I usually go on the spoilers and news bit to see when the next ep of Corrie or EE is on but since the site look was updated it's confusing to see all the eps that have aired and yet to air and because of that, I watched yesterday's eps of Corrie without realising there was an ep of Corrie before that on the thursday. Has this happened to any of you guys? :/

I spent half a day looking for the Coronation Street Spoilers and found it under

http://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/coro...at-the-rovers/

Gives a lot of spoilers in order. I've book marked it and will bookmark the last page when I get to it so I can carry on from there.

There's another way :

http://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/spoilers/

where you can choose your soap, but that only gives a couple of days of spoilers and is a random muddle of spoilers and episodes already aired.

I find the search function on this forum doesn't work either. I search for posts and it gives me ones from years back.

I only made this about this because it was mainly about the soaps if that helps explain it.

It is such an absolute, unmittigated distaster. I have seen several changes in my time on here and this is by far the worst. It has actually damaged the DS brand. Frustratingly, they knew there was a chance it wasn't going to work, hence the prolonged 'beta' trial, yet they did it anyway. What can they hope to achieve in the long run with this downgrade?

And many people still can't start threads or start a new private message conversation because the title bar won't allow a lot of people to type into it! I'm patiently waiting for word on when this will be sorted -frustrating and bad for the forums.

Typing the title in word/notepad and copying and pasting it in works. I don't know if that's what the OP did. Maybe the bug only affects certain browsers.

someone in advice said there is a drop down box so you can choose a title.

might not have anything to do with your thread but will enable a thread to be posted.

maybe they did it on purpose with not everyone been affected ever thought of that

doesnt impress me the sunday spoilers are under corrie stories

the soap news page is a mess

Question: Why are people looking for spoilers? Don't they want to see what happens as the story lines unravel?

To me it's like reading the last page of a book to 'see what happens' before you've actually read it! Now that's what I'd call a spoiler!

Even if I didn't want to look at spoilers, there's always the chance I'd see them by accident on site like Daily Mail or any other site when they included an article with "SPOILER AERT" with the revealing info beside that in the article title which I think is kind of dumb.

I find myself visiting the main site much less now. It's like the page just doesn't update stories as fast anymore, the same articles stick around on the top for what seems like days.

How much better was it when DS looked like it did here...

That's what I'm finding confusing. Can't find them either.
