Has there been another format change?

I can no longer see the "Stories and Advice" section. There used to be a section at the top where you could choose Design Dilemna or Gardenweb. Now I only have "Get Ideas/Shop/Find Pros/Sale" at the top. This is using the PC - NOT the phone ap. Now I have to go navigate down the left side to find topics...I HATE THAT. PLEASE BRING BACK the navigation at the TOP.

If I use this link...I can see the missing section. WHY HAS IT BEEN REMOVED in the rest of the site??

I rarely use the word, but I hate what they've done to Houzz. It's basically just a shopping site now; all the material on the homepage is directed at shopping, shopping, shopping. I came here for ideas, for the community, the comments, all right I'll admit it---the pets, and now all that seems to be gone. Bad job, Houzz!

Its not gone - just ignore the puffery, hit "latest" in the upper right, and it takes you to "dscussions," etc

There is no "latest". That's my point. NO "Stories and Advice link for me at all. This is what I see at the top.

Sorry, I was talking about the app. But if I just go to Houzz.com on the laptop, I get your second image, with Stories and Advice right there. What url are you using? I actually have the pc set to open on Houzz Discussions rather than the main page.

Yeah I don't use the app....at all. It sucks. :-)

I use https://www.houzz.com/ (which looks like the first image - so it seems that you and I are seeing different things for the same url)...

but I always click on my notification icon to get to threads. I have never NOT seen the "Stories and Advice" section at the top....until last week...so they clearly have made a change.

Hi there, The top menu on the site has changed a bit. For discussions click on GET IDEAS and you'll see links to both editorial content and discussions there. Sorry for any confusion in the adjustment.
