    How do we access the Proms threads?

    I can’t seem to find the Proms threads. I looked in performance, but nothing.

    Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks

    If you click on 'Advanced Search' above right, select search 'thread titles only' in the first drop-down menu, and put 'Prom' in the box - you get a list of all the threads on individual concerts from the various years...

      don't know if this is the best way, but advance search "prom 2015" in thread titles should get you to the 2015 proms board.

      so if you know the year you want you are ok.

      Edit: The Mod police sorted it .

              Good job Cali was on the case - I was about to provide a link to the BBC Proms Archive!

                Please do; it would be useful.
                I've thought of making it a Safari favorite [sic].

                  It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                        Oh, that's a very good idea (I have the site Bookmarked on my computer). As soon as I find out how to do it, it'll be done ...

                            I'll have to think about this because at present each Proms year (2011-2016) is set up as a separate board so the sidebar would need a link for each year. I'll see if I can work out a way round that, so that one link will then display every board.

                            Of course, this would be to display our forum discussions - the BBC Proms archive would be more convenient to check what the individual concerts were.

                              I was thinking that the BBC Proms Archive might be a useful addition to the "Useful Links > Other Links" column - to enable Forumistas ready access to verify the last time a favourite composer was featured in the Proms, sort-of thing.
