GW improvements

The biggest gripe I have with this forum is that it doesn't look like a FORUM. There's no info on how many people are looking at a certain thread and how many times it's been clicked on, and who answered it last! I like the Microsoft word "Table" look where you have nice definite lines between each topic and you can skim down through and see what the new discussions are and who is where! This feels too disjointed and I can never figure out when there is a new comment on a thread I haven't seen yet, so I waste all kinds of time clicking around trying to figure out which threads I'm up to date on and which I'm not.

So that's my soap box.

Hi Suyoder -

When you are looking at the main listing page for the forum, the font color on the posts that you have already read will turn from green to gray. They will turn back to green when a new post has been added.

You can also choose to see more information about a post using the display option boxes. This will allow you to scroll down the page and see the name of the last poster to the thread.

I've added a couple of screenshots below to help illustrate. Please let me know if you have any other questions or issues and I'll be happy to help!

Color changes color and shows how to display more info:

This new format seems to have great potential, once we learn all the features it offers. In the long run, it will be easier to use than the older format. Joane
