I’ve been using BL for 5 years (as a buyer, not seller). I heavily use Want Lists
and now, it’s taking me 3 clicks (=,Profile,My Wanted Lists) to get to them and
that’s not efficient. It used to be right there in the top nav bar. Ugh, this
will not help me, at all. Way too much clicking. I hope admins take note and
change it soon.
I love BL DEARLY, but man….this is frustrating to the point I want to find another
method.

Yup. Whose great idea was this? Is there a way to keep the classic layout of
the past 20 years?

Longer depending on how many chances it takes you to get your mouse correctly
over the "All Topics" link before the "Community" menu switches
to the "BrickLink Designer Program" menu. 🙄
+1 on that. I truly do not understand why designers, when making a menu like
that, do not build in a slight delay, like even .5 of a second. Time enough to
get the cursor past, without triggering the selection it's now passing over.
Hover on "community" long enough (.5 second...) to get the menu down,
then if I happen to very briefly pass over "BDP" on the way down to "forum"
it wouldn't then change the dropdown. Seems so darn simple, yet I don't
think I've ever actually seen a site do this, and it bugs me to no end all
the freaking time.

Also while the dropdown is open it feels like you have to run the cursor too
much distance along the screen to get to required selection. The menu selections
need to be condensed so that most of what your trying to select appears almost
directly beneath the relevant menu in question

Interesting, yours is different from mine - I click to see the menu, then Community,
Forum Topics, All Topics, Discussion Forum, for 5.

For me the Menu is always visible and I just have to hover over one of the menus
for the dropdown to appear, click 'All Topics then click 'Discussion
Forum' so for me its one cursor hover and two clicks

They might be using an iPad, like I am. No hovering on an iPad since there’s
no mouse, lol. Just clicks/taps.

It's not specifically an iPad, but yeah it's a smaller screen (around
1200x800 inside the browser window)

" 'Website clicks' refer to the number of times a user clicks on
a link to your website. They are a good way to measure the interest and engagement
of your website's visitors."
a website is monetarily worth more if the web traffic increases.
the more you click, the more traffic you are creating.
seemingly making the website more... 'Popular' than other sites
creating more reasons to 'click' is a way to increase the perceived 'value'
of the website by creating more things to do in order for the user to accomplish
their goal.
Welllll, I’m not going to be clicking much on BL, so……there goes $ I guess 😆

Agreed, I hate this layout. The all-white menu background is painful. When
will Bricklink ever actually listen to the users and stop wrecking the site?
LEGO - are you listening???

Am I missing a step? The dropdown menu is greyed out and won't let me select
anything, leaving it on "Bright".
Ok, that's strange. Maybe it helps to log in again. But it's only a “half”
dark mode anyway. It just changes the background color to a dark blue. There
are no color changes to the actual page content. It is visually better than white,
but nothing more.
And yes... The menu navigation is not very well implemented.
Where is the “my activity” page, for example? Or the page with your own uploaded
pictures? It seems as if you can't find half of them if you haven't bookmarked
them before.

Agree 100%. I can't get to any of the helps I use every day ( like "
appears in" - still can't find it). I am very frustrated!!!!
