The new discussion website is absolute rubbish. It's so user unfriendly, god knows how to navigate it. I certainly will not try looking at it again. If the idea was to prevent members easy access to express their views you have in my opinion certainly succeeded. Bring back the old easy accessible site!!!

I tried to access it on my Samsung tablet last night but could not get the Compose box to come up. It works on the PC though so not sure if there is a problem but will try again later.

Wow. You can "Like" your own post. I tried it, just for fairness I also "Unliked" it afterwards. Good job we don't have stars anymore.

The jump to last post facility wasn't working earlier but just worked for me now. I also couldn't get to the last post from the cover page (is that the right description?)Are there any instructions on how to load photos from an iPad anywhere?

PS both now seem to be working. I like that the original post stays at the top of each page, it saves looking back on some of these mammoth threads when it's easy for those of us of a certain age to forget 🤓

Well my feed back is I don't like the new discussion site.

The huge pictures mean there are less conversations per page, so lots more scrolling to the bottom to go to the next page.

Please reduce the image sizes and allow more discussions/comments per page plus next page buttons at top and bottom of the page., would make the site easier to use.

Lastly it feels a lot slower than the old site but maybe that is teething troubles?

This is a classic example of someone in the IT department being given free reign to design a forum page from the ground up! Rather than using tried and tested forum software that would take 30min to setup they've tried to reinvent the wheel and the result is horrible........unusable IMHO!

Do not know what has happened now. The 'discussions' link button is not displaying correctly

When I started using my tablet a few hours ago it was fine. It now appears to have become a specialised hell for tablet users. If this is improvement I'm a Dutchman!! 

 

MOST UNHAPPY.!!

 Where has the search by Map gone, now i have no idea where the sites are without having to cross reference with Google maps.

Not impressed the prime function of the website has gone

I bet Specsavers are making a fortune out of CC Members who are having eye tests to get new glasses to see the pale type on the forums.

Can anyone actually see the box to tick at the side of 'Remember my details' when logging in - or is it just me who can't?
