The top left detailing forums link doesn't seem to be working. I had to access to forum from the links inside the box.

I think he is referring to the link at the top left below the logo and tool bar that says "detailingforums.com". When I go to www.detailingforums.com (http://www.detailingforums.com) it brings me to a page that shows the latest posts in the middle, but not the forum topics. If you click on the link below the tool bar it just reloads that page. I have to actually click on the "forum" link lower down in the navigation box to get the page with all of the topics, but maybe it's supposed to be like that.

detailingforums.com brings you to the homespage. ;) The link below the logo that says, "detailing forums" I guess we could point to the forums instead of the homepage. I will ask Brad to look at it for me because if you go to the Calendar and click it to go back it takes you to the forums and not the home page anyway. But I think it is made so you have to click the actual "forum" link.

Yeah, I don't think it's a big deal, but I think it might be a little more intuative to click on the "detailingforums.com" link to reach the forums instead of the forum link farther down. Or at least if the "forum" link could be made larger. It took me a couple minutes to find it the first time.

Ah... we're talking about the www.detailingforums.com from the home page. I thought we were talking about the forums index. :D

I believe this is caused by the path used for the link.. it most likely is just pointing at /index.php instead of /forums/index.php. I can probably change this to an absolute path to fix the issue.

Yeah, I'm not sure about dublow, but I'm referring to the link directly below the "User CP" on the forum home page.

Maybe the link for the logo at the top can be changed to make it easier. I noticed that when I go to the home page where it only shows the recent posts in the center, and click on the logo at the top it just reloads the same page. But if I click on the forum link and go to the forum index page or go to any post, and click on the logo at the top it will bring me back to the forum index. Maybe the logo should be made to go to the index when you are at the home page instead of reloading the home page.

Is this the link you are all refering to?

Yeah that's the one. I know how to fix it, I just haven't yet.

The one at the bottom doesn't go to the forums page either:

We are working on it. I am working on a new layout actually. I will be going to the basic standard vBulletin with some minor changes. The template I have now is a pain in the rear.
