Toms Hardware New Format

[derekullo]

A few days ago Tom's switched to a new format for the home page.

Is there a way to get the old format back?

The current format has all the main categories, storage, graphics, virtual reality with the top news for each.

The old format had 20 or so of the latest news with an arrow to see up to 4 pages back.

it was a small rollout to about 10% of the users to gauge reaction. you can go back by using this url http://www.tomshardware.com/#v=current

this is the kind of feedback the site would like from users. can you post your opinion here so it can be included back to the developers. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-3069613/tom-hardware-front-page-beta.html

thanks

The URL goes back to the same new format.

sorry, it works for me.

new format is really not bad. just go to the forum hoe page to see the new threads if you want a bunch more. feedback is being used and they should be expanding the forum feed and putting back the 4 pages you used to get. just takes time to roll it out and then collect input and finally change things.

The URL for the "current" page is not working for me either (http://www.tomshardware.com/#v=current) just keeps taking me to the #v=beta page. Any way around this?

 

[Math Geek]

not that i have found. if the #current link does not work, then you are stuck with the beta page. it will eventually be permanent after another round of changes based on feedback. then on to the forum home page and finally the forum gets redone.

will be slow coming but in the end a lot of needed updates and changes will be made.

I log in and start looking around, after answering a few questions, I'm switched tot he new format., then I leave. Is there a way, once "switched" to get back to the functional "normal" front page.

did I get the new home page layout?

 

[Math Geek]

you should have since everyone switched over months ago. it was beta for a while but has been made permanent now.

post a scrfeenshot of the homepage if you're not sure and we can tell you easily
