Editing Couchsurfing (section)

==Unofficial technical tips and tricks for CS==
===Delete your CS group posts===
* There is an [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/couchsurfing-extension/ addon or firefox] for hiding posts via the "my group post pages". It's a radical resolution, but unlike the description said it's no real deletion, it makes use of the CS function to hide posts. So every post can be restored manually (and by CS-admins). If the post is an initial one, it is also hidden from the list of posts on the group page.

===CS Data backup===
* [http://couchwiki.org/en/File:Backup_messages.sh backup_messages.sh]: UNIX shell script for making a backup of a user's CouchSurfing messages. See the top of the script for usage instructions.

===Protect your picture rights===
* Upload only a useless 1px by 1py image and use the caption field for a html image-tag to include a pictures hosted somewhere else. As this pictures isn't uploaded to CS you don't have to agree with the terms of use regarding the upload of images. More info [http://www.couchsurfing.org/group_read.html?gid=7621&post=11166431 here].
