Re: HELPFUL TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS...

     

 

          I wanted to add this info to update the thread I started a year ago about formatting our siggies.

 

          Here's some basic info about formatting the signature line. 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

          To italicize, precede the signature with <em> and end it with </em>.


~~~~~~~~~~~~


           If you want the signature in bold, precede it with <b>  and add </b> at the end.


~~~~~~~~~~~~

          If you want the signature in colors, precede the signature with

 

<font color="nameofcolor">


and fill in the color's actual name between those quotation marks.


Here's a link to all the color names:

~~~~~~~~~~

 

 As an example, my signature -- in my settings -- is (as of today, 7/20/16):

 

<font color="steelblue"><em><b>~★You don't have to disrespect and insult others to hold your own ground. If you do, that shows how shaky your own position is. (Red Haircrow)★~</b></em></font>

Re: HELPFUL TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS...

 

 

          I've seen lots of questions about the "heart" feature recently, so I hope this answers a few questions.

 

          When you "heart" a post, the heart icon changes from red to a light shade of gray and the number next to it will increase by one.   (They're all red if you're not signed in, by the way.)   If you click it again, that causes it to "un-heart," and it returns to red.

 

          Sometimes it appears that clicking/tapping on the heart icon didn't work.   Try slightly scrolling up or down the page, to see if that causes it to change from red to gray.

 

 

          If you're not logged in and you tap/click on a red heart, the system will redirect you to the sign-in page.  After you fill in the login info, the site returns you to the post you hearted.  

   

 

          If you want to see which posts you "hearted," click on your nickname.   You'll be directed to your profile page.   Look on the left side of that screen and scroll down until you see the heading "Hearts Given To."   You'll see a few nicknames, and below those you can click on the words "View All" if you want to see all the posters/posts you've "hearted." 

 

 

          If you don't see the hearts at all, after signing in, you need to check your settings.   On the left side of any page, choose "Edit My Preferences."  Under "Preference Options," click/tap the word "Hearts" in the list.   If you've checked the box next to "Hide Hearts buttons and counts" you won't see them when you're logged in.  The box needs to be unchecked if you want to use and see this feature.

 

          (If you change any settings, always be sure to click SAVE at the bottom of the screen.)

 

 

hth!  I know it can be confusing at times.
