Ok! Looks like the Communities Staff got the member count etc. listed again under the who is online box. Way to go guys. I thought that was a cool feature.

Also, if you go to the "blogs" link I can see that there is the option to see comments etc again which is nice.

 Thanks again! :-P

C-faith Admin......You're almost there!  Everything is just great, except for one thing.  That is the "Most Popular Blogs."  I am a professional in a busy group practice and am very involved in our local church as well, etc....time is precious!  Because I don't have time to access every single blog and read them all,  the "Most Popular Blog List" helps me immensely by highlighting what seems to be most important to the members at large.  Conversely, I believe there may be important blogs that will get lost in this new format and not be accessed by many members  and visitors because of the blog volume.  Suggestion.....Have a "Most Popular Blogs" section that could cover a month at a time.  Then start over with new Most Popular Blogs list for the next month. (??)  This would make much greater use of my time which is already limited.  I wish I had the time to read all of the blogs and forums but, for me,  that is just not feasible. 

Hey AmeriKan,

The most popular blogs link is actually there. It is located under the "Recent Blogs" at the bottom of the box:

Well...PTL!!   Was it (Popular Blogs) there all the time when I posted at 7:45 PM and I just couldn't find it?

So is there anything you guys are unable to find. Did you ever have the thought, "I wonder where they put ______"? If so let us know and we can point you in the right direction! Thanks everyone for your patience as we moved to the new look. I think it's a drastic improvement over the old one (maybe I'm biased) and I hope it is a blessing to everyone. Change may be a little painful at first, but it's for the best.   

How about the members' blog search engines? I know if they type in "Praise Reports" for example in their own blogs that my posts will be in their blog...

SpeaktheWord,

On the home page there are four boxes. starting with the upper, left-most box and reading clockwise, they are: Join Our Community, Active Forums, Unanswered Forums, and Recent Blogs.

"Recent Blogs" is the lower, left-most box. At the very bottom, inside the "Recent Blogs" box, there are two links: one says "Popular Blogs" and the other says "More Recent Blogs."

You really can't see this? Please let me know when you get a chance...thanks!

Doc,

This is a known issue, and we have a fix for it. Actually, we tried to apply the fix today, and ran into some additional problems (if you noticed site problems between 10 am and 11 am CST then this is probably what caused it). It may have to wait until next week before it gets fixed, but we do have it on our radar, and we do know how to fix it.

C-Faith Admin......The site is and looks wonderful.  You have really outdone yourselves and it is much appreciated!!  I'm sure you are still working on a few glitches.   Thankyou for the excellence of service and your anointed work.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. There are a couple minor glitches, but overall the site upgrade went well. Thanks again everyone!
