    Exclamation Helpful Hints - vBulletin Edition

    I'm creating a NEW hints and tips thread since vBulletin is much different.

    Number one: READ THE FAQ! It contains TONS of information on posting, how the software works, etc.

    If you ask me questions that are answered in the FAQ, I'm going to reply with a link to the topic to read.

    Some useful navigation pointers.

    In a list of threads (search results, forum page, whatever), firstnew.png is the "take me to the first unread post" button and lastpost-right.png is the "go to last post" button.

    Hover over those images and they'll helpfully tell you what they do!

    You have a picture of a blue circle with down arrows or a rectangle with sideway arrows. I'm here looking at your tips. I don't see the blue things on your 2 posts. Am I in the wrong place to see the blue things? Or, did I do some sort of modification on settings that now means I can't see your blue things?

    You have to be looking at a list of threads.

    What is the "+ at the bottom of a post in the grey bottom border?

    It's to quote multiple posts.

    When you click on it, it puts a check mark next to the post. Then when you Reply with Quote, all of the ones that are checked are quoted in your reply.

    Sometimes I pretend to be normal
    but it gets boring so I go back to being me.

    I've figured out how to get an avatar, but I haven't figured out how to add the words at the bottom.
    I tried "edit signature" but nothing is displaying so that must not be it. So, stressed and Jazz Luvr, how did you do that?
    Sometimes you just have to do what feels right with your money instead of what is "optimal". Too many focus on optimal outcomes, when good enough is good enough. (Thanks to Retired @ 50)
