I just got a new forum title, went to apply it, and realized the Forum Options category was missing from the new User Dashboard. I can find it myself thanks to my history:
Forum Options for anyone looking
But there is no current link/easy way to access it from user options.
I do wish they would put the profile code box back in the options somewhere though, since a lot of people with custom layouts may not be able to change the coding from their actual profile page.
This so much. Some older profiles I've put together were impossible to edit from the profile page itself. Having a separate page where the code could be accessed was insanely useful, and I loved the larger box. There needs to be a place for updating code outside of user profile pages.
They were found through User Dashboard up until the recent update as well though.
Yeah. The profile page is also glitched.
- Well I guess now they're only going to be on the forums page. They've been updating and rearranging the dashboard for a few days now, seems like all they've done is make it worse though.
It seems okay-ish aside from them removing things that were always there.
Also if forums are going to get more categories of links at the top they should think about adding them to the drop menu too so you don't have to load the entire forum page just to access your subscriptions, forum options, recent pings/posts, etc.
- Well, another thing a lot of people didn't like was that they added the friend feed to it. Which already has its own page and a sidebar widget, so do we really need to have it on the dashboard too?
And yeah, it is kind of annoying to have to load the whole forum page, but having too many things on the drop down navigation could be a problem too.

I prefer the friend feed there personally. I got rid of my sidebar one because it was so messed up (maybe they've fixed it now though?).
And yeah, anytime I change my profile I have to clear it completely and redo the while thing. Which is fine if I remember how it is supposed to be organized haha.

Yeah, I'd REALLY like the profile changing box back, it made it a heck of a lot easier. :(
Is there any css to get rid of that huge space wasting friend feed bar? And more importantly is there an option to opt out of your activity showing up on it? If not, I'd really like it gone. I also miss being able to have all my options in one place. Profile and Forum options would be nice to have back on the user dashboard.
I don't mind the friend feed in the user prefs (only way I'd check it, really) but the forum options should definitely be re-added. It was easier to just go to my dashboard and find every site option there.
