Top left logo returns to hub when logged in, not home page #87

Open ghost opened 10 years ago

If you're logged into the site, clicking on the main WDS logo in the upper left corner should return to the home page, but instead it goes to the hub, which means I don't have any way of navigating back to the home page, save for typing it in manually.

Hm - this is on purpose since the hub is generally speaking the "home" page full of relevant information for a logged in user. Just like how twitter/facebook/etc. take you to your feed, not the site home, when you click the logo.

On the one hand, it does seem like there should be an easy way to get back to the home-page, since it's nice to look at.

On the other hand, I think its important that the logo goes to the the most relevant content for the user which would be their hub once they're logged in.

Do you think the only solution is always linking the logo back to the home page?

It’s a fair argument.

As it is, if you’re logged in, you already have a dedicated Hub link below the countdown clock, and post-event, I feel like less people are interested in the Hub and more interested in the social waterfall on the home page. There’s also no way to log out expressly, so I would still think that the standard logo—>homepage navigation would be best in this case. Unless you added a Home button in the top nav. --  Isaac B Watson Man of Many Hats @ibwatson 503.944.9271
