      Hey MNtundraRet

      This is a great idea and something we are actively working on adding. Stay tuned! 

  • I guess that was too big to see. ğŸ˜€    I normally zip by those large blocks. since they weren't anything, I was looking for in the past. And of course, the block worked and took me to the updates.

    You fooled me earlier.

      Hahaha, no worries at all! 

      Thank you both again! 

  • I have to shamefully admit I was with MNtundraRet on only finding the post way down on the page. And now that I see your post this is definitely one of those "If it was a snake it would have bit you" moments. I too scrolled right past the big "Community Update" button. 🙄

  • Right now, this post is 16 posts down the list after selecting "Good Sam. 

    Most people may not find it. I was looking for it.

      If you click on the Good Sam logo in the top left corner that should bring you back to the Community Homepage. Here you should see three featured posts. The Community Update should be one of those three. If not please let me know! 

      Thanks MNtundraRet 

       

  • Nice idea! I was just wondering if yuo could use a sticky to keep it at the top of the list? 

    🤔

      At the moment we cannot do a sticky but it is something we are working on. That being said, this post will live with the other featured posts at the top of the homepage! As we have more updates, that's where they can be found!
