Title: Looking for a beginner guide
Post by: Cerobug on October 11, 2023, 07:19:24 PM
Hello all,

I came upon a "bitcoin/blockchain for dummies" post a while back, and I can't seem to locate it. I was looking for help finding it. I believe it was on someone's site here, and they posted a link to it. I believe the page itself had a blue background and did a great job explaining the blockchain/bitcoin, and I would love help finding it. I've already used the search function, but it came up empty.

Thank you

Here it is mate, I don't know if this is what you are looking for exactly, but this is a thread written by Husires which best describes what you are looking for. Bitcoin Scripts for dummies (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5262177.msg54794708#msg54794708)
I've already used the search function, but it came up empty.
Well I guess you should learn how to use the search bars more effectively. There are two bar located in top of the forum. One is a google search engine which is more effect than the other, which is the forum related search engine. But nevertheless, I think You have to check out this thread on how to use the search bar more effectively [Guide] Searching effectively (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276341.0)

I’m trying to grasp what you’re actually talking about but frankly I can’t and I think other users are getting same challenges trying to figure out what you’re talking about so I would advice that you throw more light on what you’re actually talking about if you truly need assistance but just in case you need assistance with navigating the forum, you should do well to always use the search bar for it and there isn’t any necessary need wanting to get any other knowledge from outside the forum as there might be possible scam attempts out there, so you should be careful with clicking random links in aura to get what you’re searching for and also feel free to ask every questions that seems confusing to you as there are thousands of persons will to assist and help answer all of your questions.

Blockchain For Dummies! (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5308524.0)

OP said the thread have something like blue background which I think should be this thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5262177.msg54794708#msg5479470) by Husires.

I do find it difficult to use the forum search bottom as well, but I used google search engine to search anything I want related to this forum by adding bitcointalk.org in front, and I do get some result from this forum directly. Therefore, OP you can read more about the forum search in this thread this thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276341.0) or you can be using google search like I do.

You actually did justice to OP demand. I think what you have presented is what OP is really looking for here because I already see the headings to be blue as described by OP and the content very reach in knowledge on Bitcoin. OP can also look into this thread by Ratimov as well.  it is very rich in all information about Bitcoin and other related services as well when it comes to Bitcoin too. Here's the thread;

Ratimov Beginners and Help Encyclopaedia  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5364418.0)
It is constantly updated every month with more information and discovery.

After I tried to understand what you were talking about, the "bitcoin/blockchain for dummies" post you meant was probably the one @Husires wrote some time ago. @Hatchy has attached a link to the post here which can direct you to the post you are looking for. Using a search engine really helps you search for something by entering the keywords you want to search for, but if you have used the search function, but the results are empty, maybe you entered the wrong keyword you want to search for.

Sometimes it is hard to find topics when you need them in the future, I also have to mention many topics in my post that I am currently writing on, and what I do, might come in handy for you too. I simply try to remember the keyword I might have used in that post or try to remember the topic name. And in your case buddy, you are aware of the topic name. So, all you have to do is, simply go to Ninjastic.space

Input your username and in the post content section insert the keywords and then you will find the topic regarding that specific keywords but if you have entered your username then only those topics or replies will pop up on which you have commented and if you will ignore the username section then you will see all the post in which that keyword has been used.

you should check that website out and insert your keyword as dummies or bitcoin dummies etc. Whatever you remember out of that post.

Yes exactly, he could use the ninjastic tool for this purpose but if he had used the search box properly then he might get the post he was looking for. But if still he finds some errors than, then he should go for Ninjastic because, with the help of it, Op can easily find the topic or reply he is looking for.

I was going to share the procedure but I realized that the last member already shared the procedure. All it lack was some photos so I am going to include them.

You can see, that the research shows 0 topics but you should check individually like first with BTC for dummies then Blockchain for Dummies and by writing Blockchain for Dummies I found the exact topic but there is no comment on that and that topic is already been shared by the decodx You should use ninjastic tools because it will make you more used to it and then you can easily find any topic you are seeking.

Thank you

If you remember some of the words in the thread, maybe you can search for it using the Google search engine by adding the keyword "site: bitcointalk "keyword". Using this method will make search results more accurate and only reach the bitcointalk site

I see a lot of members giving you links to threads, is there a thread you're referring to among the posts?

Not everyone knows how to make use of the search bottom that is why repeated post are often seen on the forum. To me, I think searching are better done on the home page or on the board where you think the topic you are looking for may be posted.
