‘FORUM’ Link sends to search..

[funkyfoo]

clicking on the forum button sends me to a search page, thought the forum had gone!!

deleted the extra’s in the url and fortunately ended up back in the forum.

sorry if its already been spotted.

the link the forum sends to is this one..
http://www.partyvibe.com/vbulletin/search.php?searchid=489996

Yes, that’s the “active topics” page which shows you all threads with new posts in since you last visited.

There are a few other little glitchy things going on. I should imagine it will be sorted in due course.

For anyone wanting to get to the normal forum layout, click this: http://www.partyvibe.com/vbulletin/index.php

Or click the “partyvibe” link near the top of the page where it breaks down the forum area you are in.

I did that deliberately yesterday in order to overcome the fact Active Topics isn’t obvious. Would you rather it took you to forumhome?

Doesn’t bother me as you can get back to the forum (main) by clicking the small partyvibe text at the top of the page. (Just underneath the main HOME button. 😉

yes forum home would be better, doesnt explain where int he forum you are, and also when reading a topic, just above it is usually the map to where you are in the forum

i.e. partyvibe>forum>chat>community etc

meaning you can normally click back to the front page but witht he method in use now it doesnt do that, bet the forum wont be as active as normal cuz not all people are PC savvy.

the active topics and unanswered posts should be an option as on some forums i use the ‘view all new posts’ link but with how many sections this forum has i think itd hinder rather than help by auto sending members to it without at least having a header link to the main page of forum.

sorry for moaning as its not my forum i know but i found it a bit of a pain getting my self out of their and realising that the forum hasnt been changed.

ill leave it with as i dont want to seem un grateful in anyway.

Peace

Foo.

im with foo i thought i was stuck in the unread topics/active topice page and couldnt get out… it has been confusing me a bit i did prefer it how it worked before, not the design, but id prefer the buttons to still do the same things they did before the switch if that makes any sense.

Dont want to sound ungratefull tho.

im sure your working hard DrB :crazy_diz
