New Category: "Tips & Tricks"

[famousmag]

Hey guys,

We have the "How To" category that is very specific and oriented to a specific workaround solution.

I would really like to have a category "Tips & Tricks".
It will be there for various techniques on AppConnect, ServerConnect and even mixed procedures...
There we could post successful/effective ways of doing/handling tasks so all the others could have a brief and to the point idea and choose what is appropriate for their needs.

Just an idea...
Cheers

There's another topic about this, we discussed a similar topic:

If a solution is given... Should be tagged as solution

Wappler General is for general discussions. Wappler General > How To (to be renamed to I Need Help or I Have a Question) is the place to ask questions and receive solutions. It's not that hard to post in the correct category And i see a lot of people not really caring about this, posting in Uncategorized ...

maybe we should rename How To to something like I Need Help and create a new Tips and Tricks category.

I think that "how to" is good for what I have seen in here to usually the users pick it...
I mean if I have a problem how to do "problem A" or "the other problem" I post under "how to".
(I have forgotten to declare something and getting an issue, I'm refering to a appconnect variable inside a js function and there is an error and things like that)

If somebody have a certain technique on anything could be posted under "Tips & Tricks"
I mean about a javascript counter, a ncustom html element and anything else (I'm on mobile and difficult to share examples now...)

The way I see it the "how to" means "I NEEF HELP ON THIS PROBLEM/TASK"...
But the "Tips & Tricks" means "I HAVE THIS WORKING NICE SMOOTH, try itif you need something similar"
If I'm wrong I or You can delete my topic. .. No need for invalid/mistaken references

This was only after a previous discussion and Ambassadors like me or moderators move the topic's category - untrained users don't instinctively select the "How To" category, it should be renamed to "Help" or something.

Once you move enough topics for a given user, the user usually learns to post the topic in the correct category

The How To category is now called Need Help.
I think this new title is more obvious for the users looking for help.

Not sure about that

A new Tips and Tricks category is now available also:
