Unable to edit options in User CP? - About xda-developers.com

I can't seem to turn off other people's sig's or change the thread view count per page.
Particularly the sigs is frustrating, because there doesn't appear to be any limit so users are free to fill up half the vertical view space on my 24" monitor with their sig.

3.two-finger pinch zoom can preview all the groups page to quickly locate group page, the Metro interface of similar win8 RT zoom screen
4.Each page name to edit the page can be any exchange order
5.the use of two fingers can quickly adjust to a magnet to move between multiple pages

TBH, I like you ideas, but it should be more fits if it is in a Hub, but start screen, no thanks. It is a mess and cluttered IMO.

Minimalist forum theme?

I looked at the 2013Beta theme, and the forum page looks very similar to the current 2013 theme...
Is it possible to get a minimalist theme for the forums? Possibly with a dynamic reaction added to the interface?
For example...
myself, personally... unless I care about a specific post, I really don't want to have the user's profile and avatar and signature taking up so much real estate on the screen, that there is actually more of that content, than there is actual posts that I am looking to read.
and then, perhaps a hover state would reveal the entire contents of the post. Even the quoted text could be included in what is revealed on hover. I know that I see many posts with huge quote sections, that I don't need to see, because the response is thorough enough or directly following the post it is quoting in the first place.
Perhaps even give the user settings, where they can choose which elements are hidden until they mouse over the "reveal all" section of the post, or hit the "reveal all" toggle. Something like that... it could even be a right click menu or hover menu on the title bar of the post.
I did a quick DOM edit just now and screen capped the comparisons. This is without even touching on the concept of smaller icons, less padding... etc
I know that many people like to see interfaces in different ways. I deal with UI enhancements for productivity/usability purposes on a daily basis. And for me, having as little extra information to ignore on the screen, as my eyes scan for information I am actually interested in, makes for a much easier flow, as well as faster.
thanks for reading!

Portal Bug - Forum Quicklinks refresh on click

When on the XDA Portal a mouse click anywhere on the screen will cause the Forums quicklinks to refresh. Instead of showing individual tabs for the forums, topics, and PMs it then displays all three tabs at once. I've noticed this happen on Safari, Firefox, and Chrome and didn't see anyone else mention it as a bug, so...
For the code people at XDA:
I'm guessing the issue is with the #vB-widget and script that populates it. Whenever there is a click (left or right) the three tabs are all assigned the .sC-active class. I've attached a screenshot so you can see where I am talking about.. There are also some odd formatting things (like paragraphs being put in a ul without being surrounded by li's) that may also be tied to this.

[Q] Forum text size

Hey this might be a stupid question but the forum text is way small and really strains my eyes. Is there any way to change it? zooming with chrome just make the entire page bigger, and the text lines are the width of my monitor by the time the text is comfortable to read. Im using a 30" 2560x1600 monitor about 60cm away. Surely I'm not crazy here?
While I'm at it is there a way to change the theme aside from stylish? black text on white background make homer something something...
I tried to search for this for a while but theres ten million phone related posts for anything to do with font or text size. I guessing this is the right place to post this, even though it says THIS IS NOT A Q&A FORUM STOP BREAKING THE RULES. I couldn't find a q&a subforum about the website.

[Q] Got any suggestions for this homescreen?

Based on: http://mycolorscreen.com/2013/10/18/google-ui-13/
Screenshots here: https://imgur.com/a/u6yML#2
I'm quite happy with the 'Home' page, and the 'Google' page, but I'm not sure entirely how to go about doing the apps page.
I was thinking of doing it all with zooper widget (like the google page - none of those are actual icons, it's all zooper widget.) in order to position things properly, because the launcher grid doesn't allow actual icons to be placed in appropriate positions.
I need some music controls somewhere too - maybe at the bottom of the google page, or the apps page if I split the rectangle background?
Also, I'm thinking of swapping the position of the top 'navbars' and the bottom searchbar, so that I can have a persistent google search (which only displays on the top with no option to place it on the bottom (Nova Launcher). This would require changing the wallpaper background to have the zooper widget search box as part of the background, with the actual search widget on top of it, unless there's a way to have the search zooper widget act/behave exactly like the google search bar?
I plan to release the files when done if anyone is interested
Lock screen is temporary until I figure out what to do with that - ideas/suggestions?
Thanks in advance guys.

With a layout as clean as you have now, I would be concerned that putting in music controls would complicate things unnecessarily. You might consider hiding the music controls using popup widget 2, or something similar. This would allow you to have music controls at the touch of a button, but not persistent (so that if you aren't listening to music they aren't in the way).
Auto popup with important info (short)
Hello,
I have been on this forum for a short moment now. And like to say thank you first for all the help so far. Thank you for your patience too!
You guys and girls have helped me root and customise my phones.
On topic:
I see there is a need to educate users for the right way to post messages. I suggest a kind of popup with the most important rules.
One of the important issues is that the forum is being filled with posts that are not at right place.
Like developer forum where questions are asked. I myself made myself guilty as well. Been thinking how to correct it.
The solution might be as follows:
- Create a popup that shows the most important rules.
- The same popup has a link to the more complete rules page.
- at the end people sign they acknowledge they have read it and understand.
- Then people can press ok
- A new popup shows (based on login). It shows a quiz and will ask questions. If the user does not know, he /she will not get access to
the forum at all!
- All users must complete this test! Not completing equals no access. After completing you will be sure the user knows the rules.
- Extra precausion, or called penalty if a user does something that is not right. No warning given, but the penalty will be given like
unable to login. Let's say 2 days to start with. With a second violation the period is extended to 1 week. Third time 1 month offline.
Forum admin keep the right to freeze a user and put that user onto a blacklist any time. Which means no access any longer.
Perhaps combine that with IP registration.
I don't know about you, but if I really need an answer fast, I would think twice to make big mistakes again and again.
I know the forum is not the quickest in answering, but people do answer, and usually have good answers.
Hope these suggestions are usefull. B.t.w. this website looks really good! :good: But the content that is offered, outmatches the looks
by a million times. The data, tools,apps made by you guys and roms are priceless!
Keep on the good work
