I have tried to give Wazua administrators the benefit of doubt but now am giving up. The decision to put the various topic areas on different pages is the worst mistake in the new format. Its so cumbersome to go to different pages to look for topics such as 'pennywise' and 'politics' for example. I want to be able to glance at the various topics in one go instead of jumping from page to page. This was the winning format in the old site as it enabled one to quickly contribute to various topic areas and thus keep connected to other Skerians. Right now I feel so disconnected from the likes of Leona, Njung'e, Wendz and all the other lovely Skerians!

Dear Mpenzi,

Thank you for your positive criticism. Wazua contains 25 sections as opposed to 4 on SK, so it's natural to feel lost initially. Please realise we also mentioned the main challenge we're having in another post


To have an overview of all posts, there are 4 quick ways:
1. On home page, look at Top Threads centre column and work with Selected Posts | All Posts to see latest posts from other members, in one place.

2. On home page at same point, clicking on Active Topics to show you latest posts from entire community since you last logged in, in one place.

3. On home page at same point, click on Main Board to show you entire forum and the latest post in each section. Scroll to the bottom and you'll see Active Discussions, Latest Posts and Active Users

Click on any active user and you can see the last 10 posts they made.


4. We've noticed most of your posts are in Club SK. To see all latest post in Club SK, simply go to clubsk.wazua.co.ke When reading any post, Latest Discussions on the top left hand side show latest Club SK discussions at any time, in one place.


Hope our notes are clear, if not please ask for more assistance. Thank you for being a part of Wazua.

i raised the issue about links and bookmarks saved from stockskenya.com.

i have links and google and i have bookmarks on my PC from old topics. now all those are broken.

is there a way wazua can resolve SK links and bookmarks to Wazua?

@ Wendz,

Karibu sana, kweli hii holiday bug is causing major problems.

2 weeks to log in, maajabu haya!! :)

Dear Members,

Thank you for being a part of Wazua.
@alma, please read A rose by any other name... to understand why we very reluctantly changed to another name.

@subzero, please send all your bookmarks to support@wazua.co.ke We'll redirect them for you to the new posts under Wazua and send them right back

@TheGeneral, we appreciate your feedback. Key difference [positive or otherwise] from SK is obviously that we've 5 different communities. When in one community you'll realise:
--on community page, top community specific threads are shown on the page
--similarly top threads will always be shown on Services & Tools | Forums | Resources at bottom left of the page
--when reading any post, latest community specific discussions are permanently shown as Latest Discussions on top left hand side

Coming from SK, there's a desire to always know what's happening everywhere. [Read reply to Mpenzi to see how to do this]

Realise though when we launch market-wide, we are targeting x10 number of users in specific distinct groups - Investors, Groups, SME, Market etc. Each of the people will be primarily focussed on one community and occasionally venture elsewhere. Thus the reason why Wazua ensures different community threads are separate; much like a newspaper where you have to flip pages to read local / international / sports news.

@ General

Check on this page (any page) BOTTOM RIGHT there is FORUM JUMP where you can jump to wherever you would like.

Does that help you?

@ Wauza
I think Club Sk is a place to hide Skerians, sivyo?, otherwise why don't Club Sk post appear on the home page? ama we shall embarrass you with our topics like "territory marking" eh?, we would love to see the Club SK topics on the main page as we log in sawa wauza?

Ok, lets try this another day.

@muchknow..hmmm.. Am also interested what this new 'market wide' wazuans will b discussing

@ The General

Am with you on this - it is so frustrating having to keep clicking and waiting for pages to load. I dont buy Wazua's explanation that the threads are too many to be managed from a single page. I think Wazua's main interest in this regard to ensure there as much space as possible on the home page for their advertisers.
