I am new to the board and did a search for how to start a thread, but no posts came up on the topic. Can anyone tell me how to start a new thread (not a reply to a post)? I googled it, and it said there is a new thread button, but I cannot find one.
Thanks!

The new thread button is at the bottom of every page in each forum.

That's what I read on google, but for some reason, that does not show up for me. The only option I have is "post reply".

You need to be on the main page of a forum (like the Welcome Board) where all the thread titles are listed. If you have opened a thread to read it will only give you the Post Reply option. On the page with the thread titles you will have the button for New Thread.

The post reply button is at the bottom of a thread page (this particular thread is titled "Welcome to the DIS boards !!"); the new thread button is at the bottom of a forum page (this thread is in the forum titled "Welcome to the DIS").

There are SO many abreviations! How do you find out what people are talking about?

siskaren · 03-07-2012, 09:05 PM

There's a sticky in this forum titled "A List of Common Abbreviations."

Hello everyone! I have been enjoying this site for many many years. I have finally decided to say hello! My family loves Disney and we try to go every year. We are once again planning on trekking down there for Fall Break!

HFBelle · 03-12-2012, 08:50 PM

Hi! Quick question... How do you get the ability to post a photo for yourself? And how are you able to change the earning my ears title under your name?

siskaren · 03-12-2012, 09:01 PM

The title under your name is determined by how many posts you have, so you're not able to change it yourself (I don't know what the levels are, but I would imagine you can find it somewhere under FAQs.)

As for posting a picture, if you're talking about under your name, click on User CP, then select Edit Avatar under Settings & Options. If you're talking about at the end of your posts (like in lovetoscrap's post), select Edit Signature under Settings & Options.

ETA: I just took a closer look at lovetoscrap's post, and realized that she has links that show how to do those things.

Hello Everyone!

I am a long time reader (lingering and drooling), and have finally decided that it was time to participate.

I am looking forward to interacting with you all and maybe even getting the chance to meet some of you sometime!

We very much enjoy Disney in every way that we can! We take part in Pin Trading, Love to indulge in the many Dining opportunities, and have decided to try out the whole Vinylmation trading thing on our upcoming trip in April.

I have used much of the good advice that has been posted on here over the last few years... so thanks to everyone for that!

On the upcoming trip, I am hoping to find the time to do a dining review for everyone.

Well with all that said .. will see you all around on here.. happy to talk to anyone, so don't be afraid to say hi

HFBelle · 03-13-2012, 06:51 AM

ok thanks very much! I'm on here most of the time from a mobile devcie, so it's difficult to figure things out sometimes!
