howto's on the tips'n'tricks forum

[louis_nichols]

Hi! I'd like to know whether new threads on the tips'n'tricks forum need approval from admins before showing there. I just wrote one and clicked submit and it's not there. I may have done something wrong, in which case I should rewrite it, but if it's just waiting for an approval, than I shouldn't do this. that's y I'm asking

Yes, once approved it will show up.

[louis_nichols]

ok. thank you.

[louis_nichols]

do you know how long it might take? I'm pretty anxious, because it's my first one ever. :)

A fairly good amount of time..

Just wait it out and keep checking ;D it takes a while..

They usually happen fairly quickly - as long as it's not a holiday season. We've had some technical troubles in the last month or so that made it difficult to work with the approval queue - but those errors have been resolved. :)

Thank you for writing a howto! :)

Thanks for the replies. The howto is indeed visible now. And I have some more comin' :D

silly thing... I wrote a howto and just realised that I would like to modify it a little. Is there any way to edit it before it is approved on the forum? After approval would be ok, but before, even better :D
