You can reach the Home Page from any RootsChat page by clicking on the Home-Page icon:
or by clicking on the top-most item of the navigation "tree":
RootsChat Main Boards:
You can choose to "collapse" or "expand" boards, by clicking on the board name. For instance, if your main interests are in England and Wales, and you never visit the Ireland or Scotland boards, then you can "collapse" them. This has the advantage of hiding details which don't interest you, and the page will load faster in your browser.
Following the list of boards, you can see the last 5 topics posted, with board name, topic name, poster and time of posting.
Users Online is a list of the members online, who have been active in the last 30 minutes.
