Creating a blog and adding a link to your profile

[shadowrider]

You now have the ability to create a blog.

Follow the link and have fun.

https://www.ddlgforum.com/forum/281-blogs/

 

Once you start your blog you can copy the link and add it to your profile.

Click "Edit Profile" and scroll to the bottom and you should see "My Blog".

Click the Link button shown in the pic below.

Add the link to the URL line.

Add any name you want for your blog to the Text Link line.

Click Save.

Your blog will now show up on your profile next to your About Me section or other sections.

You may now add other member's blogs below yours. Follow the same procedure, just make sure to add it below yours.  Maybe your partner's or any other blog you follow so others can see it also.

My Blog

That field has extremely limited options. It is meant for phone numbers, emails, social media links, URLs and things like that.

I could change it to a text field and you could possibly post a link with a name like in a post. Not sure how that would work. 

I'll play with that idea when I get time this week and if it works I'll change the blog section and update everyone thats an option. Good idea, fingers crossed

Understandable. I appreciate streamlined forums/posts, so I appreciate any effort to look into this!

That looks more streamlined and clean. Thanks for the idea.

And now you can add more than one blog to your Blogs list in case you want to share someone else's.

I just learnt today if you click activity it’s actually a menu… Is there a way to choose your preferred section to be the main one on your profile?

I don't think so but I'll have a look at it in a bit and see what I find.

Totally fine if it’s not possible, I just didn’t know it was a menu, so I thought there could be settings I was unaware of also.

*raises hand* I would also like to suggest maybe having an image size limit for any images/stickers/icons people wanna use instead of/or with text? I think 100pxw x 100pxh or smaller seems to not be too big.
