Anonymous How to get General Discussions to show again? 9 Aug 31 2009, 2:34 PM EDT by EdwardEdgemenace

Hello,

Deleting all categories except "General Discussions", I expected that clicking the TOP-PAGE nav bar "Discussions" link might once again list the threads found within G.D., but alas, that's not the case. Any way to get that neat preview back, without making users click "All Threads" tab from the category menu?

Thanks in advance
