Sorry, the "watched topics" link at top of any page.

Sadly there is no manual to explain how to use the site. New members I am sure are at a loss trying to find their way around and like using the forum due to the lack of one.

I don't know what a Watched Folder is nor how to make one unless Linda is referring to you going to your Profile where you can see the list of all sections on the forum. There you can subscribe/unsubscribe to individual sections.
Then when you come onto UHH you can select Digest and it will just show those sections.

Maybe this helps?

And, like any website or participatory forum, people shouldn't hesitate to explore on their own

If people want random or disorganized digests, they're welcome to them.
There are undoubtably topics I will miss seeing because I don't go through an ordered digest every day picking out interesting threads on, say, birds or macro photography. I'm comfortable with that, I hope those posters are.
And if I read the mood of the crowd, I would expect overall read counts to go down considerably, and probably ad clicks as well. Unlike others, I suspect the ads make a fair profit for the site owner(s).

I HATE the new format. It makes no sense to me: no structure, and I have to scroll through the whole lot just to find subjects I am interested in. That wastes a lot of time. Please return to headline format.
The new system is terrible! I come here to relax, enjoy pictures , to learn, to share my pics for comments and tips etc. I am constantly lost in the new chaos and cannot follow any one subject that I like . I feel blind and lost. I will not stay here anymore on a daily basis…If it does not go back to the old way! It feels like an old friend is in his last dying moments I am sad tonight. It used to be a real treasure here. Walt

Have you read Admin's posts on this subject? There are work arounds to the digest.

I wonder if people who post, especially those who post a lot, have noticed whether or not there has been a decline in the number of responses they have received?

I agree with you 100% sir, I was on here daily looking for my favorite PhotoGS, i don't see their pics anymore?? I've been on here since 2000 and now i seldom even open it up! If the management brought back the original program then would be a lot more people on here; but as for now i just peak in to keep my membership alive.

I know they posted an 'explanation' of why they changed things around, but I think of the old expression, "I it ain't broke, don't fix it". I can't think of anything that was broke that needed fixing. Another expression, "the squeaky wheel, gets the grease." Fellow hoggers, keep squeaking, maybe we'll get some grease.

I agree with you. I just returned to UHH and what a mess. I don't have time to go through all of that garbage. I want to learn se pretty pictures of yet another sunset or bird sitting on a tree.You made a mistake UHH

I'm in the same boat as the 70+ group. Go back to the old way, if not tell me how to fix it......

Not sure what "unreasonableness" is but if it not being able to navigate through the hoops than I
guess I fit in that category. I hear such things as Digest and other acronyms. I look at the top of the
page and do not see what others are writing about.
I did not post a lot but when I had a problem I would post and sure enough members would help
me out.
I am not criticizing how things have changed as I know nothing stays the same.
All I want to say is THANK YOU for those that helped me in the past and my fingers are crossed
that a solution can be found that will help all members both young and old navigate through this forum. And yes, I fit in the old members category.
