There's someone in my head but it's not me

Main page - Link to take it to the forums. « on: March 19, 2008, 02:33:26 PM »

Any reason why the link takes me to the "Andy Talk" page now instead if "MurraysWorld Discussions" page?

Probably was changed for a reason. The "Forum" link still goes to the index....  Think

It's probably because new people to the site will be interested in it for Andy talk rather than all the rest of it. At least, intially, anyway.

That's exactly why Smile

Sorry to any of those who used that link regularly as a way to check the forum, there are a couple of other links on the homepage you can use instead: 1) Above the list of latest threads. 2) 'Forum' link on the left navigation.

I just don't like change. I will now change my link for this site to the main forum rather than the main site. Not a disaster for anyone just surprised it changed.

Why not just use one of the other two links?

I changed it for that image because probably most new users would click there over any other forum link, that's just an assumption though.

I'd agree.

I just come to the main index anyway, never go to the front page....

I didn't know there was other links. Not really a visual person myself but I really like the "Take it the forums" link. One of the best I have see TBH. And thats why I like it to "Take me to the forums" and not, take me to the just Andy stuff.

Personally I always click "Forums" at the bottom left of navigation, try getting into a habit of doing that instead Wink

I do use the "take me to the forums" button regularly. But its not too much of a pain to click "MurraysWorld Discussions" right after.
