Getting the most out of this forum

Karen A. Thomas

Here are some tips and tricks for using this forum:

• Use the reactions. These let you share how you feel about other’s comments. The most liked content shows up on the Best Of page.
• Mention others. Put an @ symbol before the username to mention someone. They’ll get notified when you do.
• Update your notification preferences. You’ll receive a notification if someone mentions you or posts to a discussion that you’ve bookmarked. You can set notifications from the Edit Profile page.
• Send messages. You can private message members by going to your inbox, or visiting their profile page (click their username anywhere).
• Don’t want to see everyone’s signature? You can hide signatures by going to Edit Profile > Signature Settings.
• Check out the forum from your mobile phone. Just go to the forum URL in your browser - no need to download an app.
• Want to embed a YouTube video, a Pinterest Pin or a Tweet? Just paste in the link. Vanilla will handle the embedding for you!
• Check out what’s going on with other community members on the Activity page.

Have fun!
