what on earth is going on? i don't want to look at a long list of names. i like to look at the 'tips' and comments/ replies, because sometimes there is a question I didn,t know i wanted to ask (if that makes sense) and, a lot of very helpfull tips - one of which I wanted to try now. and cant because of the different format. Thanks

Brenda I agree with you entirely I expected the the boards to be similar to what they were with maybe 'Post reply' or 'Read reply' next to it. This format is confusing and frankly strange, maybe when more people have posted on the threads it will make more sense?

It will take a few days to get going as we had to copy the persons name into the topic for the old entries. Once the topics are added you will be able to view just one thread of the topic that interests you rather than a long list of mixed messages

As we said, its going to take some days for the new layout to bed down - we cant create the threads from the old messages as there was no ability to reply. Have a look at the few messages on the tips board and you will see how the new version is already working and will make things a lot easier in the future.

Please help I dont know whats going on but whatever it is I dont like it. one of the reasons I like this site so much, is that it was so easy to get around. I reckon thats it for me Debbie

As I said in my earlier post it has started to make sense now the threads are up and running the new layout is easier to understand and find things on but it seems to me that after a few days were going to be trawling through the threads just as we were through the messages. Stephen I know we seem ungrateful but its because we love this site its much better than the others out there!Would there be a way to make the threads searchable?
