New Features Added!
« on: July 03, 2016, 04:03:20 PM »
Hi all,
I've added a couple of new features to Flourish.

1. You can now link directly to your Instagram account by adding the link in your Profile. Do not include the @ sign.

2. You can now tag other members in a post! For this you DO include the @ sign. The mod does not like spaces so once you click the first couple of letters of the username, it brings up a drop down menu. You can then select the user from the list.

I'm still working on some kind of bookmark feature. Let me know if you'd like to see anything else.  ;D
Warm Regards,
Erica

Thanks @Erica  (still can't get the tag to work though- sad face - beginning to think it just doesn't like me haha!)

Currently, the links are set to expire after 7 days (but the emails, obviously remain). I think this is to prevent a huge pile up of notifications over time.

Thank you Erica,

This Forum just keeps getting better and better, primarily due to your unending efforts and hard work. 
Can't express just how much this community you created means to me.

Heartfelt thanks again

So cool @Erica McPhee (I had to try it!)

Love the new features. Your hard work is highly appreciated. But I am missing the jump-out-of-the-screen-and-give-Erica-a-huge-hug button. Can you please work on that??  ;)
