Digest Layout

I, for one, much prefer the old layout. I go to sections that I'm interested in. Browsing through all posts to find ones I'm interested in is NOT appealing. I do go to the bottom of the page because some of the sections I want to read are there. I really don't understand your logic on this. I am much less likely to go to the bottom of the page when the topics are randomly listed. In fact, it is so irritating that I may just skip reading the forum altogether.

Just click on "Home" at the top left and it takes you the pages you have subscribed to, which I assume are the pages you are interested in.

Thanks Tom, that helped. Wonder why Admin could not tell us lowly subscribers that?

But there may be times when one wishes to see a different (not subscribed to) page because a topic on that page has piqued their interest.

If you aren't subscribed to a section it won't be in your digest anyway (if you're logged in when viewing). Just go to "all sections" at bottom of this page and browse to your heart's content.

Yupp, then one would just go to the bottom of the page and click all sections, yes one has to work a little harder to find what one is looking for, I dont like the way myself, but once one gets used to it, no biggie.....

And this from the Admin: UPDATE: If you need to filter digest topics to just one section, you can do it by clicking "Filter by section" near top left of the digest page, right under the headline "Ugly Hedgehog forum digest".

This way you can quickly locate all topics in the digest that belong to one section in which you are interested. The number in the parentheses shows the number of topics for the given section in the current digest issue.

---------------------------

Yes, but now I have to do this for each section I want to look at. Before, all of those sections were automatically listed. Why make extra work for us for a change that, for me, is less than worthless? I still don't understand the logic of this change and still find it VERY irritating. It makes it harder for me to use the digest for the purpose I use it for.
