Strange behaviour.

[Arpangel]

Sometimes I only get two forums listed when I click on the main forums button, Feedback, and SOS Support.
There’s definitely erratic behaviour happening lately, and I think that the latest iOS on my pad may not be helping.

That sounds like you're clicking on the SOS forums link rather than the main forums or forum index link.

Sometimes I only get two forums listed when I click on the main forums button, Feedback, and SOS Support.

This is, I think, user error compounded by some less than helpful section labelling.

The individual topic SOS forums are grouped into three sections. The first section is only visible to admins and moderators, the second is titled MAIN FORUMS, and the last is titled SOS FORUMS.

This last one encompasses the FEEDBACK and SOS SUPPORT FORUM which are the two forums directly related to the published magazine and website.

The MAIN FORUMS group includes all the independent discussion forums like RECORDING: GEAR & TECHNIQUES, MIXING MASTERING & POST PRODUCTION, and so on, down to the MUSIC LOUNGE and USEFUL INFORMATION ARCHIVE.

So, I would think it likely that somehow you are diving in too deep and selecting the SOS feedback subgroup rather than the main forums.

There’s definitely erratic behaviour happening lately...

Possibly, but I think it's you being erratic rather than the website!

That said, it might be more helpful if we came up with a different name for the SOS feedback group and I'll discuss options with Ian next week.

Yes, I double checked that too, but if I select main forums, just occasionally I get the two SOS forums.
Who knows, it may be finger slip, but this latest iOS is a total balls-up on my iPad, that may be contributing.
