I could find no other answers to this question except one in a Samnsung Galaxy thread, and that didn't help.
I did notice there was one other question on this topic... But it was submitted by me almost 8 months ago. In response to that post, I received a response similar to one you would expect from a bloated government—a moderator instructing me—not a brief sentence as to what should be a simple answer—but instructions on how to create more post clutter.
OK.... So how do I subscribe to a forum using the website??? It is very easy and intuitive on the mobile app.
Here is a screenshot of my screen in Google Chrome.

I must be blind, but I can find nothing.... under any option or tab or anywhere (at least not obvious in any way) on how to subscribe to the forum I am in.
One suggestion if I may... since this data is so easily discoverable in the mobile app (it shows me what forums I am subscribed to), can't you take that data for that user and apply it to the website???? It would seem very logical and efficient.
Please advise....and I am hoping I can find my way back here....
@syntropic,
Since I use the XDA 2013 Beta - 1024 theme, these instructions use it.
To subscribe to a thread, first, scroll down to the bottom of any XDA page and click on the Style Chooser found in the left-hand corner. Click "XDA 2013 Beta - 1024". Now, navigate to the thread to which you would like to subscribe, and look for the "Subscribe to thread" button as shown in this screenshot:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

yes, how do we subscribe to a forum. Not a thread.

Click the subscribe to forum button
Thanks, I see it on the general forum. However it's not enabled on every subforum, such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lg-leon/lg-leon. Our only option is using the RSS feed in the pages source code. Subforums without the "subscribe" button also do not have their own rss feed.
I also tried to modify the subscribe link but it goes to a different subforum. 1507 is the lg leon forum id, but this shows something else:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/subscription.php?do=addsubscription&f=1507
It looks like our only option is page2rss.com. This has me wondering if vbulletin gets paid a fee for every rss feed and subscribe button.

Hello there!
I have a small suggestion to help minimize duplicate threads.
This is especially prevalent in the HD2 forum where every day people make new threads about Android on HD2 (which, I am guilty of doing too...my apologies )
So, on some other vBulletin boards in which I am a member, they have a great feature.
When someone is creating a new thread and puts in the thread title, the board displays previous threads that have similar titles. I really think it is necessary to have that functionality in here too.
Just my 2c
Thanks for reading!
It's one I have suggested a few times before, but I am not sure what vB mod it is.
Any ideas?
Is this it?

Thanks, I'll stick on the admin's list and see what he says
thanks for reading
I hope the admins can realize this, it would be a great feature.

So I looked into this and turned on a plugin that shows related threads at the bottom of each thread page. Two problems with it: 1. It's not that useful 2. It affects sever performance.
If anyone knows of a plugin that will search as you type a new thread title in, that would be great.
Don't know about the real time search (I am not an admin so I don't know the first thing about vBulliten) but here is the screen shot of an example of what I was talking about from the avsforum board in the first post and the relevant plug in:
{
"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"
}
and here is the page for the plug in:
http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=151714
I understand that this plug in is heavy on the server. As such, is it possible to turn it on just for some high activity sub forums?

If you have a problem, how can anyone help, when they don't know, what phone you got, what ROM, What Kernel is installed, what caused the current problem and what you had done to solve it.
All these matters, for an XDA member to even THINK of helping you and they might just ignore, since you could not be bothered to provide the details. Most of all specific phones have specific forums and you should first use the search for that forum or look in the WIKI for that particular Phone, Imagine some one gave you an answer meant for a another phone that is not similar to yours, you could end up spending a lot of time and money trying to recover it. So be wise and do your part, search for your phone in this forum and post it there after you have tried searching for the answers you are seeking in that specific forum.
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.

If you are using XDA App or Tapatalk, long press on the post and select :good: Thanks Its easier to give "Feedback" in this manner than make an additional post.
I'm suggesting to open threads in correct sections and explain the situation thoroughly.
Thread closed.
I am thinking of starting an app for my college. Pretty much I want the app for it to have users or students in this case register make a username and password and then just for it to be forum kind of style where users can create threads and also for it to have a messaging system incase someone is selling a book both users can communicate with each other. the thing is i have no idea where to begin if anyone can show me a step by step or just a summuray on what to do to make this.

Buy domain from namecheap, hosting from dreamhost. Use phpbb as forum software (completely FREE) or vBulletin. Start a web forum, install Tapatalk plugin. Share link.
Tada! No programming at all.

This may sound like a good solution but it becomes complex for the user when they have to use forum software. I am not sure you have can limit functionality with Tapatalk. OP is trying to create an application that is simple and includes his/colleges branding. Another problem is using Tapatalk since it's a generic application and you can't rebrand it for his college or niche group. I know it looks like OP is trying to redesign the wheel but I think he's trying to do it in a way that makes it more efficient and, in a way, more useful for users.
@OP
I am quite new to Android dev and I learning by using "Google: Android developer basics" (I can't post links since I have < 10 posts) I am not sure if it's the best way but I think it would be a good place to start.
Quick one please. Which hosting provider did you choose here if I may ask?

Has anyone actually found a cable that does more than the crappy 40MB/sec.
USB 3.1 Gen 1 is suppost to support speeds up to 5 Gbit/s or 625 megabytes per second (MB/s).
Where is this magical cable that proves that the 7 Pro actually is USB 3.1 GEN1?
Copying to an external Samsung ssd drive (using supplied cable) is proper fast, imho :good:

And now to find a cable with similar specs. The Anker Powerline 2 also Gen 2 does max 40mb/sec.

Use one of our search functions before posting or creating a new thread. Whether you have a question or just something new to share, it's very likely that someone has already asked that question or shared that news.

As a large forum, we don't need unnecessary clutter. You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer, revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time so it might take a while before you receive an answer.
You can bump your unanswered question once every 24 hours
Duplicate threads and posts will be removed
Always post in an existing thread if a topic already exists, before creating a new thread.
Use our search function to find the best forum for your device.

Ever since the new forum came about, I've been getting daily emails from [email protected]. I've tried unsubscribe multiple times, unchecked every box in account settings, and made a ticket request there (seems that request went into a black hole) but I KEEP GETTING THIS SPAM MAIL. It goes straight to my spam box now but seriously, can these things get shut off?

The forums & update to Xenforo are definitely unrelated to the XDA Depot stuff. This is actually a totally separate company. I'll reach out to those here with the relationship to Stackcommerce to see if we can figure out what is going on.
