick 'save changes'. It tells me the changes have been saved, but next time I look at preferences, the tick is back in place!

p.s. Just read the earlier posts and found the 'chat' preference. - Will see if that works.

Senior moment? I can't find anything on the page referring to chart alerts, neither can the missus so God's baffled as well.
Talk about a senior moment, I read it as chart alerts, whereas it said CHAT alert. Have tick the 'no' box and it works.
