This isn't my first forum... and this should not be difficult, however, I can not find a method to subscribe to a forum. I've clicked every possible setting, icon and menu from this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2
And I have not discovered the magical combination that subscribes me to the forum... I've done it in the past, I've I deleted my old phone forum subscription prior to beginning this quest.
Any help appreciated.
TIA

subscribe to forum ?? or subscribe to thread?
He means subscribe to the subforum for the OnePlus 2, and I agree with him, I cant seem to find it anywhere.

The wiki ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com ) contains a tiny start of what could become a very nice FAQ. I do not have time over the next weeks to expand what's there, and appeal to any and all with some time on their hands to please see if they can add structure, or just questions and their answers. Feel free to change it until it's good, that's what wikis are for.
Nice post peter
Question for you
How would you feel if you had spent over 2 months building a wiki for the blueangel, posting the files to the ftp site, to find that they got deleted on the 16 .
Pm 2 admins, one picking up the pm but not repliying, the orher not picking up the pm.
Rebuilding the trashed ftp site, re linking the wiki links, Posting to the ftp non public thread, reading that it will happen soon, watching the ftp site getting trashed again (today) and then reading your reqest?
Ps you have a pm from me datedted 16 march, feel like picking it up?
Why this beautifull FAQ (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel) is not visible for ordinary people? I found it by accident.
But it is!
Top of screen to the right is the link wiki.xda-developers.com
On that page under HTC Device you will find Blueangel
The Blueangel Link gets you to that page
Never thought that behind these WiKi activities this FAQ is hidden - put another link under this WiKi.XDA-devloppers.com link with something like "How Blue Angel works" or "Blue Angel FAQ" or "Knowledgebase". So a person who visits for the first time immediatly sees this fine product of hard labor.
What happen to the Magician section ? Are we being ignore ???
Well, I really love your job, however, my device is being left out !!
Wiki like the forum is user driven. In short if no user feels the need or want to update wiki then it just does not happen.
You dont need to be a moderator to add pages in wiki, you dont even need to be good in english for somebody down the line will add or correct your page.
I have to say - that's a real shame.
There's a lot of information requested on these forums that has been requested before - but often it's buried deep in a confusing thread (most recently the splash image tweaks for the HTC Wizard - I have no idea what util tweaks what splash).
I just created a Wiki page (search for my username, I guess - it's not really linked from anything much yet), and I plan to create more related to the Wizard as time becomes available.
Wikis are inherently much better at giving concise information than an open-discussion forum... wish people would use it.

Hi guys, is it possible to have access to google-analytics results? Since we need to know for what the users are looking for - the most common search, how they act in site (in wiki! and so on)
Then we can make THE wiki.
Posting to the ftp non public thread, reading that it will happen soon

Hi there,
I've just signed up so that I could reformat http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Boot_Image , but I can't seem to login to the wiki.
I've tried with Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4, both show the board software indicating a successful login, before redirecting back to the wiki where the login box is still present and "you need to login to edit.."
I tried clearing cookies for wiki.xda-developers.com, but it didn't help.
I am not sure, but probably you need to have a certain amount of Posts before you can update the wiki
Hmm, is there perhaps some way I can get around this? Really every question I have has probably been answered 100 times over, and asking them again just to generate credit seems a bit silly. The only thing I can help contribute to is organizing the existing information..
"To be able to create or edit pages, you need to be registered as a user at xda-developers.com. If you are not registered as a user then go to http://forum.xda-developers.com and click 'register' in the menu on the top of the page. Once you're logged in to the forum, you will automatically also be logged in here. If you have an xda-developers account but aren't logged in, simply click the 'sign in' link on the bottom of this page."
You should ask the admin in this concern.
Thanks corepda, Addicted2xda.
I'll see about finding an admin to ask. There is no 'sign in' link, only the standard phpWiki login box, which seems to be wired to the forum login script. However simply clicking the login button gives me a login failure (as per the paragraph you quoted), and entering my username+pw logs me in at the forum but not at the wiki..
Just to say same for me just get looped

Hmm, and you've been a member for over a year. Looks like something is broken. Anyone know who the admins are, or how to ask the forum software to message an admin?
Ok, I found the 'message admins' link and sent them a link to this thread. Yay!
Thread repoted to the staff, I am sure they will reply at the soonest to give you an appropriate reply. Good Luck.

Yeah i have had to get other users to edit the wiki when needed, but never thought to bring it up, so i'd guess it's accounts and not a xda wiki issue?
ok peeps,
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Boot_Image
You can see that i have been able to edit the said wiki. Can you give it another go and reply back here. If there is still a problem i will notify admin.

