Description
The Frequently Asked Questions need to be edited, because some parts aren't exact or no longer valid.
How do I create a new topic or post a reply?
To post a new topic in a forum, click "New Topic". To post a reply to a topic, click "Post Reply". You may need to register before you can post a message. A list of your permissions in each forum is available at the bottom of the forum and topic screens. Example: You can post new topics, You can post attachments, etc.
The permissions list isn't included in viewtopic_body.html, therefore the permissions aren't displayed at the bottom of topic screens. In fact, prosilver has never displayed the list there, only subsilver2 did. Either prosilver should list the permissions at the bottom of topic pages or edit the FAQ.
How do I prevent my username appearing in the online user listings?
Within your User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”, you will find the option Hide your online status. Enable this option and you will only appear to the administrators, moderators and yourself. You will be counted as a hidden user.
The option is "Hide my online status" (sure, it's a trivial error, but it's still an error)
What is the difference between bookmarking and subscribing?
In phpBB 3.0, bookmarking topics worked much like bookmarking in a web browser. You were not alerted when there was an update. As of phpBB 3.1, bookmarking is more like subscribing to a topic. You can be notified when a bookmarked topic is updated. Subscribing, however, will notify you when there is an update to a topic or forum on the board. Notification options for bookmarks and subscriptions can be configured in the User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”.
Perhaps the part "As of phpBB 3.1" should be changed... the current version is phpBB 3.3
