Remove "Love YNAB? Pay it forward" and other banners at bottom of Accounts sidebar

[alexmidd]

It seems that the YNAB designers, in their wisdom, have added a banner that says "Love YNAB? Pay it forward" at the bottom of the Accounts sidebar. It obscures some of my accounts in the list and cannot be removed (I've asked YNAB and they confirmed this). I've given feedback to the designers but no doubt they will ignore this. So if there is a way to remover this banner then that would be great.

Also, the help button is appearing at the bottom right, despite me having it set in the toolkit to remove it. I see there was an issue reported for this but it seems to have been closed and it's not clear (to me at least) as to whether this is likely to be fixed.

YNAB is great, but some of their design choices really need looking at as they spoil the experience in many cases (don't get me onto the new accounts page header).

If this could be considered I would be most grateful.

Thanks

Alex

This can be hidden with the "Hide Referral Banner" option that already exists in Toolkit.
As for the help icon, that will be fixed in the next release. Apologies for the delay, we haven't gotten around to distributing a new version yet.

[alexmidd]

Ah, OK, I didn't realise there was an option for that. Thanks for the info.

Just toggled it on and off again. I
It's not working.

I'm using Brave browser on MacOS Monterey v12.6 if that makes any difference.

Hmmm, it's working for me even on v3.4.0. Did you refresh after toggling the feature?

[alexmidd]

Refresh? Do you mean reload the page? If so, it's just the same. It's also not working on Chrome and Safari as I have tried them too. Not sure why this is happening if it's working for other folks.

Yeah, reload YNAB after toggling the feature on in Toolkit settings. Weird that it's not working for you, hmmm

[alexmidd]

Yep. On three browsers as well.

[alexmidd]

The help button I can cope with but the banner is really annoying.

[alexmidd]

So, is there anything that can be done about this or am I stuck with it?

[williammck]

Now being tracked in #3022/#3023. YNAB is running an experiment referral-banner-experiment which is why I was unable to replicate.

[alexmidd]

Ah, OK that explains it. Thanks William.
