Looks like there may be adjustments to be made to the old tagline.

Like others, I don’t have a problem with the new layout online, unfortunately I am only home about 1/day per week on average so most of my interaction is via phone and I have almost all but given up trying to interact with my Samsung S22.  Too small font, images run together, blurry images/icons, overwhelming “fluff” the phone/screen can’t handle and difficult to navigate through the “clutter”.  Frustrating to say the least.  If there were a dumbed-downed version for phone access that would be extremely helpful (at least for me)

Best Regards,

PS, this post was from my laptop between planes, from my phone you would have simply gotten a “thumbs down” image.

Is there any way to click on a topic and get to the very end of it, especially if it is a lengthy one, so you don’t have to click a bunch to get there, and/or click on a thread and have it go to where you last reviewed it and any later posts are down from where it opened up, just like with the old forum?

I agree with Chris.  The pages are not easy to read.  Hard to differentiate one thing from another.  Everything just seems to run together.  I miss having the up arrow in more locations instead of just the bottom of the posts when going back and forth to an earlier post.  I don’t like the Submit Reply right above the Add Reply.  Keep hitting the wrong one.

Recently discussing the Forum Update with a member and he noted one drawback of the Forums new look. I agree

For those of us who visit once a day or so it was easy to view the list of ‘Unread and recently updated topics’ at the bottom of the page and see a much longer (complete?) list of posts made since one’s last visit. The new look only identifies five ‘Unread and recently updated topics’ and it now necessary to go through the time consuming, inefficient process of examining each individual forum to determine if any new posts have been made.

I belong to another site and when it is not working correctly it looks like this one.  Is this a basic layout of a better but more expensive look?

Has the website / forum had another update recently?

Totally agree with Tedk’s comments.  New posts section needs to be lengthened or as an alternative, highlight the new posts with olding or color differentiation in the topic section.
