Troubleshooting troubleshooting — where to start?

Something is not behaving and I am not sure where to begin. What should I check first, and what information would help others help me?

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Short answer: yes, and here is the supported path.

  1. Open the relevant settings panel.
  2. Make the change there rather than editing files.
  3. Save, then reload to confirm.

Doing it this way means your change survives updates. Hand-editing files does not.

Strong agree. Good defaults beat a wall of toggles every single time.

Solid breakdown. The only thing I would add is to back up before making the change — better safe than sorry.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.