Same here:
Exactly what happens:
I'm logged into XDA i go to WIKI and choose article, click edit and the log in field pops up i enter my XDA login and it goes to the signing in pop up and loops back to the login.
I think the admins need to look into this.
I've asked Flar to get someone to look at it.

Hey Luke you are not allowed to edit WIKI because you didn't send me birthday pics.
LOL
matter is getting really hot. But I am able to edit wiki, not that much qualified to put anything that deserve change though.

Hi all,
Sorry for my late reply the issue escaped my attention.
I've been able to reproduce the issue with a test account, but am unable to fix it myself. I have notified our sysadmin and wiki admins and they will take a look at the issue as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Flar
i think it is ok that new members can't edit the wiki...i am able to do it and i posted a page few days ago so everything is ok from my point of view and the wiki is still editable
remember the wiki vandalism?
and when our ftp went down?
so don't rush to deal with it...it is just fine this way

1. This issue seems to have nothing to do with being a new member or not, my test account has the same issue and that's been here just as long as I have been.
2. Wiki vandalism has nothing to do with being a new member, a new member can just as well have useful info to share.
3. FTP downtime? what has that got to do with it? The last ftp downtime I could remember had nothing to do with new members but with us not scanning for viruses.
Best regards,
Flar

i know that new member doesn't stay for those who do things to wiki...but they potentially are a bigger threat than people who are here for ages...not saying that ivan will do but...there are a lot of crazy people who will sign in just to do damage
not specifically the last one...but things like the one that happened in 2005..someone bashed it..there is a whole thread about it

Hello, this is the only vBulletin forum that I browse(I'm more of a SMF guy, I use it and develop for it) and I can't find the place where I can see new topics in which I have participated(Tapatalk does this for this forum). Is there a link where I can see the new topics?

A couple of things you can do:
1
Subscribe to threads you are interested in and receive email notification of new posts being added.
2
Bookmark your profile page http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=1153710 and in there go to the statistics tab>Find all posts by. Then by clicking on your posts you can see if there have been any replies.
Not sure if these links might work also:
Find all posts by Dragooon123
Find all threads started by Dragooon123

im using subscription witout email, means i can go to my user cp and i see all threads i subscripted that have new posts
so i dont get too many emails but see all new replys..
The question is,
why does the XDA app offer this feature,
but the full version of the board does not?
I could theoretically run an emulator, run the XDA android app, and use this forum MORE efficiently than actually turning on a laptop. I use the 'participated' area every single day.
That seems backward. There has to be a way to pull this data to a web browser, if it can be pulled to an Android phone.

You should set your usercp so that it will automatically subscribe to threads you reply to (without notification)
Then go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/subscription.php?do=viewsubscription&folderid=all to view them.

Sorry to dredge up an old topic, but I haven't found an answer to the same question, and this is the only time I have seen it have replies. Finding threads posted by a user will not do the same thing, the participated thread button in the tapatalk or xda app does. One should not have to subscribe to every thread either, that would be pointless considering that is for threads you REALLY want to follow.
The information is accessible to the app, which means ultimately it would be easy to implement on the website, and it is counter productive you can only find it in app. The best answer I have is find the posts in the app, but if I have to post something longer, or with links, I have to find the thread on the website.
As popular as this site is, this feature would improve quite a bit.. people(maybe more noobs) would actually follow threads they've posted questions on, so the replies aren't a waste of time. How many threads have multiple people asked for more details and the OP never replies.. Subscribing to threads would only work on any new posts, and some of my oldest ones I would still want to know activity for. This all seems obvious.
Hey guys, I have been tring to fix this for awhile now and I nust can't seem to find an answer.
I am running viper venom 6.1 on 5.0.2 and since the upgrade from the 4.x.x to the 5.0.2 wifi password won't be saved for over 24hours, meaning I have to re-enter passwords to networks that I was already connected to every 10 to 24 hours.
Please help me find a solution.
One reason you can't find the answer, is that you cross posted your question to the AT&T section. I responded there yesterday trying to help there; and you didn't reply.
There is a reason cross posting is against forum rules (confuses both those seeking help, and those trying to help).

Its nice of you to point it out but the fact is that you tried to help and left because that side of the forum it dead. So I'm sorry that I opened this talk in the atnt section at the begining but here is where people are talking and helping.
Please help me and others understand the problem

Your "fact" is false and incorrect. I did not "leave" the forum. I regularly visit the AT&T section every day, but not on weekends, and not while I'm travelling (which I was last week Nov. 2-6).

Ironic statement, since I responded to your post in the AT&T section; and nobody (aside from myself) in this "international" section has posted a single response.
I'll be happy to help you in the first place you posted (AT&T section).
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.
