What happened to DU Groups?

[NewJeffCT]

Did I miss the message about them changing? I normally see like over 100, but now see like 5. Did I change a setting by accident, or are they a new format?

1. It's a new format

There are 102 groups. The 5 you see are sub-forums which each contain groups.

4. I'm sure I would have figured it out eventually

maybe by the weekend...

Thanks!!!

2. Looks like a lot of them are consolidated under

a handful of more general headings. I found the DU Artists Group in "Personal Interests."

3. The groups are subdivided into folders.

The groups are still there...just filed into 5 folders. :-)

I don't know if Skinner will post about this or not. You might PM him if you have any questions.

5. It freaked me out too

The time comsuming part is finding your groups in the subfolders now.

6. you can add your favorites to a "my groups" list that will be on the

left pane of the latest window. I have about 7 groups I visit regularly and it really helps to have a quick link on the main page to go there.

here's a link to the FAQ on how to customize your favorite forums
