We have a Tutorial Database on LTXTech. Granted, we don't have the member volume that this place has, but everything is contained in that database. You can search only the database, so you don't get random threads that aren't really relevant. Everything goes through a moderation process and can be approved or denied. You can take a look to get an idea, it's definitely possible.

There is some weird glitch with our quote boxes, it can be fixed I just haven't ever looked into it.

I think it's a great idea. Common now, there really isn't THAT many how-to's on this site. There is some good ones and it would be best if there was a central place for them. I really like the A&D sticky that has a list of how-to's in it. I've been on the site for a couple of years and still think the search sucks. When it is working (like it has been for awhile now) it sometimes pulls useless crap and makes it even harder to find what your looking for. Sometimes it's faster to scroll through five pages then use the search. Hell for most of the how-to's people suggest going to LS1 How To or Install University.

I think the first place to start would be getting a list of what people would want in the how-to thread. Any suggestions?

Just stumbled on this thread... after making a howto thread:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/general-l...l#post12619039

Not sure if I put it in the right section, so feel free to move it around mods. Oh, and also feel free to PM me the links to some quality how to's. I'd prefer to have them PMd so i can add them instead of them being thrown in the posts on page 35.

Enjoy!
