    Guys, how do i get to the forums when I am on another part of DP? Clicking on FORUMS in the nav just gives a drop down and doesnt take me to forums.digitalpoint.com

    The only way I see is by starting to type forums after the https:// and my computer makes connection that this is the site I always go to and fills it in for me. Who says there is not big brother watching?

    So I've found a significant problem on the DP site, anyone reading this from DP, can you get it fixed!? If you want me to pay to use your site I'd like it to work properly :)

    Our coder completed many customized updates this summer. I doubt if there are any coding updates before the first of the year. Sorry but moderators do not do coding for the site.

    Seriously, we cannot get to the FORUMS from e.g. the inbox. This could be fixed in less than 1 minute. Stunned at your reply.

    The "forums" link works ok for me, I just hover over the link and once the dropdown appears just click the "forums" link, takes me to the forum homepage.
    Can't see much of an issue with it..

    What's wrong with these two links? They're visible everywhere.

    Yes they are ...if you are already in the forums area! Think you have misread my message. Anyway, it can be done its just not very intuitive. Try going to your inbox for example and then getting back to forums.

    If you double click the word 'forums' it does work. It does from here ;)

    As another guy said, if you hover over the Forums button and wait for the dropdown menu to load, and then click the Forums button, then it will take you to the forums page. That's the way I've always done it since I've been here and it's always worked for me.

    His point was that if you are in search or private messages you don't get the dropdown.

    You don't get the dropdown with the list of different forums, you get a small dropdown instead. Still, clicking the forums button after the smaller dropdown has loaded still does take you back to the forum homepage.
