It’s taken a lot more work than I expected, but I’m most of the way there now. I’m just hoping all the simplifying will improve navigation and make the forum more appealing to new visitors.
Just for the record: Instead of deleting the “Ladies Only” forum, I’ve moved it into the “Community & News” category. We’re now down to 3 categories and just 10 forums. I hope that makes it easier to find stuff and general looks a little less daunting to new visitors.
