New Site Layout
« on: January 07, 2025, 11:26:18 am »
Greetings all,

Are my tired old eyes deceiving me?  I seem to see a new layout on the main site.  Not sure if I like it or not, I should give myself some time to get used to it. 

That being said, if there were one change I would like to see here is that there is a large banner placed at the top of the forum screens to allow you to go back to the main site.  I realize the main site is separate (software wise) from the forum but still.  Why make it so hard?  Or, am I missing something?

Cheers all!

Nothing has changed on my desktop.  You are probably seeing the mobile phone version of the EEVblog forum, but on a desktop PC.  There should be a button to go back from mobile to desktop layout.

Leter edit:

If you mean Dave's blog layout https://www.eevblog.com, I don't know.  I spend most of the time on the EEVblog forum only https://www.eevblog.com/forum, the forum layout is the same as yesterday.

Yes, the change refers to the blog layout.  The forum layout is where I wish there was a quick way to get back to the blog.

Possible, but it's just something that the forum software doesn't have by default AFAIK.
A large banner would be distracting.
There is a link down the bottom left of the forum.
Could maybe be done as an additional menu option at the top.
