From the forum to the courses

I access to the forum from the main site on the app. But once I’m in the forum I don’t find the way back. Is there any way?

There’s no link from the forum but, if you have accessed the forum from the Help area in the app, you should be able to get back to the app by tapping on ‘back’.

Yes you’re right. The problem is when I read too many things in the forum, it’s annoying to go backwards. A link would be great. I hope the technical team behind Memrise is interested .
Thanks Alanh!

Yes, a link would be a helpful addition, if they can find a way to add one in a prominent place. It may not be that easy to do, though, because they use a commercially-provided forum from “Discourse” and the format is not owned by Memrise. Maybe it would be possible to add one in the “About” area.

@MemriseSupport - is it doable?

There’s a link to the forum on the bottom of the Memrise homepage:

But I agree, if would sure be very helpful to add a link to the Dashboard. Why not add a simple link to the right of Home/Discover/Groups? This might help users to discover that there is a forum - I bet most of all don’t even know about its existence (given how quiet it is here)!
@MemriseSupport, @James_g_memrise: it’s just a link, should be doable without much of a budget and it could help countless users. What do you guys think?

True, but it’s a link from the forum to the learning site(s) that’s needed.

The link in the Android app is hidden away in the “Help” area.

It’s not on the course listing screen. It’s at the bottom of the “Settings” screen.

This topic is in danger of becoming ‘derailed’ :upside_down_face: It was oruginally about a simple request to provide a link from the forum to the learning site(s).

I do think this is a very good suggestion. This forum could help a lot more people if it’s made more visible in the website!
