Racetboy.com Navigation/Finding Content Issues

[cabrando]

I've noticed when browsing the site for guides/articles on certain topics that they exist, but you have to dig deep.

Here's an example:

I click "guides" under the racketboy logo, then select "gameboy" and am greeted with a message that says "nothing here yet". There is a Hidden Gems Gameboy Article though.

That's just the most recent one I've found. I will post more in this thread as I find them and suggest others do the same to help tidy up the site.

Then again if I'm just missing something let me know.

Another one,

Under guides the text is there for PS2, but it's not a link. There is a PS2 Hidden Gems Article

there's definitely some glitches. I never use GUIDES though. I use TOPICS.

For instance, hit TOPICS/GAMEBOY (which should Technically be GAME BOY, ahem) and you'll actually encounter a lot more hits for instance.

Rarest and Most Valuable Gameboy & GBC Games not under Gameboy guides.

Yeah, I've noticed the same thing. No exact examples ever come to mind, but I've noticed a few of them.

If you select "Guides" then "Nintendo Gameboy Advance" it goes directly to the Hidden Gems Article, here's another guide for the GBA Cheapest GBA Games Worth Your Time

like I said, use TOPICS rather than GUIDES. Brings up a lot more.

I know, just trying to help tidy the site up. What's the point of having guides section if it's (somewhat) unusable.

Yeah, I think the site could use a bit of a redesign to make some of the content easier to find. There is a huge wealth of information here, and some really great articles that deserve to be read!

Not bashing the site by any means, I love this place! Just a bit of constructive criticism.

Thanks for the heads-up on the broken links _- I'll try to get those fixed soon.
As for the larger design/navigation issues, SpaceBooger and I are actually working on a full site redesign. We've been using the same design essentially for 4 or 5 years now and it's really showing its age. Hoping to modernize and make it fit the content better.
Stay tuned!
