    Hi all! I'm excite to share that I have started a project to impove website navigation, and hopefully a few other improvements such as updating the "dashboard" page. The current drop-down menu may stay the same for some time, but I'll be adding a page (as well as adding it to the homepage) ...that has clickable links and more of a "bird's eye view" of what we have to offer. This is still a work in progress, as I still need to add hyperlinks (and perhaps some color) and maybe change to three across instead of four.

    Hoping to have this up sometime this weekend! :)

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com

What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:

  • First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
  • Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
  • Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
