Woo Hoo!!! It worked using the latest version of Firefox. If you're still having trouble and want to use the old format of the forums, HIGHLIGHT THE FOLLOWING ADDRESS AND RIGHT CLICK AND COPY (do not click on the address to open) http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums   into your browser internet address line. It will take you to the directory of Gardenweb forums. Then, you can click on the Florida Gardening forum. It will open in the old format. ps- sorry if someone else already recommended this :)

Hey Ingrid. I actually like the new Houzz format and it’s working really well for me. Let me see if I can help a bit with a few things I noticed. I think what you’re describing about the jumbled topics is that you are seeing a list of topics that are listed in order of recent posts. You only see that if you click on a certain thing... maybe “Garden Topics” or something like that? I also noticed that if you go to the main menu, then “Advice” and “Gardenweb Discussions” you can see all the recent discussions on any topics you follow. I like that! For instance, I follow... ...Since that’s what I’m interested in. It’s nice to see posts all in one place from all the forums I’m interested in. It is marked next to the title to show the forum the post is from and the person who posted it. I like being able to quickly see what forum it is about and what type of post it is. I haven’t used the mobile app yet through, so I don’t know if that is different. I use my iPhone or iPad, but just get to it from the internet browser (safari) instead of using the mobile app. This is what it looks like for me when I go to the page where all my interests show... You can edit the topics you’re following, and that will personalize what shows up for you. So if you want to follow only Antique Roses, just check that one topic only. If you want to see posts from others, check those too. I grow lots of different things together, so I like that I can post to Antique Roses, Roses and Organic Roses all at once if I want. It can bring people together that may otherwise have just stayed at one forum. Or I can post to California Gardening, Antique Roses and Roses, etc. Their comments can be seen at all, again bringing people together. Before, if I wanted to do that I would have to post separately in each topic and that wasn’t as community friendly, so I usually just didn’t. I picked one place and posted it there, so if people didn’t check there they would miss out. This way lots of different people can see or learn. It is a changed format, but I like it. I have had no problem posting photos, searching, editing comments, etc. I can totally understand how that’s frustrating, I just haven’t experienced it. For me, when I load photos they show up with muted colors now until they’re fully loaded (they used to show up as a spinning green wheel). It seems to take about the same amount of time to load photos as before for me. It may be faster to load them in subsequent posts instead of the original post though. As long as I wait until they’re no longer muted color (meaning fully loaded), I haven’t had any problem posting them. I hope this helps people! I enjoy all of your photos and comments so much!

I believe that some of you don't understand what's been going on with the initial posts. It's not that we couldn't figure out where to post, but that the words become gibberish....which cannot be corrected! Backspacing only multiplies the gobbledygook. It only occurs during that initial post. This issue has been resolved for me as of today so I encourage others to try again.

?? What is the difference in this: "Went throught houzz.com " add this? "nothing worked until I went in through google chrome." Chrome is a browser. You can get to Google, via any browser. Going to Google and searching for houzz.com will get you to the same place as typing in www.houzz.com in your address bar. Can you clarify what you meant? Did you perhaps use a link from your history and that is what you mean by the first statement?
