I'm having trouble trying to use the strike through text tag here at Serebii.forums, and it's not included in the facts about normally used text tags. What's the proper way to do it, and can the input be updated in the facts for future reference? Thanks Serebii Staff!

Try
[*s]text[/*s]

without the * Should result in

text

I made a thread under the General Pokémon Discussion: asking about what other cool/unique pokemon websites are out there and it disappeared, why? and how to I get it back?
thanks.

I'm not a mod, but my guess is it was deleted because that's more of a question for the General Chat Thread more than it is worthy of having its own thread.

How to you do the text thing where there's a line through your text? Seriously how? I checked every option but I can't figure it out.

there was a bit more to it, would like to see it though, it had a few replies.

You use the [*s] BB code. So you put [*s]text[/s] without the asterisk and you'll get text

That's a question for the subforum/thread mod who deleted it then

 

[Pandarama]

Can anyone tell me how to delete an attachment from one of my posts? I've tried 'manage attachments' in the advanced edit settings, but there doesn't seem to be a delete option. Am I in the right place?

Found it under profile settings! : )

 

[shinykyurem0]

Sorry guys. I made this account ages ago, but want to delete it and create a new one. How do i do that?

 

[VampirateMace]

We don't delete accounts, or allow multiple accounts, if you want a name change you'll have to wait until the name change thread opens in April.

 

[Lord Fighting]

Why are loads of threads which were created like 10 years ago still open? Just looking through the fan art shops for example and there's 82 pages of shops. There's probably about 5 or so pages of actual active shops so why don't all the others get closed? (as in close the thread) It's a rule break to post in a thread after 30 days of inactivity in that thread so it's basically just sitting there never to be used again...

 

[Jb]

I don't mods want to keep track of every thread that's 30 day+ old. Also that there are sometimes exceptions that'll allow someone to bump their thread and such.

 

[bobandbill]

To add to that, some sections have exceptions to the bumping rule, like in fics where the author can post new updates regardless of time. But I do realise that's not the case with art shops.

But yeah, there's no easy way to track when a thread is past 30 days with no posts. The only way is to actually check the last post date of each thread individually, and bumping isn't such a common problem to require that imo.

So how do you obtain posts? (sorry if this is the wrong place to ask) ^_^;

...By posting in threads. Certain sections, such as Pokepolls, do not add to your post count, though.

 

[DemonCode]

Oh,and I have to have 10 to post links right? Like the one i want to put in my sig doesnt work

 

[shinymankey]

I feel a little dumb asking this, but I haven't been on in like a year.
I have no idea how to change my signature. I don't know if it was locked or something. But I just want to know how to change it.
It still has my fourth gen stuff on it, and I really just want to get rid of it.

Thank you!

Settings > Edit Signature

 

[DemonCode]

So for my some reason I can use links in a message but not my sig. How come?

I think it's because you didn't have 10 posts at the time you posted this.
