How do people use this site... the menus are totally unusable.
Suppose you are on this page
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/home?category=sharepoint
And you want to go inside "SharePoint 2010 - Search"
Common sense would say that click on SharePoint 2010 - search and you will go inside the forum. But it turns out that here... I must unselect the other 14 forums in order to go inside Search.
Isn't this completely nonsensical??
Am I doing something wrong?
One thing that is not completely obvious is that the "grey box" is a search box (you can type in it). So currently the fastest way to do what you want might be to clear the list and then enter your desired forum.
(One thing I have noticed about this search is that it requires an exact match, not an AND or OR of the words).
Wyck's suggestion of making the forum names into links is a good one though.
But for me the best way to use the forums is to create links for the forums (or combinations of forums) that interest you, and save them as browser favorites/bookmarks. That way you only have to mess with the forum selection once for each combination, so
it doesn't really matter how clunky it is.
