Forum changes consider this!

[used red MN]

I will just say this to the naysayers about the changes. The main topic of our discussion is “tractors” Tractors have definitely been changed and updated over time. A 1940 tractor has many improvements over a 1900-1910 tractor? Same for the 1940 model to a 1960 model. And obviously a 2023 model compared to a 1960 is a larger change yet. Through all this the farmers/operators learned how to adapt to utilize the new features. In my opinion the same applies here. Please do not immediately turn your nose up and see a road block. Take your time ask questions and observe, we will all move forward together and continue to enjoy what the members as a whole along with the support folks have made this forum, A PLACE TO ENJOY A COMMON INTEREST!!!

I think I am following the new changes ok, I haven't figured out how to post a message yet. Do we still have Photo Adds and Classifieds? How do I get there.

There's a drop down menu at the top of the page that says "Marketplace". Click that for those options.

Just a FYI....
The screens we see depends on the device being used, i.e. Phone, tablet, laptop, desktop, etc.
My fire tablet does not present this site the same as say J. Hamilton's example shows.
I and maybe you don't have those three lines in upper left, you, like me might have to click the arrow next to the words shown under the YT logo to go to the other pages on this site like Marketplace.

That's all fine and dandy, but you don't take an Amish fella out from behind a horse and put him in a new tractor filled with electronics and expect him to run it like an expert just because he's been watching it across the fence row for a day. Guys who are tired of all the questions and problems need to remember who they're on here with and take a chill pill until we get the hang of this stuff. That said, I'm never gonna "like" not being able to see the thread like we could in Classic, but I guess that's my cross to bear.

Glad you pointed that out, I wasn't thinking about it showing up differently on different devices. I also should have mentioned that I am using a mobile phone.

On the other hand, the nay sayers most likely frequent other interweb sites than this one. And these sites most likely aren't as antiquated as this one was. Every other site they visit has it's own quirks which have to be learned to use them. And they will either learn how to use this new site, or keep complaining and leave.

 

[Brown David]

Y'all had to learn how to use a computer or phone in order to use the previous version here didn't you?

Why would learning how to navigate this new format be any different? Take your time and experiment, you'll get it.

Your point is exactly why I still farm with tractors from the 50’s.

Mine is set up similar. Looks good from the phone. Now, back to a screen that isn't 3x6.

Nice try Rick.
Oh well, I have mostly moved on from tractors anyway...

When I open YT the same screen shot comes up with photo ads and classifieds, right where they have always been. I must scroll to the bottom of that page to click forums to go to the forums as they are today. Is'nt that what everyone sees when they click on the yt icon????

This is what I see. This is on a mobile phone. I may have something set differently than you

Where is this "YT icon" you're clicking on?

It is likely a shortcut that you created, or was created for you. It points to the main page of the website, which is still as it always has been.

You would need to modify that shortcut or create a new one that goes directly to the forums, but that will depend on what you have.

No need to scroll to the bottom. Right below the section on the left with photo ads and classifieds is a section called "Community." The first link there is Discussion Forums, which brings you to the forum.
