before we had latest posts listed on our homepage. It wasn’t very clear for (new) forum users what they could find where. I just made a few changes to that. Now we have the categories listed and next to it the latest posts. The details depend of course on being logged in or not, and what groups and access level one has.
This is what someone not logged in sees now:
Ops members will see several internal categories as well.
Note also the Top menu, now showing: Categories , Latest, Agenda, Top, and when logged in: My Posts. We could change this, for example including also Bookmarks (if we start using them).
Possibly you have more suggestions for improvements?
