Before the site was modified I remember seeing a stream of questions, but now there just seems to be a few. What has happened to all the posts please?

I believe the reason is that many have found it very difficult to get used too and are a bit 'lost' initially and give up

The original site was very easy and Healthunlocked came upon difficulties when first launched that it has taken a while to try to eradicate them.

Some members have, it would appear, not received email alerts about questions/answers so may not be aware the site is up and activated.

We hope they return as many are good at helping others with answers or advice.

Yes it seems odd now ! not many seem to have returned......

Yes Margo I agree. When browsing I find someone has posted something days ago and I knew nothing about it. The emails only cover a few on all my communities. I feel I am missing out on all of them.

I find the personal messaging bit the worse - cannot find ones I have sent without difficulty ! Must use the Green Feedback Button and have a moan !

I'm a newcomer to this site but am finding it horribly difficult to navigate. I

'm used to forums where there are subforums divided into topics like (on a dog forum) 'Behaviour', 'Health & Wellbeing', 'Training' etc. It gives you a nice easy way to search for topics about what you need.

Here, I put 'endo' into the search box, not knowing what it meant, and got ZERO results! And yet so many of the posts have the word in the title. I know now, BTW, it's 'endocrinologist'.

Hi Judy

Welcome! We are sorry that you are having problems.

The search function is high on the Tech Team list of 'sooner rather than later' things to do...

In the meantime - the categories that you can see on the right hand side of the screen work somewhat like topics on a traditional forum..
