Problems with Forum

Hi Mods,

I seem to be having problems with the Forum for the past day or so.
I can't get into any of the sections at the bottom. For eg the Classfieds, and General Discussion, or Site Feedback

Also, the Book sections seems to have disappeared.

Thanks
Sirius

 

Hi Sirius,

You have to click on the little + button on the right to open them. Not sure about the book section, i'll go and have a look for it

 

You're right, the book forum has gone somewhere

 

Book Section

http://gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/forums/gardening-books.85/

It's at the very top (above stickies) in the General Gardening Discussion

 

Works for me going in this way: http://gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/watched/forums/all

I can't use the front page as it crashes my work laptop.

 

Well found that Man

 

That's the thing. I can access the site feedback area.

If there are problems, perhaps a banner as you log on, saying "there are issues that are being dealt with" might be helpful?

 

Have a look here Sirius

http://www.gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/threads/changes-to-gc-theme-and-reasoning-behind-them.51675/

 

All I have is General Gardening discussion, none of the other links work.

 

Are you clicking on the little + symbol in the corner?

 

Repeat of a picture / message that RR posted in another thread in case helpful:



Red Arrow = Showing where you can find the toggle
Blue Arrow = Shows the "new post/unread" notifier for child forums
Orange arrow shows where to click to view the section in a closer to "old style manner"

 

I wonder if, given that existing users who know that the Sub Forums "exist" didn't find them easily, whether new users will realise that there are sub forums to be found?

 

I agree with this. I have been a member before, lost password, blah blah and signed back on v recently just days before all changed.. When trying to open the Sponsors sub menu I kept clicking on the word Sponsors which seems logical to me since it is clickable but gives you zilch (I originally thought it was because the site was being updated that these sections hadn't been populated yet ....), not realising for quite a while there was the little and I think too obscure + in the right hand corner obscured by the graphic when I found a query about it on another thread. I consider myself pretty net savvy but perhaps I'm just losing it

ps. I keep getting a posting error too.
