How do you like the new website?

Forums as a main link?
Bill Johnson

Can we add Forum as a main option, and not bury it under Members?

Are forum Read Access and/or Posting messages limited to Members only, or can a guest read and/or Post to a forum topic?


It might be beneficial if guests could post questions to at least one forum.

Hey Bill, glad to see you made it in.


There is a lot of flexibility with regards to how we can setup forums. At present the forum selection is for members only & under its menu.


On the old website everyone could read them but only members could post.


I’m open to changing it as you suggest. Let me do a little homework and come back with what is possible. At first glance I don’t believe anyone but a member with a login account could post but they could read them.

I have added Forums to the Public menu. Only the forums set-up as Public will be displayed & a login account is required to post.


We also now have the option for folks to signup for a 2-month trial membership at no cost & this will allow posting on the public forums.
