Add a link that takes you to the homepage of roblox

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to return to the roblox homepage, I have to use my Stream Deck or type in “roblox” at the URL bar, and I want quick access to the roblox homepage so I can save thousands of time going to roblox and checking my group

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my experience using the forum because I can easily get into the roblox homepage without having to type “roblox” in the URL bar nor using the Stream Deck

Shouldn’t they add a link or button to the Roblox website to access the DevForum faster aswell?

The forum is accessible via create.roblox.com. Roblox needs to tie all these domains together, this is getting a little ridiculous. The creator dashboard, talent hub, forum, documentation, etc. all feel super disparate and inconvenient to access.

Would be cool to have some quicklinks in the hamburger menu in the top right, or at least put a link on the Roblox logo in the footer.

It would make more sense if they were like roblox.com/DevForum etc.
It’s really getting ridicolous, I don’t understand it

The forum must be on a separate sub-domain or it would not work.

Make sense, but the rest could be easily under roblox.com

Roblox doesn’t want too much things in the URL so they make seperate subdomains, (mainly for the Roblox API)

DarkPixlz want roblox to have the Discourse Sidebar here, and with that, I will be able to easily make a link to the roblox homepage :slight_smile:

Let’s wait for roblox to add this feature!

bumping this since this still matters, but now I’m using DevForum PWA so it’s less of an issue but I can agree with PeZsmistic in this case

Thanks for bumping the thread. This is something we want to do (better cross-site navigation from devforum) but haven’t been able to prioritize it yet due to the complexity involved with adding the navigation on forum side.

It is a sub domain. devforum.roblox.com counts as one anyways

He is saying that discourse forums must be on a seperate sub-domain or else it won’t work. It’s just how discourse works, ask them, not me

We added the unified header to devforum: New Top Navigation Bar: Easily Switch Between Creator Hub Pages

I’m going to close out this feature request because it is no longer forum-specific, it should now be posted at Creator Hub level if you still think this is valuable. Hopefully it should be possible to get to your group within a few clicks now though with the unified header.
