If I make a suggestion for improvement, will it appear on the first page for those who have ticked this forum to appear there?

It seems like it does. Jun 23

At least for a while initially.

Maybe it depends on what suggestion one wishes to make.

Thanks.

For a long while, it seemed that this and the Bugs forum were mostly hidden from view. You never know what to expect here.

I asked a similar Q in the Bugs forum, Jun 25

I asked a similar Q regarding the Bugs forum just now, and guess what? It did not appear on my homepage (I waited 10 mins).

What's going on? So many bugs?

------------
Still invisible an hour later.

Maybe at ProZ they think that bugs are not of that relevance to appear on the homepage, being of technical nature?
They are still in the forum posts list.

Some things have never appeared where you'd expect them Jun 25

Poll discussions have never appeared on my home page. I've always had to click through to "recent forum posts". No idea why.

homepage and dashboard Jun 25

I never use the homepage, but I always have 3 tabs open - Forums, KudoZ and Jobs - (and many other tabs), but when I go to the homepage, the polls are on the right-hand side of the screen (old design).
Polls are also on the dashboard, which I don't use either: https://www.proz.com/member-dashboard
Oh, and then there are these settings for the homepage (replace "xxx" with your profile ID): https://www.proz.com/translator/xxx?sp_mode=settings&sp_submode=general_settings
(A good example of double and triple features on the site)

Thanks. I could leave tabs open I suppose, but I'm a no-tabs-left-open kinda guy (with a pretty ancient PC). Dashboard is ugly and full of nonsense stuff. Poll discussions are checked in my settings, but they've never shown up despite this. I rarely lose sleep over it though.

But if you tick the box to have it on your homepage, it still doesn't appear!? Jun 26

Maybe there are so many bugs that it's in the site's interest to make reports hard to find? That's not very user-friendly. And who benefits from it?

I am a persistent bug reporter myself, but I can't think of many business sites that have bug threads on the homepage - would I want to have them on the homepage of my own website?
What ... bugs me more is that reports seem to be ignored.

Hello everyone,

All forums can be listed on the homepage, that depends on the preferences users set at https://www.proz.com/dashboard/forum/?sp_forum_mode=homepage_forums

Thank you for your participation --including bug reports!-- but since I don't see any specific suggestion for improvement in this thread (this is the ProZ.com suggestions forums), I will lock the thread now to prevent it from drifting to less productive waters.

Have a good one.
