• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

PITA! How to section

Could we remove the stickies in the how to section... so everytime you click a page you arent seeing the same 20 threads at the top.... If it wasn't stickied there would be 1/2 the amount of pages too.

With the way its setup it wouldn't make it harder to find anything as the section is small itself.
 


Isn't that the whole point of stickies?

yes, but i know exactly what he means. is there anyway to maybe sticky them only to the first page, we have 9 pages now and in reality only need 5 or so.. also maybe deleting the ones that are completely useless.. like say the one on how to do a burnout...
 
i know what you mean and i can unsticky them if thats the case. im pretty sure you cant just stick them to the first page...
 
i don't see why we can't un-sticky them. we have a whole how-to tab, just move everything there and add a link to the original thread
 
^i think that is a good idea, but all the newbs are gonna post up all these questions about, "how do i...", and then we have to direct them all to the "how-to" button, when they can't even find the search button!!!
 


I think the absolute best thing we can do is put a sticky in the "Introductions and Information" section with a link to the How-to's, a short list of common problems (we can sort those out later) a link to the Safely Modding thread just as a general guideline for beginning modders. I have been looking on new forums, trying to find info about other car models, and this has been a recurring, very successful theme.

If you agree with this, hit the thanks button (saves me having to search around and find comments) and if i see a fair few of those then i'll start a thread, probably in this section, just for discussing which threads and links should be included in the "Newbie" thread.
 
i would greatly appreciate that if it was done...it would be great to have all that info in a single area for noobie guys like me.
