    Hi folks, don't know if this is the correct place - not liking this 'new look' boards, but does anyone know where the private forum has gone to?

    Lots of comments on the new look...but just give them a change to sort it. But yes the sub forums are currently gone for everyone.

    Also worth watching the help & feedback for updates

    Try this: https://boards.ie/group/1836-online-teaching-resources

    Because the subforum was private on the old site it's now a "Group" rather than a forum as Vanilla does not support access restricted or private forums.

    Just saw this hop up on the homepage under the new threads. I think the old Private or Restricted Forums have now become groups, it's probably easier to manage user access that way. If you go to https://boards.ie/groups do you see what you would have previously had access to?

    This, not happy with the site at all, can’t find anything I usually follow, hopefully all will return to normal soon !!

    A bit relieved to read this, I thought it was just me doing something fairly stupid.

    I can't find anything either. No handy drop down list that you could scroll over and get to things fast. They're doing a great job of killing the site.

    If you go into the quick links section at the bottom of the screen and click on bookmarks you can see discussions in there that you have contributed to. You can reach the forum from there.


    spoiler alert, there are no new posts lol

    Actually there’s a link for groups down there too which brings you straight in.

    Have some of our threads not followed over either.


    I've seen one I started simply say 'failed to load' instead.
