I've noticed that I can see new entries on "paul's pseudo blog" on the front page of the forums whenever I visit and am not logged-in. However, if I ever visit the front page after I'm logged-in to my Permies account, then blog entries are no longer visible and I need to manually search for them in order for them to appear. When I do this, they only appear in search results, not on the front page or anywhere else.

I've dug into my personalized settings and I can see nothing that would bar me from seeing them by default. I have no forums or threads marked as "do not show" or something like that in site personalization. It seems like there's some behind-the-scenes option that I disabled or whatever that's likely causing this

Anywhere else I might look to disable the concealment of these threads? Anyone else with this issue?

Please help if you can. Thanks!

Hey Stephen, have you checked your acorn ranking for that forum? It's a feature that is easy to miss.

If you go to the main forum page, there is a button to "Rate forums." If you click that, it will give a list of acorns under each forum. If you give a forum a rank of "0 Acorns" you will never see it or any of it's thread either on the main page or the category list.

Interesting! This solved the issue. Everything in the "Permaculture Artisans" list was marked as 0 acorns.

I wonder what else I've been missing because this somehow happened, and if it's elsewhere in the forums.

Thanks, Jeremy!!!
