Hello!

Since we're getting a lot of support topics being posted lately in this section, I thought I'd make a guideline for newbies to follow when they want to post a new topic since some support topics are poorly written with little to no information at all about their problem.

1. The title.

The title of your topic is very important! It's the title which makes others users visit your topic to help so if your topic doesn't have a catchy title then nobody will be interested in clicking it.

The title should contain the problem you're having in a short sentence so you can type in the full problem on the topic content.

A good title will look something like this:

or like this:


2. The content of your topic.

The content is as much important as the title. You should explain everything with details and also include your iOS Version, your iDevice & if you're Jailbroken or not.

The content should explain the problem you mentioned in the title. So for example if your topic title is "iFile won't show up on my Springboard after installing", your post should look like this:


Hi friends,

I'm having a problem with iFile right now. Today, I've installed it on my jailbroken iPhone 5S (iOS 8.1), and I tried to install iFile using many sources on Cydia, but in each case, after I install it and reboot my iPhone I can't find iFile on my springboard. It's invisible, but when I head back to Cydia, it shows iFile as installed. What Should I do?

Thank you!



Notice how we stated our iDevice, iOS Version and whether we're jailbroken or not? We also explained what we did once we installed iFile and what happened after we installed it. That's very useful information for the person who is looking to help you!

Adding screenshots to the topic is very useful also but don't just add a screenshot and no text at all. You can mention the problem in text and add a screenshot to back it up if you want.

 

Note: Do not just post images of your code/errors. You should copy the error output and paste it inside your help topic. If you can't copy it, type it down or read the other pinned topic found in this section. 

 

 

3. Marking an answer as solved.

Once you get replies to your problem or question, don't forget to click the 'Mark as Solved' button under the author's post if their reply helped you with your problem or question.


That's pretty much it!
