FAQ contents


If I remember correctly, it seems the new FAQ has more default entries rather than previous ones that were specific to this forum. For example, it has a question about avatars (which don't exist here), but says nothing about the field below the username that says something like "Member" or "Senior member" (as I thought the old one did).

It's on the TODO to clean up FAQ entries - thanks for the reminder.

Hmm... the member/senior member/guru field? Or am I just not looking in the right place?

Ah yes, quite blind

Let's throw in one more suggestion then: I think it would be better to have the page with all the questions load when you click on FAQ rather than a table of contents with just three links. At this point, most of the FAQ questions fit on one screen (for me at least), and, since there isn't anything below the questions, clicking on either "General Forum Usage" or "Reading and Posting Messages" brings you somewhere to the middle of the page since it can't scroll down far enough to make that be the top of the screen.
