Hi all
There are a number of challenge threads every year. Up till now, we've always posted the previous year's challenge thread as a 'sticky' at the top of the page. However, as a forum member noted, it does fill up the page quite a bit. So, what do you want to happen to challenge threads from previous years? Should they be stickied? And how many? Just the previous year's?
Do let us have your ideas and comments.
Best wishes

Hey D,
Forum members tried to "sweep up" the stickers so you went on and put another one up!! 😀
Joking...if I remember rightly, all of the authors of the previous challenge threads did request you to put those threads as stickers. Maybe to show newcomers/ egsisting members how supportive and achievable it all can be. I do agree that it's not exactly needed/ practical to pin every year's challenge on top of the section...but as you suggested, maybe last year's complete one wouldn't go a miss just to show how successful it actually can be?
Just my opinion. Many challenges took place & is still ongoing on GC pages, I do believe they help people to keep a resolve and strength going knowing that they're fighting this addiction in numbers..
Take care

Could you not put a sticky thread called challenges and put a link to each one in the post? That way you would have 4/5 threads in one sticky?
Thanks everyone for the feedback. Some great ideas there.

Yes I think the challenges should have a special section with maybe a structure of a 2018 challenge starting at regular intervals January and so on. Perhaps there could be a gamcare challenge or regular named challenges that people can join...so say there would always be one of a certain name starting soon so people can get involved from the start.
Everyone could have their challenge listed in this section so people can easily refer to the challenge they are in. This could be a name or keyword which related to that group. These can then be stickied in some way or moved out of the main header area when completed
I just think at present that the challenges get numerous and need their own section. Then its easier to focus on and navigate the topics in other sections.
Just my thoughts on the matter
All the best
