I thought of this since I just spent 5 minutes looking.  I now know the FAQ link is at the bottom of the page.  I'll also forget that by the next time I need it.  For most pages on the site, the bottom is below my scroll line.  Can't the FAQ link or even most the misc stuff on the bottom have be in or have their own menu tab at the top?  Just a thought.

An eminently sensible one, I would say. (It's on the wishlist.) ...

 

The green command toolbar on chess.com that appears at the top of every page

is fantastic for providing access (via dropdown menus) to virtually all of the site's facilities.

The links at the bottom of every page, however, are virtually invisible.

Very few people are aware of them until they are pointed out by someone else. There is seldom a need to scroll to the bottom of the screen. Would it be a good idea to provide a copy of these bottom-of-page links as a dropdown menu to a new command toolbar item EXTRAS at the TOP of every page - alongside PLAY LEARN READ etc. ?
