Hi Forum owners.
Just thought I would make a suggestion. As someone who can only really access the Sane forums at work it would be great if there was a way to hide the MH references on the site (like how some site's had a dark mode).
Just things like making the Sane logo smaller and hiding the "For urgent assistance" sidebar menu, as well as making headings smaller.
Just a suggestion, many thanks!

Hi @Jlol
I just wanted to reach out to say that I think that this is a really great idea - thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us 💜
Listening to your suggestion reminded me about another feature that I’ve seen on some other websites and as such, I’ve just shared a little bit about this in a separate post below 😊
Take care,
ShiningStar 💜

Hi everyone 💜
As I listened to Jlol’s suggestions, it reminded me about the ‘quick exit’ feature that I’ve seen on a few different websites 💜
Although this icon predominately appears on websites where there are risks to people’s safety when they access certain sites (for example domestic and family violence websites) there are members of our community who are impacted by these issues and / or who may be living in situations where they feel unsafe for a variety of different reasons 💜
As such, I just wondered if it would be possible to include a ‘quick exit’ icon on SANE’s tool bar, or in another prominent place on the website?
That way members of our community who need to exit the forums quickly (due to concerns for their safety and / or privacy) can just click on the icon which will automatically direct them to another website and / or page 💜
Thank you so much for reading and I forward to hearing if this is something that may be possible 😊
Take care,
ShiningStar 💜
