Suggestion Make Logo Link To Forums

    I would really appreciate (and I bet many others will as well) if the DP logo directed to the forums index instead of the portal. It is annoying clicking the forums link to get back to the forum index because the subforum drop down thing comes up everytime.

    There's always a direct link to the forums just underneath that in the page navigation breadcrumb.

    Not exactly sure what you mean. I am guessing the home->forums->the digital point thing? I still think the logo should link back to the forum index since that is where most members spend most of their time.

    Well, not all members spend most there time there... There are some users who come to the site every day and never come to the forum part. So changing it to what *you* prefer would just in turn cause others to complain that it's linked to the forum.

    Is the direct link in the breadcrumb not on your screen somehow when the logo is?

    Just below the social/twitter bar is the breadcrumb Shawn referred to and that should meet your requirements.

    I think they are more complaining about the fact that sometimes that link needs to be clicked 2-3 times for it to work as if it's hovered over it pops up a box with all forums in which could be annoying too.

    Just needs to be clicked once if the popup is showing on hover.


    But either way, there is no popup navigation on the breadcrumb, so...

    I just noticed that the DP homepage, the one the logo takes you to, has changed. That page used to be old school homepage of DP. Now, it is like some up to date blog linking to current interesting stuff.
