Hi I was wondering if there is a way to remove a comment or a thread that I have made on https://ideas.splunk.com. My idea was already published in the V.8.1.  And in the comment section there was some information that should not have been there. Is it possible to remove? I wil not post the link here in public.

I am curious if it is possible to set a signature here in the community.  I do see some posts which appear to have a signature on each post, but for me I do not appear to have the ability to set one.  Am I looking in the right place, or are people just appending a "signature" manually to each post?

so, i click on a profile id to see more details about that user.. but what i get is simply a small popup box which says "View Profile".  is this necessary?!?! i think, when we click on the id, simply it should take us to the "view profile" link, instead of a popup and one more click.. you get my point, right...   Best Regards, Sekar

Hi,  After posting a question I learned that the underlying behaviour lies with an internal application and not is not a Splunk problem. The error messages noted in my question also came from this internal application. This means that the question I posted will only cause confusion for the community. How can I ask for it to be removed? Regards, Marc The question in question is https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Misconfigured-search-not-forwarding-events/m-p/519691#M146364

I continue to receive email notifications that my replies have been accepted even though I've disabled them.  I disabled them days ago so it's not matter of the setting not taking effect. BTW, why is this setting a checkbox and not a dropdown selection like the others?
I've asked a lot of questions on Splunk Answers before, but I'm having trouble finding them. Is there a good way to do this? I can't find my question by searching by user name.
Hello, could you fix this Community area, everyday I need to login and if I post a comment, login then it doesn't redirect me to the post. For this, Answers was much more convenient. Thanks.

Posts appear to now be interpreted as markdown, so there are lots of instances of broken answers since not everyone properly uses code tags. For example, if I had posted an unformatted props.conf on the old site, it now looks like: [sample] INDEXEDEXTRACTIONS = csv SHOULDLINEMERGE = False TIMEFORMAT = %Y%m%d TIMEPREFIX = ^ MAXTIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 8 MAXDAYS_AGO=10000s Real example of SPL being mangled: https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/SAI-Windows-entity-does-not-show-up/m-p/480674/highlight/true#M59093

It takes time to accept changes but I'm not a fan of the new look/feel Way too much whitespace Fonts are too large Answer and reply format structure is gone Much harder to visually parse the information in posts Forcing structure to questions is good in theory until you try to use it in practice/find answers. What about people who want to answer questions? I'm guessing they have to browse through 20 +/- locations? The search feature doesn't work anndddd you have to use only predefined labels. I'm guessing those are largely unique for each location /sigh When the page opened from my Google search I literally thought I was on a generic site that had screen scrapped the Answers pages.  Please reassess. This is not great UX.
I've subscribed to people who have been answering questions I never thought of before. What should I do with the new site?

Hi, I want to close and delete my Splunk account. I do not have a phone number in any of the countries with customer support, and I am not willing to make an international phone call just to close an account that I never used... Could you please point me out a way to delete the account, as guaranteed by GDPR? Thanks in advance.

Hi. I've tried contacting Splunk Sales on a number of occasions over a 2 month period. Tried emails to their email address (US and AU), contact forms, phone calls leaving voicemails. All to no avail. I received one response last year saying "we apologise someone will contact you within 24 hours" and about 7 follow ups to that person in email and CC'ed to their US and AU sales teams, never another response. Out of all companies I've dealt with in over 25 years of IT, Splunk Sales is the worst of the worst. I'm not hear to criticise, I just want a rep to contact me so I can go through what solutions best fit our needs, plain and simple. The Splunk sales team seem to be experts in elusiveness. What I don't get is how anyone in a commercial business with shareholders refuse sales? If someone could advise how to wave a magic wand and get them to respond, please advise. Otherwise, maybe a reseller?
