Is it possible for individual users to configure the way the forums are presented to us when we log in? I only participate in a very select group of forums here and it would be nice to hide the ones I am not interested in and only display the one I do participate in.
Is something like this possible?
Thanks,

I believe you can do this already in compact view
Or add some to your avorites.
Sent from my Sense 4.0 Glacier using XDA Premium.
Keep an eye out for some changes coming soon which includes a different way to view the front page after you log in so that only "subscribed" forums will show. We hope that this will cut down on page load times considerably since many members have just a few device specific forums that they read.
I'm writing this guide to the XDA app because there are a few guides already but they only cover use of the desktop site.
This is for all of you who use the app instead, but may not know how to do certain things.
I will keep this as simple as possible so it's easy for anyone to follow what's being said.
If anyone has a suggestion as to what I should add, or if I should remove or include anything, please let me know by either posting in here of sending me a PM.
To start with, for those who haven't got the xda application, the free version can be found here. But I'd suggest buying XDA Premium because it's ad-free, has a few features which the free version doesn't and it's donating money to this wonderful site
Right, now you've got the app it's time to show you around.
Across the top of the app you will see different tabs for you to choose from.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'll tell you what each of these tabs contains and what you can do.
Latest
As you can see above, you can click on either Unread, All and Participated.
*Unread - This allows you to view the last 1000 threads from across the site except for those where you're the latest person to comment.
*All - This is similar to Unread but shows the 1000 latest threads, whether you've been the last to post or not.
*Participated - This allows you to view all of the threads that you've posted in.
Forums
This is where you'll find all of the different forums across XDA. This includes a ton of device specific forums, a general discussion forum, and forums dedicated to the development and hacking of different OS's.
Favorites
As you can see, we have 2 options here.
*Forums - You can subscribe to a whole forum here, just as I have for my devices. This is a good idea if you're helping out in your devices forum quite often.
*Topics - At some point on xda, you'll probably find yourself subscribing to a thread so you can easily keep up with it. This is where all subscribed threads are placed.
I'll explain how to subscribe to a thread/forum later on.
PM
If you want to check your PMs or which PMs you've sent, you need look no further.
You'll easily be able to notice if you have received a new PM because the top message to show will be highlighted (see pic above)
More
This tab gives you the following options :
*Profile - View your own profile to see how many posts/thanks you've had and your general information.
*Who's Online - Simply shows you every user who is currently on.
*Search - Searching is one of the biggest things for you to do if you want to find out information. To make searching easier, only search for keywords rather than the whole question.
*News - This is great for viewing stories on the Portal, without being on the Portal. It shows the most recent portal posts, just as the desktop site does.
*Settings - You can change theme, font size, in-app signature(I'll explain this later), preferences etc.
-*
--*Display Style - This gives you a choice of a few styles and themes for the app.
--*Font Size - Here you can change the font size from small to very large.
--*Default View - You can choose what you want to load up right away when you open the app. Choose from Latest, Forums, Favorites or PM.
--*Notification - Here you can choose which push notifications come through to your device, how often to check for notifications as well as select a ringtone for when they come through.
--*Prefix Display - You can change the options to either No Prefix, Only in Topic View, Only in Thread View or Both Topic and Thread.
--*Use 24-hour format - Tick the box to have 24 hour time displayed or un-tick the box to display AM/PM.
--*Posts per Page - Change how many posts you wish to view on a single page. Choices range from 10 to 50.
--*Loading Behaviour - You can change how it loads up a thread. It will either Show Oldest Post, Jump to First Unread post or you can Jump to the Newest Post.
--*Tapatalk Signature - You can choose to have no in-app signature, Sent from [enter device name] using xda, Sent from [enter device name] or you can set your own.
--*Customize - Customize your in-app signature to whatever you'd like (as long as it's in accordance with the Forum Rules).
*NOTE* Your in-app signature is different to your site-wide signature and will also show as being part of your post. So please be sure to separate your post from this signature
--*Enable BBCode - Tick to enable BBCode. If you're not sure what BBCode is, or want a full list then click here.
--*Enable Smilies - Tick/un-tick to enable/disable the use of smilies.
--*Show Avatar - Tick to show people's avatars. Un-tick so no-one's avatar is shown.
--*Display English - Choose whether to display all writing in English or not. The default language will be whichever language your device is set to.
--*Save files to - Choose where to save all files which you download using the app.
--*Search History - You can clear the history of all searches you've made whilst using the app.
*Logout - Lets you logout of xda but can still view the forums.
*Exit - Exits you from the app right away.
