Forums vs blogs

Published on January 8, 2004 By JillUser In Blogging

Perhaps I am the only one but I was posting articles to the Forum not realizing that it didn't post to my blogs. I now realize that when you post an article to your blog, you can chose to display it in forums as well. This isn't an option vice versa. I guess my rating has been slipping since I didn't realize this. I was enjoying the forums so much that I was spending any time on JoeUser home.

I guess I wll just have to come up with some new articles to post to my blog and quit posting to the forums. Actually, I should spend less time on either and more time doing house work

I could be wrong but I think you could click the edit of you forum blog and cut it, then goe to your site and create new article and then copy. If you click the forum option it should restore to the forum. Give it a try anyway.

We are going to add an option so that forum posts can be resent to the blog site too.

Brad, I goofed with my replies to Jill. I tried editing the errors and as a result I have too many duplications. Please if you can, delete them, it bloats my points.

When I go back to edit the forum and article post though it will delete the post in the forum. I am more careful to edit prior to posting now, but this remote computer is causing me the usual problems. So beware of this too.And remember to set default to size 1 or it comes up gigantic, as I just did, by clicking within the reply box and changing size manually from 3 to 1
