Format change?

Did bariatric pal change the format of the forums today?

This is going to take some getting used to. Not liking it so far.

I had the same thought.. hopefully they won't keep it like this long...it's pretty bad.

I mean the old forums was an absolute diasaster to navigate, it had subs and subs and subs which diluted the whole thing. Don't know if this is optimal, but it could be an improvement

[mylighthouse 782]

Yeah, I actually really liked the broken down categories.

I prefer the old broken down categories as well....not liking it this way, it's harder to find posting categories - it's too general imo.

Thanks for everyone's feedback! We've added back most of the missing categories over the last 24 hours. The ones that weren't added back didn't have a topic posted to them in a long time. We only kept forums that have active and ongoing discussions. The majority of our members are on Mobile. Having many sub-forums isn't considered user-friendly these days. We're going to update the website Monday night to further optimize things on desktop and mobile. You should notice some new, fun and useful features available after that point. Soon after that, we are going to release a brand new mobile app which should make posting and use of the forums MUCH easier!

Hi there! It appears that you have a pretty complete profile - were you able to figure this out or do you still need assistance? If you do still need help, please let me know what you're having an issue with and we'll get it sorted out.

Thanks and Happy New Year!