Stickies - If you wish to view the stickied threads of whichever forum you're in (and I suggest you do), then you need to click the Stickies tab inside a sub-forum. (See pic below)
There you will see the threads which have been placed there because they contain important and useful information which will help you out.
Creating A Thread - Before I explain how to create a thread, please follow my suggestion to read the stickied threads first. Also, please read this great guide by saywhatt - [HOW TO] make a good THREAD, POST, QUESTION and POLL and that will explain exactly what to add to your threads to make it the best it can be!
Now it's time for you to learn how to create a thread for yourself
Once you know for sure you're in the correct forum, you're ready to start.
*When you're in the list of threads in that forum, what you need to do is to press the menu button on your device. Doing so will bring up the following options -
*Simply click on the New Topic option and you'll then be brought to the following screen :-
*In the Subject box is where you need to put the title of your thread. Please be sure to follow the guide mentioned above so you can make the most suitable title possible.
*In the box below the Subject box is where you type your post. This will be the first post of your thread so, following the advice is the guide previously mentioned, make sure to include all relevant information, any questions which you need to add and explain it all as well as you can and make sure it can be understood by other people.
*Once you've made sure your thread is ready to be posted, click Submit and you'll be taken back to the list of threads and you'll see the new thread at the top of the list.
Thanks Button - The thanks button is there so we can click that, rather than posting "Thanks" whenever someone helps us out.
To locate the Thanks button, click on a comment and the following menu will show up :-
Simply click on the Thanks button and voila!
The screenshot above had some other useful stuff in aswell.
*Reply - Click this to simply post in the thread.
*Quote - If you want to reply to a specific post, click Quote and it will show their message on with your own. The other person then knows exactly who you're speaking to.
*Multi - The same as Quote but can be used if you want to reply to numerous people in a single post.
*Share - This is so you can share the post/thread to your favorite social network sites, through a text message or even share it across Bluetooth.
*More - This option has a few more options to give you. By clicking More, you can send the user a message or view their profile, you can copy the info of the whole post or just a link to that post and you can also open the post in your web browser.
Sending a PM - At some point on this site you may feel the need to send someone a PM but don't know how to.
Follow these steps and you'll be sending messages in no time.
The first way of doing this is to go to the PM tab, start a new PM and type in the persons username (as shown below)
If you want to send the same PM to multiple users, then after each username but a ";".
Another method is to click on the users display picture and it'll take you to their profile.
Then click on -
Reporting - Unfortunately, we can no longer report a users posts via the app. What we must do instead, is click on the users comment, click on More and then click on Open In Web Browser. From there, follow the guide Getting A Moderators Help.
Posting pictures - If at any point you wish to upload a photo into a thread, click on the camera icon when you're in the comment box and you'll get an option to upload from either Gallery or take a pic straight from your Camera.
As you can see from the pic above, you'll then get the options 'Tapatalk Hosted' which means you can actually have the picture mixed in with your writing (how I have in this thread). Or if you choose 'This Forum' it will pin the picture to the bottom of your post as an attachment.
Using an Image Host - Sometimes while trying to upload a picture on XDA, you will discover that the picture you've just uploaded (using the method above) shows up as an error and will just keep loading. This will be because there's an error in the system somewhere.
Instead of it putting you off uploading a picture, you can always use an Image Host app such as Imgur. What this app allows you to do is to upload the picture to that app and then Imgur will be able to host the file instead. It can then be displayed on xda by using certain BBCode.
Subscribing to Forums & Topics - If you're constantly looking through a specific forum or you're in a particular topic quite a lot of the time, you'll probably want to subscribe to the forum/topic so you've got easier access to view it.
This will explain how to do just that.
Let's say, for example, that you'd like to subscribe to the entire 'About xda-developers.com' forum. All you have to do is navigate to that forum and simply long press on the forum itself.
You'll then see the following pop-up.
As you can see, you're presented with 3 options.
*You can Create a Shortcut so you can have instant access to the forum directly from your homescreen.
*You can Mark the Forum as Read, so it will be as if you have read every single topic in that forum.
*And you can Subscribe to the forum. If you choose this option you are brought to the following screen where you can choose how often you'd like to be notified of changes via email.
Subscribing to a certain topic is exactly the same.
Simply long press on a topic to be given the option to Subscribe or Share.
To unsubscribe from a topic or forum, simply long press again and you'll get a pop-up with the options to Unsubscribe and Change Notification Type aswell as the previous options to Mark as Read and Create Shortcut.

