Forum Navigation

Where'd the little links that let you navigate through the various subforums at the top of thread go?

I have to say, the missing links are annoying, especially when I'm in a thread and want to get back to the main page. There's the jump to box at the bottom of the thread, but I like the old way to do it better.

Me too. It makes it really difficult to navigate back to the forum you were just browsing.

CHalk me up as another longtime user who finds the disappearance of these links annoying at best.

I only see it when I look at the thread list for a forum, not in an actual thread. I don't know if it's related to the missing navigation, but neither thing was there a few hours ago.

I've got to say that the top navigation really, really helped. I used that dozens of time a day. I will check back ocaisonally but until it comes back or a similar feature is created I will be not be using the forums much.

Well I'm assuming they'll come back, I figure they've disappeared in error working on something else.

Is this is an error, or a purposeful change? Anyway, the navigation links on top should come back.

Same thing here. And wasn't there a "My Account" or "User CP" link up top before, too? I used click on that to get right to my newly updated subscribed threads.

I must agree. t is very difficult to navigate the forums right now. (I'm thinking that changes are actively being made in the background and that when it's all said and done that Morrus will let us know what's going on.)

Hmm, I hadn't even noticed that those were gone, as well, and I use them all the time.
