26. So you are demanding several links to that new home page, which you hate?

You're getting a little out of control here. Take a chill pill... have a drink or two...

Highlight:

IMPORTANT: The Latest Discussions link at the top & bottom of every page does NOT go to the home page. There should be a link to the home page. [View all] highplainsdem Oct 2023 OP

The link to the Home Page is at the top of every page. Just click on "Democratic Underground". n/t TygrBright Oct 2023 #1

Every message board I've used, and I used a lot of them and was an admin with highplainsdem Oct 2023 #2

Every board I've used, and I've been a moderator on more than one, links the main name muriel_volestrangler Oct 2023 #30

And they use simple, unmistakable text links as well and don't rely on highplainsdem Oct 2023 #31

I'm not blaming DU's users; I'm just pointing out this is not IMPORTANT muriel_volestrangler Oct 2023 #33

It might not be important to YOU. It's extremely important to all the people highplainsdem Oct 2023 #36

Nah, they don't IMO. Happy Hoosier Oct 2023 #47

THIS !!!! DemocraticPatriot Oct 2023 #23

And btw, although having a banner or logo as a link to the home page is highplainsdem Oct 2023 #3

I didn't know we had a Home Page anymore. I thought the big Democratic Underground was just patricia92243 Oct 2023 #4

DU4 has been causing way too much confusion for users, and it is NOT the fault highplainsdem Oct 2023 #7

This message was self-deleted by its author Celerity Oct 2023 #9

Yes, I had to ask in a number of threads Tumbulu Oct 2023 #21

All was revealed in EarlG's posts to all of us prior to the move to DU4. sinkingfeeling Oct 2023 #49

Like the big DU in the middle of the top of every page? RockRaven Oct 2023 #5

That is NOT an adequate replacement for the standard text links. highplainsdem Oct 2023 #6

It says "DU" and goes to democraticunderground dot com slash index RockRaven Oct 2023 #8

If it were adequate, the earlier versions of DU would not have highplainsdem Oct 2023 #10

Well, "DU" *is* text, & the link is MORE omnipresent as a upper screen banner RockRaven Oct 2023 #19

So I guess you think all the earlier versions of DU were dumb compared to highplainsdem Oct 2023 #20

You are certainly free to guess and speculate and assume anything you like RockRaven Oct 2023 #24

Okay. Point taken about that banner at the top being omnipresent. But it still highplainsdem Oct 2023 #27

Mine does not stay at top or bottom. I am on PC. n/t patricia92243 Oct 2023 #29

In my experience, it's pretty standard for the name banner of a forum, blog etc. Emrys Oct 2023 #11

Sigh. One more time. It's standard to have text links to the home highplainsdem Oct 2023 #13

Please don't sigh at me. Emrys Oct 2023 #15

See my reply 16. Those DU Home links, in the lines of links at the top highplainsdem Oct 2023 #18

OK, my memory isn't failing me Emrys Oct 2023 #14

Yes, it is a hyperlink. I just clicked that DU Home link at both the highplainsdem Oct 2023 #16

Not on my system it isn't! Emrys Oct 2023 #17

Emrys, you are mistakenly clicking the link for the page I said the DU Home highplainsdem Oct 2023 #22

Again, go to this page, the first page of GD that moment earlier this month: highplainsdem Oct 2023 #25

Did you try the links on the archived GD page, instead on clicking on highplainsdem Oct 2023 #32

No, I've been attending to a post of mine on Editorials & Other Articles, Emrys Oct 2023 #35

I knew the logo was a link. But not having the text links to the home page highplainsdem Oct 2023 #37

I guess it depends on how people enter the forum each time. Emrys Oct 2023 #38

Well, if you can find a few seconds to click on those text links you said weren't links, highplainsdem Oct 2023 #40

Nope. Paid work calls. n/t Emrys Oct 2023 #41

And I have company coming, and wish there weren't all these problems with DU4 highplainsdem Oct 2023 #44

And btw, I'm posting in GD because the people having trouble getting to highplainsdem Oct 2023 #39

Posting on Community Help might get you more recs than 3. Emrys Oct 2023 #43

So I'll post a link to it in Community Help later, if he misses it here. highplainsdem Oct 2023 #45

I cited recs as a measure of interest and approval, perhaps even visibility, not any measure of kudos. Emrys Oct 2023 #46

So you are demanding several links to that new home page, which you hate? DemocraticPatriot Oct 2023 #26

No. I am saying the two standard text links to the Home page used highplainsdem Oct 2023 #28

Man I wish I had this much time in my life. edisdead Oct 2023 #34

The only reason this thread is as long as it is now is that some people highplainsdem Oct 2023 #42

See post #49. Apparently lots of users failed to read the DU4 information provided by EarlG. sinkingfeeling Oct 2023 #50