Why are you advertising paid apps
This goes into the paid apps section
Oh yeah don't use tapatalk
This happens :

Lol I'm kidding
And don't for get to mention xda premium hd
This doesn't go in the Paid Apps section because it's a guide for the XDA app. So this is the best section for it.

Nice guide! Wish this was there when I joined XDA because I only use the app.

You should mention that there is a limit on the amount of pics you can post with the app,I think it's the same as tapatalk. 30 hosted pics unless you pay the premium for unlimited pics and I don't think you can post pics from the free app

If you subscribe to threads/forums on the desktop version, then they'll show up across any of your devices. They won't automatically sync just by favoriting them on the app though.

I was just able to upload a pic from the free version.
I just had to make sure to upload to forum instead, so it just puts it as an attachment.
It's a problem on Tapatalk's side that stops a normal upload working.
P.S. I've added some things into the guide and added a thread changelog to post #3 so you can all easily see what I've changed and when
Remember to let me know if I've missed anything out.

Little tip re pics. If its a new post, you can upload it, if you try to upload when editing, it won't work.
Thanks. This seems very useful.
thanks for the write up & everyone please donate!
I am not sure if the android app (I am using the premium app) is taking a different path than the XDA website... but there are things that are different between them and it is making it very difficult and confusing to seamlessly move from the app to the website, or back.
On the app, there is a sidebar with, among other items, a line that says "Subscriptions" followed by number in parentheses. Above that line there is a line/option for "Participated" .
If you select "Subscriptions", and you will get a list of Forums and Subforums you have subscribed to. It is easy to "Subscribe" to a forum (or subforum), as the dropdown menu has an option to Subscribe.
Before continuing, this is how I see the logical breakdown of forums, subforums and threads:
Forum (example HTC ONE (or VERIZON HTC ONE if it exists)) ==>
Subforum(example: HTC ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting) ==>Thread(example: Help! I bricked my phone!!!).
In the app, when you select "Participated" you are presented with every thread in which you have added a comment.
However, on the website, when I navigate to the forum (not a subforum) and I want to "Subscribe" to it, I cannot find any way to do so on that page (the main forum page). I notice however, that if you go to one a subforums (see example above), you have the option there to subscribe to that subforum. However, like the app, I would like to have quick access to all subforums for a particular device.
I have "subscribed" to them from the mobile app, but they are not showing up once I am at my laptop... the only subscriptions that appear anywhere (without having to go to a dedicated page with subscibed threads, etc.) is in the right sidebar under the three tabs entitled "MESSAGES THREADS FORUMS." Here (for me) it shows I am subscribed to one subforum that I accidentally subscribed to 3 years ago (from the app I believe). The app too, correctly shows I am subscribed to this subforum. But there is no where on the website that shows the Forums I am subscribed—which the app does (as described above).
With the number of forums for devices growing to several hundred why is there not just a way to create a bookmark to go directly to the forum that you have already added as a subscribed forum/a favorite??? I swear I think every time I have come to this webpage I have to navigate down past 90 devices to find the forum I want (google XDA XYZ Device works, but there should be a way on the forum landing page). A way to find "bookmarked' forums. I use the work bookmark" because using the word "subscribe" with "forum" is actually confusing. You already have an option to subscribe to a thread on the website (and the app). And further, a subscription to a thread will send you email updates when there have been new comments to that thread. However, you do not need email notifications to a forum, nor even a subforum... you just need a quick way to navigate to them.
Further confusing the "thread subscription" component of "subscribing" is that now the app has "Participated" (as mentioned above) which I find helpful as no action is required; it automatically allows you to quickly find a thread where you have contributed or asked a question. But this is not available (or easily locatable) on the website....
Can we get the ability to create a favorite or a bookmark to a Forum or Subforum?
I understand that subscribing to threads still makes sense as people may want to be notified or have quick access to a thread which is being updated, but in which they have not made a comment. I think we just need to add a new category to "favorite" or "bookmark" a forum or subforum, and then have threads subscribed to, and threads in which we have participated.
I think in the past few years (and you guys would know!) more people use the app than before... So I think by modifying things as set forth above, it will allow increased usability of XDA overall. XDA has always had to manage and structure/organize a huge amount of information... and I have always found it quite difficult.. Only recently with the options have I noticed more productivity (although I cannot say for certain how "recent" these changes are....
Either way, I hope you can make the app and the site consistent... and preferably let the app's above-mentioned features lead the way.
Thank you...

Wow, that's a lot of questions!
I definitely won't be able to answer them all at once, so I will just answer the ones I can.
1. In answer to the question "Where are the Participated threads on the website?", just do [your_username's_profile] > Statistics > See all posts by [your_username]. It does essentially the same thing as Participated does in the app.
EDIT- More answers to come... when and if I have time!
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.

