1. The mobile app has a handy tab that lets you view all the threads you've 'participated' in whether you've subscribed or not. It would be nice if this existed for the desktop version of the site.
2. The mobile app does not have an easy to access tab for accessing subscribed threads. It would be nice if it had this feature.
Sorry if this is not the right plce ot post this.
To view subscribed threads on the app, click on the Favorites tab then click on Topics.
To make the suggestion for a participated section on the website, use the (requests) From Users to the Mods and Admins thread, but the request has been made before and the general response is just to auto-subscribe to threads you post in.

Strange that they blow off a feature that is so prominent in the app.
Thanks.

True, but when features get added that aren't really needed (because of the work around) that's when things can start going wrong.
Just like the report feature that used to be part of the app.

On your profile there is a link to "Find all posts by <you>". It links to http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?do=finduser&u=<your userid>. Click on that, it is exactly the same search that the "Find threads I participated in" uses.

Hi,
It will be helpful if a tab is add when we open the account to view the post/Thread and activities we done so we can browse it so fast and easy, otherwise whats the use of our personal account
Cheers

You can easily view all your posts and threads in your profile.
Click your username up the top right of the forum. Then go to the Statistics tab. Here you can see all your posts and all your threads
Or if you click on User CP up the top of the forum, this shows you all the threads you are subscribed to

You have to enable subscription by default in "Options" or on a thread by Thread basis.
These will then show in the User CP.

Also if the mods don't mind, i would like to chip in. the use of having a personal account on XDA is to combat spam, therefore more valuable post are available to view, otherwise there would have been a lot of spam
...if we could bookmark single posts, and not just threads on here?
For example, I open this post in a new tab, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15674362&postcount=37121
I wish I could bookmark it.
I know some forums have that, but I don't think XDA does, just subscribed threads.

I presume you don't mean browser bookmark?
Correct. I mean on the site, where I can go to my profile and along with my subscribed threads would be bookmarks.
SDX has this.
Great idea
I've had to dig through my post history to point six members in the direction of some instructions to put Android on the HD2 now.
Excellent idea, I have seen this already on another forum !
+1, i would say its a great idea.
I'm not a forum noob by any stretch but all others I've been on over the years have some way to display all the threads I posted in, and mark them bold if they have an update I haven't seen yet.
I have yet to find this on xda and it's getting old, even after only a few days, to go from forum to forum and check for updates to any threads I contributed to. What am I missing?
ETA: I'm looking for something like "display all subscribed topics" in a shortcut form somewhere. I really don't want to have to do this through advanced searches. It kills the entire intent of getting a quick overview of updates.
I found the issue. Apparently contributing to a thread doesn't add that thread to your subscribed threads list. This is a (pita, very unfortunate) manual step you have to do per thread if you want to keep up with the thread. I'm very surprised it has to be this way, but so be it.
If anyone knows of a way to change this on a per-user level please let me know.

Change your settings to auto-subscribe to every thread you post in. That way if you post in one that you don't want to track you can just choose to unsubscribe from it.
Go to your User Control Panel. Under 'Settings & Options' select 'Edit Options'. Then look for the "Default Thread Subscription Mode" setting - I recommend you set it to "No email notification"

Right. I noticed the app has it but it's harder to do in the forum lol
I got it folks. Thanks. The only thing I would wish for is a one-click shortcut to my subscribed threads. But I have bookmarks for that

If you want to view your subscribed threads and forums using the app then click the "Favorites" tab and you'll be able to view them.
Apologies if I misunderstood your problem.

If you want to see all of your participated threads in the browser view, go to the Advanced search, enter your username, make sure "Search All Open Forums" is selected under Search in Forums, leave everything else alone. Your results are displayed as threads in chronological order of last reply to that thread. The last reply of any member, not just you.
I did search, and nothing came up.
I checked the xda FAQ, but it seemed to be more about phones than actual forum questions..
So here goes, dont flame me if I didnt search enough, I did search.
Where is the option to see my posts? And then go to the thread and my last post in that thread to continue reading?
I searched Control Panel (which seems to be the only thing avaliable that pertains to my user) with magnifying glass.
Could not find.
I feel really stupid and sorry to ask such a noob question.
- Go to your own profile page (click on the user name in the upper right)
- Click the Statistics tab
- Click "find all posts by aliendna99"
Moved to About XDA section.
You can also go to the advanced search and then "Search by user name". It will then show your posts.

It would be good to have this as a direct link for example in 'Quick links' or near the username in the upper right (where 'Control Panel' and 'Log Out' are).
Yeah it could be great
And is it possible to have a "View my posts" link for having a follow up of threads where we participated without subscription. If an answer has been posted the thread is at the top of the list.
I'm on a french forum and this feature is very useful.
Thank you.

If you want to view all of your participated threads that way, you will need to use the Advanced Search, put your name in the User Name box, then make sure the Search in Forums selection is set to All Open Forums. Leave everything else on defaults. All your participated threads will be shown with the newest replied thread at the top.
Thank you,

As I've progressed through devices, I've added subscriptions to device forums. Some of these I'd like to remove from my list of subscriptions, but I can't find any way to do this.
When clicking Forum Tools in said forums, I am only given the option to subscribe (again?).
Looking forward to any hints you may give.
Cheers, and thanks for a fantastic community!

Select the threads, of which you like to cancel the subscription, by ticking them. Then go down to the bottom and for the field "Selcted Threads" open the dropdown and select "Delete Subscription". Afterwards just click on "Go".
EDIT: In a thread itself (i.e. for a single one) you find on top the possibility to cancel the subscription for that thread.

Negative, most likely my fault as I didn't read your post closely eneough.
And I apologise I don't know about any "bulk possibility" to remove subscriptions from fora. Maybe someone else do?
I think you need to unsubcribe forum by forum but al least Style XDA 2015 (different to the other styles) allows you to accomplish this directly out of the overview.
