Thank you everyone for the reviews and kind words about my first poem I published on here called Suitcase! If you haven't checked it out yet please do so 🙏 |
Welcome to WdC! Congratulations on getting some reviews already and for publishing your first poem! Be sure to click around the site and check out things. Don't be shy. If you find a person you want to keep track of, double click their Plus Sign. Schnujo's Doing NaNoWriMo? When you double click until you see the megaphone, they get notified. Some people, like me, send all their new fans GPs (gift points, the WdC version of money) and other people will automatically fan you back. Most people probably don't do either, but still, it's a good option. When you click once, you see the finger with the string and have set them as a favorite of yours. That is private. No one can see who or what you favorite. You can remember the difference because megaphones can get mega bucks, but fingers with string get nothing. If you want to fan an item, don't fan the item from the link as you see below.
If you fan from there, you'll be fanning the person, not the item. To fan the item, you have to click the link to go to the page and (double) click the Plus in the upper right corner of the page. Feel free to fan both me and my challenge, but don't feel obligated to do so. When you fan or favorite a person, what they post on the Newsfeed will appear on your Personal Newsfeed, the default when you click Newsfeed. When you fan or favorite an item, it will appear on your Favorites list on the right side of your computer screen any time there is a new forum post or update to that item. Another bit of info, when you go to your Personal Newsfeed (the default when you click Newsfeed on the left side of the computer screen), you only see what's going on in your little part of WdC, but there are so many more people! Along the top of your Personal Newsfeed you will see " View the Community Newsfeed." Click that. You'll then see what everyone is posting (within your rating limit). It's a great way to make new friends and find new activities. Scroll, Like, comment, and start making friends! WELCOME TO WdC!!! |
People are lazy and more likely to read them if you post a link. In case you (or anyone else reading this) needs a refresher on how to do that, I'll quickly explain using my own challenge as an example. Feel free to check it out.
You need the curly braces, located above the square brackets on your keyboard and you need the 7-digit item number, located below the title on your item. It will also automatically pop up after the colon if the thing you are trying to post is one of the last 8 items you've written or edited. Do not use a space after the colon!
There are 2 main types of links used--item and bitem (big item).
