Need some help getting things to work...

Jump to solution

I have to leave for work but I wanted to check blogs and do the daily pledge first as well as ride the train...I am getting no notifications of blogs and I cannot figure out how to comment on anything, there doesn't seem to be an option.  I am sure it's an "easy" tweak but so far it eludes me and, as I said, I have to get to work so may not get back until tonight, if then. 

Any advice to make it a little more user friendly would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ellen

elvan‌  Not sure why I didn't see this question sooner.

  1. You can go to https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/blogs/ to see all blogs across the site. Or you can got to https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/content/ to see all content across the whole site. Please note, that by default it will sort by Newest to Oldest by Recent Activity.  You may want to re-sort by Newest to Oldest by Date Created to see the most recently created posts.
  2. You can find the Take the Daily Pledge‌ and All Aboard the Freedom Train‌ on Celebrations & Events‌ community which can be found as a link at the top of every page.
  3. In order to reply on content you need to be logged in. If you're logged in and the discussion/blog/question is not locked(closed for comments) then you will see an Add Comment or Reply button/bubble for you to press.  This will allow you to engage in the discussion.  If you don't see those buttons and you are logged in.  Look for the lock symbol at the top of the page. If you don't see one, send me a note.

Check in your preferences notification and click on news to get in your email that is what I did and I got your blog just now. You might have that box unchecked. I did this today and so far I got your blog. I'm still playing around with everything. I hope you have a nice day.

To do the pledge and freedom train, go to celebration and events. there are links to both right there. Once you are on celebration/events page, you can follow them. Now as far as blogs, i know you can access conversations, you can see recent discussions and that is a run down of the latest discussions, blogs and questions. All have different symbols in front of them.

So far - in order to see everything - I have going to "Home" then "All blog posts" - small link on right part way down. Then from there - "All content". Then I am seeing each of the kinds of posts - blogs, questions, celebrations, etc. You can also filter from there and just view certain types of posts. It is still a work in progress for me!

This is what I do every single morning.  I go to the home page, on the left-hand side is the blogs listed, I click on more, I click on All on the left or all content on top, I filter by Date created:  newest first.  BAM, it brings everything up in the order it was posted.  to Navigate back to where I was, I just use my browser's back button.  Otherwise I have to go through the same steps all over again.  I find if I leave it as the default setting, I click on some really, really old blogs that someone else was confused and clicked on.  Play around with your notifications.  I didn't like the email notifications because it was blowing it up constantly.  I chose the daily summary instead
