Main Landing Page
-
Currently when you put in www.mangolassi.it, you land on the Categories page.
Do you prefer this or would you rather land on the Unread Topics page?
This is something that we can change so wanted to know what you all would like.
-
Not unread, recent topics.
-
Doesn't matter to me one way or another.
-
I feel like the groups have little purpose and just make things more confusing or at least less useful when you first land. One extra click to see what is going on.
-
The other pages are easy enough to get to.
Is it customizable per user?

Does not appear to be. The skin is, the landing page is not.

The Recent view would be the best view to land someone on IMO.
The problem with landing a new person teaching them about the forums structure.
When starting a new topic from the Recent view, the category selection is not in an obvious place. It is way off to the right.
Also a more general style complaint, the Topic title and tags are not clearly defined "boxes" even though the text is there.

I'll insert screenshot later. imgur is overloaded..

I noticed imgur not working here too.

I like the idea of recents rather than categories. I never use the categories.

Poor giraffe.

I had to break down and post to twitter to get a URL for the images

Recent seems logical to me. I don't really care either way.

I prefer the unread view, but that should not be a landing page. because people landing may not be signed in or even members.

Seems like a trend, made the change. Let's see how people like it.
-
Direct link to the categories, if anyone needs it...

Any chance of making Categories an icon on the top bar?

Will need to figure out how to make that happen.

Yeah we need it back. It's too disorganized to find anything now.

What were you trying to find via the categories page? In what way was it enabling sorting? Were you going into specific categories to look for content?
