Since the new group 'Trados Portfolio' has been created, we find the 'Trados Studio' forum in two places:
This is confusing, especially in terms of the email notifications we receive because they have a different subject depending on how the person who wrote the post accessed the forum, see here:
I suggest this gets streamlined so that there is only one path to this forum.

I think you'll find that Trados Studio is a subgroup of the Trados Portfolio. If you look in the navigation menu you'll see this:
And if you click on the Trados Portfolio you should find it's similarly clear. How did you get to that screenshot... in your "My Groups"? Even if you clicked on the Trados Portfolio you will not find a forum for Trados Studio in there. The description just explains what the Trados Portfolio is.

Hi Paul
There are two ways to get there and once it is a sub-group as you say
and the other time it is suddenly called a 'forum':
The second screenshot I posted earlier is from my Outlook where, as you can see, posts from 'Trados Studio' have a different subject depending on how the person who posted navigated to the forum/sub-group. This is in my eyes confusing and makes it more difficult to filter incoming mails using rules in Outlook.
Groups and Subgroups (which are still Groups) can contain forums, wikis, blogs etc.
So in your second screenshot you have opened the Trados Studio Subgroup and in there it contains forums for:
So it hasn't suddenly been called a forum, it is a forum whereas it wasn't before and you are looking at two different things. We organised the Trados Studio Group to contain forums for the things people ask questions about when working with Trados Studio. Obviously one of the things they will ask about is Trados Studio so we have to have a forum for this, but we separated out things that came up so often when using Trados Studio they deserved their own forum.
I hope that explains it for you?
