    Here's the example thread




    I clicked EDIT - GO ADVANCED - Then changed title to "Running Test Thread"



    Then it shows as this inside the thread- after editing title




    And it still shows as this on the forum
    Well.. Sorry I was wrong. Only Admins (maybe mods?) can change thread titles.

    Yep. It's not just me, but other posters as well. So only mods can change a thread title.

    Can anybody give me a quick tip on how you put a permanent GIF? Like what Beard does with that guy taking his last sip of beer then throwing the mug over his shoulder?

    I went to "settings" and saw "picture" & "avitar" but when I go there it shows my Reagan pic and I don't wanna replace that. thanks in advance.

    Pretty sure I've successfully changed the title in the past. Maybe it was the changes that were made to the forum a couple months ago. I'll try again when I get a chance to see if it works using a Mac with Safari.

    How to embed a Tweet - UPDATED

    Well...I just stumbled upon how to fix the issue someone of you might have noticed (or maybe it was just me...and thus why i edited everyones post to "fix it" )..

    Using the Tweet embed command, would leave any text below the tweet or any replies... as a Link to the tweet.
    INSTEAD. Now to link a tweet please do this instead
    Code:
    [..tweet2]Number code of Tweet](anything after status...)[/tweet2]
    an example would be this tweet
    https://twitter.com/jonmachota/statu...75228915384321

    To embed it
    Code:
    [..tweet2]1081675228915384321[/tweet2]
    - remove the ..

    Take the?s=21 off the end or it won't work. Has to be a direct link to the tweet
