What do you think of the new forum structure?

It will take some getting used to! eg. How do you find unread posts?

Not a lot at this point. The 'active topics since last visit' option appears to have gone awol, plus I have been 'demoted' to around half of my forum posts.  I bet Terry has had them added onto his………Still, sometimes I don't feel very important anyway …..It is a bit harder to navigate, but I guess we'll see how used to it we get.  Can always go elswhere I guess….

Hi all,
Im only a nubee but still wanna throw my 2 cents in, The web page is alot faster to browse through than last time wich is excellent, simple and effective like all wepages should be. I am a web designer my self and was just wondering what platform you are using? Also just a quick thanks to Steve and Dave, I have been following your seminars and books for a couple years now and just begining to get the swing of things and really enjoying the joys and pains of property investing.

Cheers

Steve – I like the speed of the new site, because it was getting very slow before. I don't mind not seeing how many people read the posts, because it is the replies that I am interested in.

Maybe this is what everyone else said, but I can't figure out where you can go to see the forums that have been recently replied to. It just seems to organise them according to when they were created. I liked this feature because popular topics would keep bouncing back up on your screen.

Hi Guys,

The post count problem has been fixed and we are working on implementing an equivalent to the old "New Posts" system.

Lisa, you can search the forums (and the rest of the site) by using the search box at the top right of every page. This will take you to the search results page where you can also redefine your search parameters to help you even further.

The upgrade was a major platform transition, the next one will be focused more on design, functionality and usability . Please bear with us as we iron out the bugs.

Any comments/suggestions you have in the mean time are very welcome.

Yeah the active topics are out of whack… Technical support?

Yep speed is definaitely great.

Is there any chance that 'Active Topics' could be arranged by topic? I think it was before…

Just helped to break it all up a bit so you could look in sections you chose to, instead of having to scroll all trhough.

Many thanks

Peter

Hi guys,By clicking the Active Topics "More Topics" link [link removed as it is outdated] it will show all topics sorted by the last post date. If you want to sort by topic creation date, simply click the row heading "Created" twice. I'm not sure which is the preferred option, or if we should just make a seperate page for both sort methods.Maybe we should take a vote? – David

Yes you can. Just click the subscribe post button under the first post in any topic. You can maintain your subscriptions from the "My Subscriptions" link in your user block to the right of the screen. You can also subscribe to whole forum categories from that link.
