Bitcoin Forum

Before everything, let us differentiate THREAD vs POSTS.

Here is the great explanation of greg.harvey (https://www.drupal.org/node/293679).

-THREAD is the initial *starting* post.
POST is a reply to a THREAD or a reply to a post within a thread.
POST is a form of COMMENT

What is pinned thread?
-An important thread thay may serve as a guide for all the newbies and members. It should be read by everyone as this may help a lot of members when, where and how to start posting in the forum.

Why is this pinned threads are important?
- Sometimes, we are unconsciously breaking the rules. To prevent that, pinned posts are usually located at the top of the section and it may include forum rules. This is to seems the awareness of everyone.

This is an example of a thread that is pinned:

Been reading a lot of repeated questions from newbies and they are seem lazy to use the search bar and only bump in didferent sections of the forum creating the same topic all over the forum. It just added spam posts/threads.

I've decided to start this thread to help especially newbies and guide them eventually with thier journey in this forum community.

Turns out like this:
   Moiyah (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?
     action=profile)

Cheers!:-)

This is wrong lol. This is the correct format:


It will end up like this: Moiyah (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1658787)
The easiest way to get a person's profile link is by clicking their name in a thread. The same is true even for your own profile link as clicking PROFILE doesn't give you the proper link.

Also, just so you know, this doesn't work like tagging in social media where the people you mentioned get notified.

This is also how you get a word/phrase to redirect to a link. Just edit the url and the word(s) between the url tags.

I was clicking that link


and there I just move to BitcoinTalk Home page, I think he just didn't know how to get his profile link url...


Then for Moiyah (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1658787) if u really didn't know how to get your profile link url, better you go to this link (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3310088.msg34559287#msg34559287)...

that was very helpfull. thanks for the info mate,

Oh, yeah seems like I didn't copy the whole profile link. Lol. My bad. Anyway, they are right. It will not tag the person here. Just to mention their name and will just redirected to their profile.
