I don't remember the digest, guess I never used that in the old format. I liked the unread button. I just want to read the things have just been posted. I don't want to keep getting the same thread with new posts in the What's New button. I figure the ones I wanted to see are being sent to me anyway.

Another using the archive button.

Thank you so much. I've been looking for a change in color of items read and unread. Why can't they do this on the home page?

Also click on "what's new"

I always click "recent topics". (upper right, in a blue-ish circle). And before I open anything, I check the date it was started That's near the composers name.

This is exactly what I do. The only thing I do different is if I want to follow a certain thread, I will repy to it. Then I get an email when someone adds to the thread. I will have to try that subscribe button.The daily digest list the "busiet threads" and sometimes those will stay on for days. :rolleyes:

I miss the Recipes. I got a lot of yummy new ideas there. I hope they aren't done refashioning this site. To use a quilting term, it's pretty wonky!

Why are the same topics or old topics coming up in the digests every day?
 

Every day I'm seeing the same topics come up in the digest, and some from months ago. Isn't anyone posting new topics?

I'm always wondering if I'm looking at the current day's digest or an old one.

I don't really care about the threads that are the most active. I liked the old digest that I could scan and see what was new and also after looking at it I could tell which one I had already looked at. It was hand all on one page and I could keep up with all the latest without looking at 4 pages to do so. I am computer literate and embrace change fiarly easily, but you have totally screwed up this site. Like others have posted on here, I looked forward to coming down in the morning and spending time on your site. But now I find that I spend less and less time on it. I used to tell people about your site and to be sure and sign up because it was so informative. But I won't be doing that now. I'm sorry that you felt the need to overhaul it instead of just enhancing some features that needed fixing. I see the same topics also come up and since I have already looked at them, I don't go look again. I just wonder how your traffic has been on this site since you changed the entire format.
