What's occupying that real estate underneath the banner? Knowledge Base. Do any of the links in that section work? No. So yes the navigation bar and the search bar on the far right are fully functioning (I really like the nav bar). But look at the site design from the perspective of a first time user of your site and not of someone who has spent many hours of time adding content and editing pages.
I generally agree. First one is part of major site overhaul which is problematic, but ideally we will be consolidating the wordpress and forum areas and have an easier way into each wiki. We recognize this, but don't quite have the coding volunteers right now to get this merged and done in a way that doesn't break what we have. But we have been and will continue to look into this. As for main page, I have been wanting to revise and simplify, but just haven't gotten around to it. We are still limited by mediawiki, but I think we can go for a more streamlined "google" search with maybe some drop downs to simplify. That said, those knowledge base links do work and can be helpful to get started too. So maybe some tabs could work. I'll see what I can throw together.
