Moving "Mark all forums read" to the top

Hello.
Lilttle annotanion concerning the forum layout.
Could you please move the link "mark all forums read" to the top where all other global links are. Would be much easier to use this. Now in the moment i've to go back to the forum index to be able to use it.
Don't know exactly, but i'm nearly sure, nobody usess the "view unanswered posts" link.
Maybe also the search button could be deleted, cause many people don't use it.. :wink:
Regards
Stefan

Text sound

I recently upgraded to WM6.1 and I can't seem to add the sounds I want for Text Messages.
Either they changed something, or I forgot a step.
Help please

If he did a search he wouldn't needed to make a pointless thread , I wouldn't made a post without an answer, and you wouldn't have made a smartass comment like you know it all. How long did it take you to search for that thread link you posted? I'm sure it would've taken krucifix the same amount of time it took you.

I didn't make a smartass comment until you told me that if I was posting that I should give an answer. The difference between you and I is that I contribute to the forum and I don't make comments about people posting without giving the answers and even after all my time here I still search for answers rather that making threads. The point I'm trying to say is we need people to do some research on the forum for their problems and try to solve them themselves instead of expecting to be given the answers to everything. There is a high percentage that an issue has been covered and resolved on the past and if people would search they could get an answer without the need of a new thread of a topic that is on another thread. Peace..

Spoon-feeding people does nothing to help. If there too lazy to search first before asking, what good do they add to the community? And if he upgraded to 6.1, shouldn't that question have been addressed in the rom thread he's using? Why does it deserve its on special thread when it related to a rom he's using that has its own thread? It was stupid to start a new thread, regardless of whether or not someone gave him the answer. BTW, did you just pull that link out of your head, or did you have to search for it/him?

Imagine yourself lost and ask someone for help but only to get a reply like: "Why don't you learn to read a map dumbass." Tell them what they need and then teach them how to find things themselves.

Read the map dumbass: http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php
Is now going to be my standard answer. Thanks so much for you help!

No No No, people need to use the search then ask for help if the knowledge they are looking for is not available to which considering how much info is on XDA then the answer is generally there..... If not then make a post in the correct thread!!!
We are here to help not spoon-feed.......​
show:
He had to search as we know a better answer

That's what I was trying to do, show him the way to answering it himself, but somehow I came out like an ahole

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438313

have you tried searching the forum?
i know there is at least one out, but i will not direct you to it. I think you should search the forum and find it. you will see that it is much quicker and easier than starting a new thread.
i apologize for being such a **** to you... but someone had to tell you this.
edit:
never mind.. i took too long to type post that is non offending and still get the point across. Jojordy already helped you out.

How do I give thanks for a post?

Hello, all.
First of all, let me say that I did not make the decision to create a thread lightly. I have been a member of this forum for over a year, and this is my first post. I have looked everywhere, but cannot find this simple answer.
How do I thank a member for his/her excellent work? Specifically, I have been trying to thank twa_priv for his excellent Kindle Fire JB build, which I have been using fr the last week or so. I cannot find a thank button. I do not have permission to post in the thread; (which I do not have any intention of doing, anyway, unless I have a specific question or error to report) but, does that mean I do not have permission to thank? Do I need to spam away 9 more posts to have the right to thank someone? I read that there should be a picture of a flower (or, at least, there would be on Tapatalk, which I am not using), but don't see anything of the sort using Chrome on Ubuntu.
Thank you in advance.

Now that you have replied, the "Thanks" button has appeared on your and others' posts. I don't understand why it wasn't before, but all is fine now. Thank you!

Hey, and you even hit it. Awesome! Perhaps you just need someone to reply to one of your posts to activate it initially? I learned something today.

Give thanks
left side there is a thanks button

To activate the thanks button, you need atleast one post as a member...

And after posting sign out and back in. That is what worked for me.
And thanks to a.cid for posting how to be a new user. I read that a while back, before I ever joined xda. :banghead:

That's exactly the information I was looking for. The link was helpful, too. You may have noticed that I gave a disclaimer to my post. I have been using this forum for thirteen months without ever having posted anything. I felt like a total jerk for even having had to create a thread for something so trivial. I usually search and easily find the answer to any question, but was not finding anything about this. I am certainly trying not to be obnoxious to anyone. Thanks again!

We need more members who know how to search for answers. The fact that you made it 13 months without posting is impressive.

Thank you all for this post. Had I searched a day or two earlier, it probably would have been a lot harder to find this info.

Moved to About XDA section.

hopefully this solves it
I have the same problem. Hopefully this first post of mine will reveal the illusive thanks button

left side dont have meh?

You will need a few more thanks to move the meter, 24 more to be exact. Good Luck!!
[GUIDE] How to be a New User (and not a noob)

Trying to be a good new user I searched for how to give thanks and found this thread instead of spaming other threads with "Thanks for posting" Appreciate the clarification on why I couldn't see the thanks button.

Thank YOU!
I actually joined this site just to thank someone who posted an updated app, but wasn't sure how until I saw this.
Feels like a lot of hoops, but hopefully it's worth it.

It's at the bottom-left of the post . I don't have it at first but after my first post , *poof* it's there and available XD

Thanks for the thread as I also want to be able to give people their just due.

Just in addition:
On Tapatalk and XDA app, just long-press the post you want to thank for, then scroll a little bit to the right in the appearing actions menu and select "Thanks" (may be in your system's language).

Enable thanks button by having a post
This is my obligatory first post to enable the thanks button. Figured this was the best thread to do it.
