    What happened to the front page?

    www.bt3central.com used to take me to a list of recent posts, now it takes me to the forums. It looks like index.php is now the same as forum.php.

    I assume this is a glitch from today's upgrade.

    Yea, it looks like the index.php isn't the CMPS page anymore.

        Clicking on New Posts should work as well. But I too liked the other home page better.

          Another vote for the old way. It's hard to accept change.

            BT3 front page?

            Did the front page for the site change? Before it was the listings of the most updated posts. Now it's the page with the forums listed. What's the url to the recently updated page as I'd like to use that for my bookmark shortcut?

            Oh, and thanks for your effort in keeping the site running Sam. Hands down my favorite WW site.

                I agree, too. I've felt utterly lost all day.

                  I just replaced my bookmark with the link Bob shows above. Feels pretty much the same as the "old way"...

                      using the other link is only a halfway fix. It doesnt show you the link thats normally at the top that shows how many posts since you last were online and then it lets you go and view just those posts.

                      Can we go back to the old way - PLEASE

                        C'mon guys, no need to go bananas.... just a by-product of the emergency upgrade. In the future, whenever things don't look right just let a me or a moderator know.... we will fix it right up.

                          I wasn't worried. I knew Sam would come through.
