Getting Around on MILU

[luise.volta]

Coco - I wonder if you would put your instructions regarding how to manage posts here for others to read. I really didn't have a clue how to work with my own software and what you have taught me has be such a help. Thanks so much!

I would love to!  Most of you have probably already figured this out but here goes...

To see replies to your posts when you come in on MILU, first go to the top left of your home page, underneath your name;

Click on the words, "show new replies to your posts."  This will bring up a screen (Like the home-page menu), showing the replies you've gotten to your posts (or even replies to replies).  The order in which they appear will be "most recent on top."  then you just click on each one and respond.

If you want to see the most recent posts (since you've last looked):
Simply click on the words, "show unread posts since last visit"

This will bring up any posts that have come in since you were here last.

I hope this helps!  If it doesn't leave your reply here and we will work this out!!!

Thank you SO much!

HOW TO GET STARTED POSTING:

This was started by Chickie a couple of weeks ago on another thread, and I thought I would add instructions here as well;

From the main menu, click on the subject you would like to post in.  This will bring you into a separate screen showing all the posts in that category.

At the very bottom of this menu, there will be a button called "New Topic."  Click on that button.
This will open up a screen that looks like an email that you are getting ready to send. 

Fill out the Subject title (Whatever you are titling your post)

In the "roll-down" screen underneath that, type out your post. Just like writing an email!  You can scroll up or down to read your post using the roll-bar to the right of where you are typing.

When you are finished, click on the "POST" button.  It's at the bottom-left of your screen (in blue)

Welcome!  Let us know if this is good enough or you have any more questions.

 ;)To reply to someone else's post, simply click on the reply button (located at the bottom-right hand side).  Underneath the post you are reading.  Go through the same steps above for making your own post.
