Hello. New ES4 toolbar doesn't display "count" (number) of notification. Now it display only red dot. Does this increase the site loading speed?

At the same time "Notification module" still display numbers of notification (in old style). Will it be redesigned?

Thanks.
Yes, we no longer show the notification count in Easysocial 4, we will fix the notification module in the next version.

By the way, thanks for the report.

Hello. In ES 4.0.3 I can see new notifications style (red dots instead numbers).

But in sourse code count (number 33 for example)
<span data-counter="" class="mod-es-menu-bar__link-bubble">33</span>
I suppose it still make site to calculate count on each page load?
Is it possible to remove?
Thanks.

We just removed the count for the UI to look neater. The indicator still requires the computation of the total number of requests. You can remove it from the DOM if you want but in terms of performance it does not have any impact.

Hello. Does replacing displayed before "numbers" (count) in notifications to dots, make website a little bit faster?
Or it's just redesign?
Thanks.

It does not make any difference because we invoke the same method to determine if there it should display the notification indicator. These methods are already static so they are only triggered once.

Thanks for explanation. If there is no difference for site speed load, I'll try to change it back and display numbers (counts) for notification because users addictive to it.

It is entirely up to you, we switched to a red indicator to improve the user experience.
