Most links in the menu don't work: Click on forums, then programming, the website is searching for a page, but doesn't change anything.

What browser/OS?  All menu items work for me, so it may be your end. There was also a recent server restart, so you might just have had bad timing.

It is sorted. It's just arranged differently than it was before.  I'm sure once we're all used to the new hierarchy, it won't matter any more.

Yes, the reputation system has changed.

I'm with Firefox ESR 52.2.0 (32 bits) on Windows 10 PRO.

Just checked again and still have the issue.

I also now have another weird issue (only looking). The programming sub-menu is now lying far from its parent Forums menu :)

Just noticed the FAQ sidebar boxes are gone when someone asked a question covered in the former FAQ links.

Hopefully they still exist somewhere.

To see all forums, we are obliged to click on Forums, then all forums. I guess it would have been best just to click on the main Forums menu just like for Blogs for example.

You shouldn't need to click. They should dropdown on hover. The only click should be the item you want.

As @LennyLen mentioned it has indeed changed and will be recalculated sometime in the near future. I recommend reading the Staff Blog post mentioned in the Announcement at the top of the page for more information.

There's a few spots where the order of things will probably be massaged a little more. In some cases forums were merged or dropped.

Even when I don't have any ad blockers, I can see at the bottom of some pages a warning about me using blockers.

Try not to get too used to the current setup. Small changes here and there are likely. :)

This was fixed after your post, so you shouldn't see it now.

Some reply number might be wrong.

This is a known problem, and something happened in the conversion. We think it happened because the cache didn't clear. We're considering it low priority relative to other issues, but we'll run a script in the near future to correct this.

Hey there!
Big update!
I am probably the only one - but I can't find a search/find in the forums anymore ? What am I missing ? (Using Chrome)

Activity menu has several options for search. Activity -> Search as well as the new Activity Streams. You can set filters and save them for your own use.

Using the navigation bar at the top: Activity --> Search.

It is supposed to be upgraded/improved somewhat later on -- there's a comment from khawk about it here: 

Edit: Woops, didn't notice there was another page of replies.

Hello to all my stalkers.

It's under the Activity menu.

Edit: replied way too late.

Thank you guys!
You are super kind everyone :)

I can no more pay my GDNet+ Membership due to server errors. I've tried with PayPal and even with credit card, but I get always the same server error result at the end. Please fix it.
