After helping out in the WordPress Support Forum for about a year now one thing has become painfully clear and that is the refusal of many people to use the damn search function. Many of the questions asked are the same ones over and over and have been answered as many times. What is so hard about it? I don't understand. Although I like the new look of the forum I think more importance (read emphasis) should have been given to the placement of the search form, particularly on the "View all Topics" page. As it is now it's rather obscure hiding up in the dark header. With that in mind I have created a mock-up of how I think the page should have been formatted. Below are two images,
- before - the way it currently appears (click to enlarge)
- after - how I think it should look (click to enlarge)
End of rant.
