Am I the only one seeing new “stuff” at the top of the opening page. Honestly, I closed out of this site three times before it dawned on me to scroll down. It might have been nice to have a heads up about this change.
In addition, it looks like you eliminated chance me/match me entirely…or did I miss it?
That’s in the “find your people “section. I see it as its own box in the new header.
And “Find Your People”? Why was that wording chosen?
I am seeing this stuff on my phone, but not on my laptop.
It’s really annoying on the phone (leading to lots of scrolling).
Is there a preference somewhere to fix it?
Edited to add: Uh oh, spoke too soon. Now it’s on my laptop too.
I think what has happened is that the old theme (that didn’t have all the incredibly annoying huge images at the top) no longer exists on this site?
I was just referring back to this post
The option to select “Theme” no longer appears.
Paging @CC_Sorin , as others have recommended for this kind of thing.
It’s especially annoying on my phone, where I have to scroll down 4 screens to get to actual topics.
We launched a new technical update to the site earlier today, which apparently disabled the option to pick your theme. Just to confirm, what you see is the current layout of the site, so you do see the right thing.
However, I created a ticket for our devs to try to reinstate the previous option and will update you once I get a response.
Thank you. I’m not thrilled being someone’s “people”.
All these changes were discussed when the new homepage redesign was launched in February: Homepage redesign & forum restructuring: Community input needed
You can find Chance Me / Match Me as one of the top 4 featured categories.
I see chance me/match me in the top four choices. I was just surprised not to see it in any of the forums.
I really don’t like “Find Your People”. But I guess I’ll just scroll past that and get used to this…like all the other changes.
The theme option is back now. So I’m back to the old format, almost. The Parent Cafe and Politics forums are no longer split out - you have open the Parents Forum and select them individually. I can live with that, if it means getting rid of all that stuff at the top of the page.
I found it…it was under preferences on my profile!
@CC_Sorin could you print the directions here so others can easily do this?
And thank you!
This is what I posted on an earlier thread; I think it’s still accurate:
With the regular theme back…I don’t see the Chance Me/Match Me….at all.
Or the Parents Cafe…which is my favorite place to go!
Yeah, you have to go into the Parents Forum, then select the Cafe. An extra step, but you can still get there.
Hallelujah!!!
