    How do I find a complete list of forums on Beeradvocate? A search of “forums” does not appear to provide a complete list. For example someone suggested I check out “Home bar”and provided a link. Had the link not been provided I would never know it existed based on the items listed in the forum section. What other forums exist and how does one access them?

    You have to click twice on the Forums tab- one click brings up the 5 Forum options, the second click will bring up the many different forums.

    Just once on "Forums" will do the trick.

    I will clarify that I am on a PC, but I have to click twice on the Forums tab to get to the array of wonderfully informative forums. Not trying to argue, just calling it as I am seeing (clicking) it.

    An additional note: you won't see the trading forum topics unless you sign up to be a trader.

    On the desktop/PC site you have to click on Forum twice.

    That's weird. Hovering over "Forums" brings up the sub-nav, but it's one-click on "Forums" for me on Mac and across all browsers.

    I don't use the desktop site much and I don't remember hovering over Forums, just moving the mouse and clicking, it's always been two clicks from the home page. I'll try pausing & hovering next time I'm at my laptop.
    Firefox and Vivaldi on windows

    FWIW, I'm on a MacBook Pro/Safari and have to click twice.

    If you're on desktop, it's most likely one-click (on Forums in the main nav). But if you're on mobile, a laptop, or your browser size is small, you're going to get the condensed site nav and an extra step as a result ("Hamburger" Menu > Forums).

    I'm on my 17" Windows 10 laptop now.
    Tried it with Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Vivaldi; logged in, all ad blockers, script blockers, etc turned off, same thing on each of them. As far as I can remember it has always been this way. (apologize for wall of pics)

    What if you just click "Forums" without waiting for the hover? Or do you need to click to view the subnav items versus hovering?

    Hovering or straight to is the same, one click to bring up the sub, a second click to go to the forums page.
    Also tried it using just Tab & Enter (no mouse). First Enter brings up the submenu, second Enter takes me to the Forums home

    Interesting, on my 10 year old Gateway laptop running Win10 Pro, its one click to get to forums on Edge and Firefox.
