Is there a way to change auto signature to sync with CB??
- Guys, is there a way to change the auto signature on my Berry when posting to CB?? Instead of it saying sent from my crackberry, is there a way that it can sync with the auto signature that you already have set up with CB??

annoyances with using WAP.08-30-08 10:56 PMLike 0 -

Post header could look like this:
Apollo_Creed 05:04 AM Today -- [Reply] [!!]
Model:xxxx Carrier:xxxxxxxxxx PIN:xxxxxx
Post content here
2 or 3 line text + URL capable signature.

To clarify about the sig, I don't want to see sigs in the wap view, I just want non-wap users to be able to see mine when I post from wap, so that I can refer to the links in it.08-31-08 06:42 AMLike 0
- All interesting points . What about editing your posts on wap. There is an option to do this but for me when I click on it only the first line of my original message shows and there is no button at the bottom to save . ?
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com08-31-08 06:51 AMLike 0 - jeffhRetired ModeratorWhen I click edit, I get a one line title box, followed by a full size text entry box with a save button at the bottom. Are you using the BlackBerry Browser with all the configuration boxes checked, including Support for Style Sheets? Support for Style Sheets is required for the wap pages to display properly.

- Looks like I did a little stirring with that question. Not much, but a little though. I'm like Jeff H for the most part on letting people be able to refer to the links or refer to your links while making a post from WAP. Some people, myself included, have some very educational links to share but unless you're posting from your home pc, no one will ever see them.

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com08-31-08 11:00 AMLike 0 - Stoneryno, thanks for confirming you are having the same issues
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com08-31-08 11:12 AMLike 0 - Ok I just tweaked the Emulation mode settings and I can now edit posts with no issues. Emulation mode was set to Blackberry and I changed it to Openwave wap
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com08-31-08 11:24 AMLike 0 - Interesting, I wonder what effect that has on general use of the browser.
EDIT: in fact I just realized I had mine set to MS IE from a test to see if another page would render different and I can edit and quote reply. So perhaps it is just the BB mode for that setting that is causing it.

08-31-08 11:39 AMLike 0 - Right I thought I would test again with the Emulation mode set to Blackberry. Low and behold when I select Edit I now have all the original text viewable along with a save button at the bottom as well as option to delete the post. All seems to be well

Many of us DO have computers & a phone is supposed to be simplistic.
Many of the links contained in most signatures can be found right here on the site anyway.
And quite honestly, I dont want to rely on a signature in someone's post from my phone. I prefer the bigger screen of my computer and chances are, if I am having a problem with my phone and have to read other stuff to get it fixed, how am I helping myself fixing AND reading from the same place.
I mean really, who has that kind of time and think of the confusion; esp the confusion a new person would experience from trying to do it this way.
Also, not naming any names so if you feel this is about you, then thats your personal cross to bear; I dont feel that my knowledge is so profound that I have got to be the person someone feels so inclined to click on a link in my signature from wap.
The purpose of wap is quick access. Thank God I dont have to rely on a phone for all my computing needs!08-31-08 11:55 AMLike 0 - jeffhRetired Moderator

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com08-31-08 03:24 PMLike 0 - amazinglygracelessRetired ModSomehow I think this went a bit off track. The OP's issue I think
was to get rid of "Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com".
I would like to not have my WAP posts appended with that also.
The actual threads referenced in a members sig is nice but really
would make WAP even more cumbersome and cluttered than it is IMO.08-31-08 04:22 PMLike 0 - I'm afraid my misinterpretation of the OP got the offtrack part. But yes I would, from the regular version of the forum, like to see posts made from the WAP have the members profile signatures rather than the posted from WAP.
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com08-31-08 11:16 PMLike 0 - amazinglygracelessRetired ModStoneryno, I completely agree with seeing the profile info. It
would be very helpful when dealing with an issue if that were
visible. The default sig is annoying to me because I NEVER refer
to my phone as "my CrackBerry" or "berry". And where I am posting
is almost completely irrelevant.Last edited by amazinglygraceless; 08-31-08 at 11:38 PM.

Now, when I originally posted this, no I do not want to see everyones signature via wap first and foremost. I was trying to find out if there was a way that we can post to CB from our Berry and members who use their pc would see the auto signature as if we had posted from our PC even though it came from our Berries. Yes, thank God I don't have to rely on my Berry for all my computing needs either!!!

With ALL the people who use the same links via PC, why is it necessary to have the same links via wap. I still stand by my assertion that if I am on my phone seeking help, chances of me getting clear cut answers while trying to fix my phone at the same time are going to be right up there like a nightmare on Elm st.
It's bad enough when people are trying to keep up with links on a PC. The BB is a phone first with web access. And frankly, the information contained in many of these links is time consuming at best to fully take in.
I'd go to h377 before reading the optimization guide on my phone.08-31-08 11:40 PMLike 0
