The left panel on your website does not scroll. The bottom three selections I can see are “Classes”, “Lectures”, and “Simuls”, and below it another that looks like “U.S. Chess” something-or-other, but it’s mostly off the screen so I can’t read it. And are there any below that one?

Might be a browser setting. Might be a page issue. I can see down to caveman quest but doing a copy shows five more lines below that.

Sorry, I’ll look to see if there is something I can do on my end - I haven’t had any other comments like this. Are you using any of Chrome, Firefox, or Edge? I assume Bill, that this isn’t a mobile browser?
Chrome
I’ve worked to shrink the menu. Hopefully that will help until I can find a better correction.
The menu now appears to have expanded, rather than shrunk. It also seems to have been subdivided now. The problem is still the same, or worse. Can’t get to the bottom of it, and can’t scroll.
I still use Internet Explorer for most chess stuff, but I also tried it with Edge, and the problem is the same. I have a Dell desktop running Windows 10, not a smart phone or anything like that.
Isn’t there any way you could make the left panel scrollable, just as the right panel already is?

I am looking into it. This isn’t happening in my version of these browsers. On my browser the menu is greatly shrunk as several items were nested into a couple of folders that expand when clicked upon. So I am seeing a total of four menu items with two more in the secondary menu.
This is the menu I see in Internet Explorer on my computer. If I click on “Events and Calendar” - it expands.
That matches up with what I am seeing in Chrome

Perhaps, instead of inviting your viewers to go to https://www.cavemanchess.com/forum, you should just send them to https://www.cavemanchess.com/. That way, it comes out the way you are showing us. Doing it the original way causes the initial menu to pre-expand, and I don’t think it even pre-expands correctly (although I’m not sure).

Hi Bill. I double checked - the menu expands because that particular page is in the expanded menu. If you click the top line (you can tell because what is indented is “inside the drawer” - the drawer closes - and you get the shrunk menu.
I don’t see any “drawer”, but if I click on your main logo, it does indeed go “back” to the main menu.
I guess I’m still in the 20th century when it comes to icons and pictorial conventions. Words work better for me.
Bill Smythe
The “drawer handle” is the heading row right above the indented items. They are “inside the drawer.” If you click that heading row, the drawer should open and close.
I still don’t see any “drawer”, nor do I see any indentation, except much further down the page.
For those of us born in the 20th century, and not accustomed to seeing things that aren’t there, I really, really think it would be more clear if, instead of saying “go to https://www.cavemanchess.com/forum”, you would tell us “go to https://www.cavemanchess.com/, then click on Events & Calendar” (and then Travel Sharing & Forum, etc). Then your instructions would be more user-friendly.

Thanks for the feedback, Bill. For that particular link, the point is to get someone to the forum (on the right above) so that they can share travel arrangements. Since the forum is the main point, not the navigation, I think the forum link, taking a person right there, is best.
Above is a screenshot showing the indentation, the drawer, etc. The indent starts with the third menu item.
Well, the “drawer” must be in its receptacle upside down, then. Just look at all the indented items that spill out of it when you open it.

Enjoyed the humor.

So the US Open is now officially on. The mask policy is logical; they are required for all of the competitions but are NOT required for the delegates meeting because all delegates are eligible to have been vaccinated. It’s logical that this reasoning does NOT apply to the Senior Tournament of State Champions, since they have to play in the same room as the youngsters.
As I understand it that won’t be the case for this event. The Seniors and the Juniors are separated. Might that have any influence on the mask rules for the US Senior?
