Does anyone see these blogs that are posted? Lots of them are questions that never get replies to them.

The last entry was 3 weeks ago.

lol. Then I guess my answer is, "no I don't see the blogs that are posted".

I am clicking on the blog button on the top tabs (the one next to forum) and the newest blog that comes up is 2014. Is there another location or button?

It would be helpful if the dates of the comments were shown so that it would be easy to see when new things are posted.

Change your view options so the latest and not the oldest shows up...

I am seeing the same as Scooby and they are the most recent. The oldest go to 2010 on my screens.

I also don't see the view option button on my screen.

You do not have a "in line mode" with a drop down arrow?

That is the window I am on. Kind of weird. I'll play with the page settings and see if there any things I can update.

Okay I think I figured it out.. To change the order of how the posts are shown you go to "settings" located at top right of screen and then down to "thread display options" , "thread display mode" and used the drop down selection tool.

That is just the way I view the order of new post on the forum. You can do what makes you feel comfortable. ;)

This is really weird. I also have it set up that way as well but the way I set it is completely different. I don't see those options under the settings tab drop down selection tool.

Under my account screen on the left side I have general settings and from there I have linear display newest first.

Well poop, I thought I posted screen shots..

Do you have that feeling that we are chasing each others tails? LOL...

Don't feel bad Oscar, I don't have those options either. Maybe we are an elite group.
The only thread options I can find are for emails through the forum, nothing about blogs.
Maybe only Moderators can see the newest blogs. ???
This is what I have found.

That just might be the difference. Oh well...

If you want to see the most current entries, you have to click on each of the "comments" of the blog entry.

That will show the comments for that blog entry but our latest blog is from 2014. Are there any new blogs since then?

I am viewing the blog section as a moderator so the blog page looks way different from what you see. There are some recent (last few months) but they look like they need approved in order to be viewed with others. For right now I will default to Connie for that and find out from her the moderation rules for that section.

Did anyone ever figure out the issues with this?
Also since the forum homepage was changed a link back to the homepage was deleted. I miss it.

On my original question I think we figured it out as me being a MOD and the page loads different for me. Yes the menu change seems to have removed several of the link/tabs..
