Shortcut to Home Folder
OK it's not new info, but surely there's people out there that will find this useful. Who on earth would search for the original hint? People who never considered the possibility? Or people who would know what to search for and therefore already knew the hint?

You have a good point; Just yesturday, I found several useful hints (some as far back as '03) when I was searching to see if some I discovered recently were already posted. But this site is mainly an archive of hints. How do we decide how old a hint can be before duplicating it? Is it for each OS version? Probably most of the hints valid in one OS are valid in the next version, so we would end up with, for example, 500 hints for Tiger, then 400 of those would be duplicated for Leopard plus 500 new ones, then 800 of those would be duplicated for SL plus 500 more new ones... (These #s are purely made up, but I'm sure you see my point.) The site would really need to be redesigned to show old hints that are still valid - maybe have a button on old hints where users can confirm what OS versions they are valid in, and each OS version could have a separate archive for links to old but valid hints? I'm not really sure what the best way to do this would be, but I'd love to hear ideas since I am trying to design a similar site.

How about adding a 'Re-posted' tag to appropriate hints, and putting that check box in the Contents tab of the reader's account pane? |
