S/A website woes

After manually refreshing (why is this manual?) the portfolio summary page...
https://seekingalpha.com/account/portfolio/summary

and clicking on the "View Headlines" tab, the page scrolls down only a few lines - but still in the portfolio holdings. NOT, as it once did, to the headlines.


Fact: The pop-up prompts for S/A Premium occur 1x/hour between the hours of 12 and 6 am pt. Today is the 4th consecutive day I have paid attention to the frequency of the pop-ups and noted each occurrence. Obviously, the frequency is NOT in line with S/A's mods' repeated statement of principle re the pop-ups' frequency.

Portfolio earnings calendar. I appreciate the updated columnar view with the extra data, an excellent update. Thank you. Some investors, however, are inclined to the *visual* interpretation of data so viewing the dates on a calendar sort is helpful. (The difference is akin to the tabular display of historical prices vs a price and volume chart.)

Hi David,

1. We're working on the view headlines bug, and it should be fixed soon.

2. I've relayed your concern regarding premium pop-ups to the relevant team. once again I want to confirm if you're differentiating Pop-ups from banner ads, and I also want to inform you that pop-ups will be more if multiple devices are used for same account, as our system views it as different sessions.

3. Although we've done away with the calendar view of earnings, for now, we acknowledge that it'd been popular with our users and we're re-openening discussions around it.

@ SA Admin Kushal Mehrotra

Just to be clear about the earnings calendar. My request is not an either/or proposition but to discover the possibility of having both views. Perhaps the calendar view is cumbersome to update or maintain? My own efforts at creating something similar were... challenged so I appreciated (and miss) S/A's calendar.

Thank you for your reply,
