I haven’t yet discovered a logout icon nor an option to only view native language topics. Suggestions, please.
logout icon: open your profile and look…
Native language topics: click on community and scroll to Non-English Boards
logout:
Native langage
as Luukjr says, you can access it via the sub-menu, then save it in your favourites so you can come back to it whenever you want (like on the old forum).
you can also do a search
Is it possible to enable the classic interface? 
The new one looks too confusing and uncomfortable. There is a lot of unnecessary information in the start screen. In order to find what you need, you need to make a lot of unnecessary movements in intricate ways. I’m afraid this will alienate newcomers, especially from non-English-speaking topics. Due to the complexity of the interface, there will be many structural errors when creating new topics. Chaos will ensue. In short, the new interface makes an impression worse than the start menu in Windows 8. Someone give me a “Start is back”
I agree, Navigation to specific Product and Language sections is now a nightmare.
The listing of sections as icons instead of list does not help.
I am seeing lots of Non-English posts under “General” and scattered in other sections, where they stay unanswered. This has not been thought through well by the devs. The old Forun for al its faults was clear and easy to navigate. This new one is just poor.
I agree. Navigation is terrible.
Thanks @chris…, the examples you provided got me to the logout option, though I find it somewhat non-intuitive to have to search through profile options to get there. Before logging in, the Login button is prominent on the main menu right next to Ask the Community so I would have thought that would just change to “Logout” once one was “connected”. But no, even the left click on my Acccount icon is still one click further down the rabbit hole to get the Logout. Oh well, welcome the new, “not really improved, just different” , Avast Web forum.
BTW, your reply was displayed in a language I do not “speak”, so thank you for annotatting with the red “pen”. I don’t recall that your (based on your name and image) posts in the “old” forum were in any language but English. Any idea what changed?
My second concern with Language settings was that although I am registered as an English user, I see other language posts in a number of topics. I wasn’t meaning to ask how to find those language boards, sorry if that wasn’t clear. There was another post in this topic by @rocksteady that perhaps speaks more percisely on that issue.
His forum interface is in French. You can change your forum interface language settings in Profile → Preferences → Interface → Interface language.
The high number of foreign language topics in General etc. is due to the poor navigation options here on the new forum. Getting to the subforum selection menu is convoluted.
and yet if you visit the French section, you’ll see that I’m a much more frequent contributor there than here.
By the way, with the avatars of the people who take part in the topics of this new forum, it’s much easier to get an idea of the contributors than on the old one.
So, no, nothing’s changed, it’s just that I’d probably never had a chance to take a screenshot of how to use the menus on the old forum.
On the other hand, I remember having posted screenshots of my avast UI product and it was in my native language, which is French, but it’s true that the screens from the old forum weren’t transferred to the new one.
As for the messages you see in another language on the international section, let me tell you, there have always been some, even on the old forum, it’s just that many were moved (before you could realize it) by active members who had this ability (called Uberevangelists).
We’ll have to be a little patient after this big change, but there’s no doubt that those who were doing this (voluntary) job behind the scenes will come back and do it here, and not just to move topics around.