KNOWN ISSUES as of 12/3 (we're working on these!):
Some threads/posts may be missing. We imported missing threads, some first posts missing still.
Need to launch new XDA app asap. All current apps are broken like Tapatalk and XDA app. Use the browser instead for now plz (update: 12/7-8/20 target launch)
In-thread search not working (update: 12/4/20 should be fixed)
More stuff (we're reading every post!)
======================
For login issues... use the "Forgot password" to reset your password. If you do not know your email address or it is no longer active, we will work on a way of getting access restored.
If Google login does not work, you can reset your password and reassociate (called "Connect Account") your Google account to allow login.
======================
We're excited to welcome you to the new version of the XDA Forums, which is now based on XenForo software instead of vBulletin. If you're not familiar, XenForo is a modern forum platform with a focus on speed, sharing, and overall fluidity. TLDR: we long ago outgrew vBulletin and we wanted to make a huge upgrade.
Things are different! We know it will take some time for everyone to adjust to the new forums, and we ask for your patience as we work out bugs and issues to make the XDA 2021 forums as familiar as possible. One fun thing to try: change templates in the bottom left corner. We have a few to choose from and might add more. Whether you like a dark or light look, or if you want to see classic XDA colors from a decade ago , we have you covered.
Use this thread to report bugs or ask questions. Our partner firm, Audentio, which designed the forums, might respond on our behalf within this thread.
Thank you for your continued support of XDA, and we hope you enjoy XDA 2021! ✌

Known Bugs/Regressions:
Some posts (former DevDB OPs, at least) can't be edited unless user disables the WYSIWYG editor and uses BBCODE instead. Fixed 12/09 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/welcome-to-xda-2021.4197018/page-115#post-84076621
All users have enforced signature length and link limits, which should be higher/removed, at least for advanced forum users. Fixed 12/20 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/welcome-to-xda-2021.4197018/page-135#post-84140273 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/welcome-to-xda-2021.4197018/page-135#post-84141915
Advanced forum user max title length is too short, truncating them (e.g. "Senior Recognized Developer / Recognized Contribut").
Long forum names are truncated (e.g. "Android Software and Hacking General [Developers O").
Thanks/Likes counts are reduced for most users, sometimes dramatically, seemingly from Aug 29 - Dec 2; possibly related to (7).
Various old forum emojis aren't mapped to new unicode ones, and ones in old posts that do exist (e.g. :cowboy:) don't display.
Some users have reported their OPs and/or attachments reverting to older versions; possibly related to (1). Fixed 12/09 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/welcome-to-xda-2021.4197018/page-115#post-84076621
Broken redirects from old links for many threads/posts.
Disabling Alert in Preferences forces Mobile App Push enabled, one should be able to disable both.
Users who were Senior Members are now only Members, as though the threshold is different. Fixed 12/09 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/welcome-to-xda-2021.4197018/page-115#post-84076615

Excited to be on a new platform!
What's your favorite theme? Mine is kind of Classic!
Site is very slow.
What is the equivalent of usercp now?
So SLOW it is unusable. Worthless. Seriously, worthless.

I know you guys are probably still working out the bugs, but so far the forum is super slow. It take 20 to 30 seconds to load a page. And yes, my Internet works fine with all other sites at the same time so I know it's not my computer, browser or Internet connection.
Also, for some reason, I can't load page 2 of threads and it seems like some recent posts were not migrated over?
Question. What's this mean for the XDA Android app? Not able to login at the moment. Plans for updating it I take it?
Where is the Search Thread box? I used it all the time! Edit: When using the top of page Search box here is a drop-down menu option to search this thread but it's no working. Edit 2: It has been fixed!
How can you add a title to a post since Advanced is gone?
No option to not include your signature in some posts & in others not like in Advanced before the migration?
Most Thanked posts in the thread (liked) in the right sidebar is gone?

Hopefully the site is still settling in after the migration. I know this can take time. Looking forward to continue here on the new platform and hope all the great experiences of old times remain the same and new ones are added.
I would second the earlier comment about the site being slow but again i probably answered my own question in the first sentence i typed.
it's slow, but the cost of change need some time, imagine you are merge years to a new platform..
it's not easy for sure, and can't be done in one day.
I assume that everyone can already tell but it really is very slow. I hope that it can be fixed!
This is dreadfully slow, 20-30+ seconds to load a single page.
Trying to go to the *last* page of a thread causes it to continuously go to the first page of the thread, and "jump to new" is even more broken, listing "recent" posts but labeling each one as "#1" and then mixing in "first page" posts as well.
Evident for me on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...oid-auto-use-torque-with-androidauto.3657805/
Update: while we're back online, we know the forums are slow. We're actively working to fix some database issues that are causing the slowness. Thanks for your patience.
The site looks great! Thank you for all your hard work on this! I am sure you will get all the bugs worked out soon
Small bug: It seems I can no longer moderate my XDA Community App forum. Is this on the list of things to fix?

You should try the UI before asking, on top right of OP you will see few dots, click that to expand menu and tap edit thread and then you will be able to edit the title. I am finding my way around too.
Oops! We ran into some problems.
I can't log in to xda's Android app, which prompts me for the wrong password, but I can log in to the web, although it's very slow.
