Thread: Change to the top row nav buttons

We cleaned up the top row buttons to provide room for more important stuff.

Casino is now under community.
New posts is under quick links.
User cp is now under quick links.

I don't care much for the casino but the other two buttons will be missed dearly.

They're still there, but under the quicklinks menu. Granted, it takes an extra second. I can understand new posts, but do you really access your user cp that often?

yes, those were actually the only two buttons that I used all the time.

Out of curiosity: what do you use the user cp for? Reading messages etc can be done via the 'private messages' link. And other than that, the only interesting stuff are settings that hardly ever change. Then again, I don't use all forum possibilities, so I could be missing something.

I use the CP, because it immediately brings me to all my subscribed threads that have new replies and to all new PMs.

It's the first page I visit when I log in.
After checking the new replies out, my second "navigational" mouse click is the New Post button.

You just cleaned out my 2 most used buttons in the top row.
Don't worry about it: I don't mind spending 2 clicks where I could get by with one previously. There's still something called "favorites" in any web browser.

Kind regards,
Bart.

Yes.
In the mornings when I log in, I go to User-CP and read all the new posts in subscribed threads.
When I'm through with them, I spend the rest of the day hammering "New Posts".
I hardly use the index page or anything else.

You've removed the two buttons I use most as well. New Posts is the button I use most. New Posts is where I spend the majority of my time. When I move to the Classifieds or Wiki, I use the New Post button to take me back.

CP I use to discover threads I'm subscribed to, that have new posts added to them, but are off the New Posts page.

I rarely use "Quick Links" because it takes two clicks, which isn't very quick.

I'll just add that those were the two buttons that I used the most as well.

Not trying to pile on, but we were actually just discussing this in chat.
