Hi sweeties 🤗❤️,

I think we all have to get used to the lay-out off the new community and that some features are completely different then this community.

Thats why I decided to make a topic where i will share how the new community works i hope it will be helpful for you guys🤗❤️.

In one off the last pics you will see the community when you open it. I will highlight everything I marked on the pic🤗.

Above you have three options

🦋The three stripes:

Iff you click the three stripes you will get a side menu in this side menu there are 4 options:

✨ the magnifying glass 🔍 where says search forum

In here you can search either for a topic you looking for or for a person like you see in the pic form this topic.

✨ under the search bar you see English

Iff you press that button you are able to set the community in a different language their 6 languages available like you see in the pic.

✨ notifications

Iff you click notifications you will be able to see the likes or comments you got on either a topic or on a comment you posted

✨ youre name

When you press that you will get three options

🍀 profile

You will enter youre profile like i highlighted the pic following a few things i will name them:

✨ in the blue bar its set on posts iff you click it you get 4 options:
📌 posts
On here you can see every comment or topic you have posted it.
📌 discussions ( i think it depends on what categories you have posted)
📌 mentions
In here you can see topics where other players have mentioned you in.
📌 and settings

✨profile pic

At frist we weren’t able to change it but now we can. Iff you hit the profile pic you are able to change youre pic. Rosie did mention that the big cannot be to big otherwise you get a error. When you upload a pic I would recommend to choose for normal because iff you choose for original size you most likely get a error.

✨under the profile pic you see the online status

form someone iff someone is not online you will able to see when they were active and it shows how long it was since you joined the community. In settings you are able to set this off.

🍀 settings

In settings you are able to change the following things:

✨ youre name
✨ notifications

Iff you hit the web button all notifications will be off. There are a few things under notifications iff you hit one off them you are able to set them off or on.

Under notifications there is a bar where it says automatically follow discussions i reply to you can set this on or off

✨ privacy
As I mentioned above 👆 here you can either set the bar on or off iff you want others to know iff you are online or not.

✨ theme
Under theme there is a bar saying use per device settings i think this is iff you use more then one device to play ff you can set for each and every device a theme.

In my pic it says night mode but there are three options iff you hit that.
🌺 day mode
🌺 night mode
🌺automatic( saying it depends on the settings on youre phone or browser)

🦋 in the blue barin the middle” discussions”

Iff you hit that you will be able to make a selection Either saying discussions, following or tags. Iff you hit tags you will get the same thing as pic 6.

Iff you press following you will see all the topics you have decided to follow.

How can you follow a topic?

There are two options how to do so:

Go the the topic you like but don’t click it and slide it to the left. Iff you do that you will get in the bottom a option to choose for follow.
Click on the topic like pic 7 says above you have a star where it says follow iff you hit that you will follow the topic iff you use button next to the button follow you are able to select like i showed in the pic.

🦋 in the right corner in the blue bar

Iff you hit the square with the pencile in it you are able to create a topic. Iff you click it you get a way to create a topic.

✨ choose tags:
Iff you hit that you are able to set the category for youre topic. See my rules topic for how to use the right category.
✨discussion tittle (for the subject off youre topic)
✨ write a post

Here you are able to write youre topic. Underneath you have a few options:

📌 preview
📌 uploading a pic or a file
The quality isn’t that great and you cannot upload more then one pic a time sadly.
📌 some settings for the layout off the topic
📌 @ for tagging a person or a post
📌 the cain (for sharing a link
But you can also just use copy the link and paste it in write post it works as well.
📌 the emoij

Iff you have finished youre topic you can hit the arrow right above. Be careful here in this community you are able to save a draft but you can’t on the new community.

Here in this community we have recommendations on the new community we have it as well but its called sticky. I guess its like a pinned topic. But its not like this community like you will see it right away.

🦋 under the blue bar in the left corner its says latest you get a menu where you can choose for the following options:

✨ latest
✨ top
✨ newest
✨ oldest

Its like a filter you can use. Latest is for the latest topics which got a reply. Top for the topics which have a lot off likes or comments. Newest for the newest topics and oldest for the oldest ones.

I hope this will be a bit helpful. I hope they will change the layout a bit I did see they added a color to the side menu and i hope they bring somethings I suggest in my other topic.

Sadly it won’t have a chat feature though as rosie said so.

Lots off love Ankie
