On the forum home page under the heading of Colleges and Universities
In the spot where you usually see the most recent thread? It says "How much does adderal help? " and it has said that for a YEAR
I would love to see the most recent thread under that section again. Or is there something I don’t understand?
Thanks
This is actually the result of confusion within the software. Colleges and Universities is only a container of sub-forums, and does not actually hold any threads itself. However, instead of just not putting anything there the software has selected a thread from a completely different forum (College Life, in this case). Notice the Ivy League forum heading on the home page as well. Same story, as it contains a “latest thread” that also doesn’t change (which comes from the Internship and Careers forum).
Asking @CCadmin_Sorin if there are any updates on fixes for this. Thanks!
@Lenitus, will raise the issue to the rest of the admin team. We’ll keep you posted if there are any updates. Thanks!
Thanks
@veruca, I just posted a thread about the issue of rotating topics on home page about two minutes ago, and then I saw this. I mentioned the Adderall, too. I had no idea it’s been a year. As I noted on the other thread, there would be more robust convos if they could get more ongoing variety up there.
I agree @lindyk8 that it would spark more discussion if you could see what is going on a bit more.
Good morning…as I alluded to a few posts ago, there are a few forums that don’t actually house threads (but rather are just containers for other forums). I counted three of them, and only those three are showing the same threads for months and months now (again, due to a software glitch, since a user can not post a new thread in these forums: College and Universities, Ivy League, and also the Pre-Med forum). When you mention wanting to see what is going on a bit more, are you just referring to those three instances being corrected…or something else? The Featured Discussions are updated about 3-4 times per week typically and rotate through the last 8.
I used to have the page I wanted bookmarked on my phone and ipad, so overshot the home page. Since installing the app, I now start at home page. All I know is they really really really need to rotate:
FEATURED:
Eating disorder thread up since FEB 1.
Fake diploma up since FEB 10
REGULAR:
Why don’t more universities offer undergrad biz diplomas - up since FEB 4
Adderall up since FEB 12
If you were an employer up since FEB 14
Does college major = IQ up since FEB 15 (even though just 6 responses)
Why do colleges rescind acceptances up since April 2010.
You have to realize a lot of people come up here several times a day. I have heard of ppl who consider CC their FB. Imagine coming up 4-10x a day, or even once a day, on FB and the newsfeed never changes.
Imagine going to huffpost and the newsfeed is essentially the same for one week, let alone for two weeks.
I’m assuming a huge number of interactions on CC are from regulars, so not changing threads daily is a huge limitation to posting.
If a person comes up here 5x a day, in one week they have looked at essentially the same home page posts 35 times. Two weeks = 70 views of the same posts.
I really don’t care one way or the other. It would just be nicer for the regular user, and I think more productive for CC in general, to rotate daily.
Adderal is up since Feb 12 of last year. I don’t want to overstate it -basically I just find in kind of irritating. I come here everyday to check the forums -so if something is up for a year I notice. I would like to see what the “Hot” discussions are on the individual college forums but mostly I just don’t like seeing an unanswered thread sitting there on the discussion home page for a year. I know doesn’t hurt anything. It is just the cyber equivalent of driving by a broken street sign for a year and wondering why it isn’t fixed. 
Thanks :
I would also add gunman kills 3 is still on featured. Thread started FEB 11, last post FEB 16. Old old news. Just say in’ more assortment would help. :(((
