New Android Community Handset Sub-Forums Layout

Yes, it apply to G1 posts and all the handsets. the thing is when there are 20 handsets by HTC, the forum will be hard to navigate and harder to read.

ewdi, I might be being completely stupid but are you saying that, hey presto, the whole handset-related posting history of the Android Community Forums is gone forever???

Not at all, all of them are under the handset forum and categorized based on manufacturers (moved to that forum). Again, all the posts are still there

Ok, well I'm going to seem as thick as short planks here but...

if I want to find simms22's post about where to leave a space in a load of code following command prompt....

or if I want to read back on how Dr Veronica did with unrooting her phone...

or if I want to find my own post with a workaround for Windows 7 and HTC Sync...

how do I go about finding 'em in the newly themed site??

Plus, if I was a newcomer, I wouldn't even know these posts exist.

Search tool. add simms22's name to the user field, and keywords

we use full-text string and conditional on the forum. shouldn't be difficult to find things. and much faster than browsing a category

Another suggestion, can you make the links and hyper links a different color than the text, not just bold.

[ewdi]

all hyperlink are underlined

Ok, well I don't want to be an auld fella sittin' on the porch, talkin' about the good ol' days and impeding progress - especially since I only got here in August.

I've tried search and it works good-ish but I guess 'search' is for the 'now I need an answer fast' issues whereas browsing suggests a leisurely amble round AC and this seems now less possible with so much of history being stored in the basement.

I'm open to suggestions, but this is something we have to do to get the forum organized. Thanks for the thoughts and keep them coming
