https://github.com/colouring-cities/colouring-london versus https://discuss.colouring.london/

[Toase-of-London]

I'm sure the menu option "Discussion Forum" on the Main Menu used to link to https://discuss.colouring.london/

It now (well at least on 17-Jul-23 and 18-Jul-23) it links to https://github.com/colouring-cities/colouring-london/discussions

https://discuss.colouring.london/ is a more domain knowledge discussion forum as opposed to a developer forum, and it is the one I wanted. I managed to reach it via the link available are clicking on the "Contact" menu item.

Was this a deliberate change? It seems to make the UI less user friendly.

Hi @Toase-of-London yes sorry for confusion we are doing this now so we have a technical and non technical link in the Menu - let us know if any problems once these are up

It was a deliberate change, as the programme has expanded we now have other Colouring Cities projects starting up. We decided to use GitHub for the discussions on the other "Colouring..." platforms, instead of having to create (and pay for hosting for) a separate Forum page for each of them.

However, for Colouring London, the link to the old Discussion Forum has been restored in the latest version, which is now deployed.
