Help with AfterDawn.com v3
Do you find your self at lost with the new page layout? Don't worry -- it's
actually quite easy to get around the new site once you've orientated yourself.
You'll probably find soon that the new layout is actually much easier to navigate than
the previous one!
When it comes to the content of the site, nothing has been removed. It's all still
there -- we've just moved things around a bit. To get an overall view of the structure,
please see the AfterDawn.com page map.
Navigating the pages
Main menu tabs
 |
| Picture: Main menu tabs
|
The pages are navigated using the menu tabs found at the top of each page.
The pages are grouped under several main menu tabs, and all the main tabs are
visible on every single page at AfterDawn.com.
Sub menus
 |

Many pages also have sub menus on them. You can find links to pages related to the active
main menu tab in the sub menu space that is located under the main tabs.
The submenu items are always visible in the active tab context, so you can, for example,
access the list of updated threads from every page within the discussion forums.
Quick links
 |

On every page the Quick links dropdown menu is visible. Through the quick links
you can easily access the most popular locations at AfterDawn.com.
The contents of the quick links dropdown remains the same throughout the site.

The search box is now visible at all times. Just enter a search term and our search
engine will automatically search news, software, guides, glossary, and forums.
It's a true all-in-one solution!
Some areas, such as the forums, have also their own search engines that have
more adjustable options suited for searching within their own context.
Still lost?
If you still can't find the page you are looking for, please take a look
at the map of our page structure. And if
that doesn't help either, please send us feedback!
It is quite possible that we have forgotten to move a page to our new layout.
About the new layout
As crazy as it might sound, we have been working on the new site layout for
well over a year now. We've gone through numerous iterations of the layout,
and tweaked every little aspect of the site to make it as fast and accessible
as possible. We certainly hope you find the site easier to use, and maybe even
nicer to look at!
Enjoy your visit at AfterDawn.com!
