MODS - Please, NO More Changes for Awhile !!!

Sep 5, 2012 6:55 PM

The main page at http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere has had (seemingly) a new look every day for about a week... someones more than one new look in a day

 

As of 09-05-12 at 7PM (West Coast USA time) to the main Premiere page looks "great"

 

Please... let's keep this look for at least a week, to give people time to react and think about what they are seeing... and maybe comment here to agree, or disagree, with me

    Hmm... I'll bet you also subscribe to the idea that "The Floggings Will Continue Until Morale Improves!"

     

    I don't really have any idea who is behind all the recent changes, but keeping something for a few days so people may comment just sounds like a good idea to me

    Silly boy. What makes you think they care about our opinion on the subject?

    Personally I think all that nonsense should just go away and the link should go straight to Discussions.  We really don't need Overview, All Content, Documents, Reports and Videos.  The only tab we really need is the only one missing form the lineup - Discussions.

    Jim, as a forum host you see the tabs. Registered users do not see them. All they get is the Overview. They can access the Discussions view by changing the url to http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premierepro_current?view=di scussions (note that is for the "current version" sub forum. There are no discussions at the top page (http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere?view=discussions).

    John C,

     

    That is not true of all forums, and even in the Premiere hierarchy. I get, and can set several of my Premiere family forums to Discussions, but not all, such as Pr/PrPro CS 4 & Earlier, plus PrPro CS 5/CS 5.5/CS 6. I get Overview ONLY, unless I manually add "discussions" to the URL.

     

    I suppose that I just need to redo all of my Bookmarks, from a Discussions page, and blow away all the old ones, that once allowed for me to set the default.

     

    Hunt, Off to redo his Bookmarks...

    Bill, it sounds like you are not a host/admin in those forums. Do you have other admin tools there?

    John C.,

     

    You are correct - only in some.

     

    Thanks,

    Maybe, but who the hell wants to do that!?  Just take us straight to Discussions when we click the link for the forum we want to be in.  No preamble, just the good stuff - questions and answers.

    Jim,

     

    Personally, I agree with you.

     

    Going back a bit, one had the ability to set Discussions as the default for their various forum viewing. I miss that.

    I agree with Jim to 100% on this one.

     

    Non-hosts should see the same things as hosts, iow being able to see the tabs as well. Discussions should be the default view, not Overview.

     

    For example, log out and go to the Encore forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/encore

    There you can click on the link under Discussions and then you will be taken to this adress and view the Discussions: http://forums.adobe.com/community/encore/encore_general?view=discussio ns (Try to do the same in the Premiere Pro forum...)

     

    I cannot find a link to the Discussions in the Premiere Pro forum, there is no link that takes me to http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premierepro_current?view=di scussions either.

     

    Changing URL's to see Discussions feels like 1995 and not 2012.

    That's what I'm talkin' 'bout.

    John T.,

     

    About the time that I get the layout of the PrPro Forums in my mind, things change. For a bit, the layout was about the same, as for PS, but now, it's hunt and scroll.

     

    Guess that if they keep me guessing, then my mind does not stagnate... or maybe not?

     

    Hunt
