Am I blind or what?

This is probably totally lame, but it was late and I was in a hurry. I was on a friends computer fixing up their new Zen install and I needed something I knew I had posted. So I go to the Zen Cart home page and look for the forums link. Nothing, zip, zilch. No link to the forums anywhere. I had never noticed this because I have a bookmark on my computer and had not had to click a link to get here since before the new look site.

Is there is a link to the forums that people can find easily? Did I totally miss it? If not, shouldn't there be one?

Well ... if you were to click Help ... then click Forum ... you'd get here ...

The direct link is one extra step in hopes that people also read the Tutorial/FAQs and wiki before running to the forum to post questions that have solutions readily available to them ...

It's not necessarily hidden ... just an extra click away to encourage folks to actual read up on the available help ...

See I am blind!

I actually did click on the help link, but I didn't look back at the top of the page. I ASSumed that the header links were static and I didn't see a link to the forums elsewhere on the page.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I was going to suggest that the link be changed from "help(?)" to "FAQ/forum". I'm not sure "help(?)" is obvious enough.

I agree. I have had numerous ocassions when I couldn't find the forum link, however Linda's point is a good one. I now know how to find the forums, but it took a few wanderings in the dark before I got it down pat.

Oh, I think the link should work exactly the way it does now. Tutorials/FAQ first with a link to the forum. I just think it would be clearer to everyone if the link on the home page said FAQ/forum instead of help(?).
