Please read before you post - IriDium - 23rd Nov, 2013 02:34 AM

As Xbian is becoming the most popular Media Centre for the RPi, I've noticed a lot more new users who don't seem to grasp the reason for the "Please read before you post" offering.

I was wondering if it would be possible when creating a new thread, to show a "pop up" box asking if they have read the aforesaid article? Obviously, you'd need to check if they have posted before, so only those with posts=0 are offered it.

They may ignore it, but many might not, and thus will provide the necessary information required.

Just a thought - if it's possible, great - if not then I'll only torture 3 defenceless puppies Big Grin

Wow - That was fast - maybe we'll see a few more well documented problems. Ideally, I'd like to see no problems, but alas I live in a real world with real ID Ten Ts.

The Puppies are safe...... for now Big Grin
