Tips❤️When you are adding a custom header, footer, widget or page, you may want to make use of the built-in CSS utility classes in Crowdstack. This should make your coding much easier. I'll break them down by classes native to Foundation , which is the responsive framework Crowdstack uses, and those that are built into Crowdstack. Foundation CSS Classes .text-right : equivalent to text-align:right .text-left : equivalent to text-align:left .text-center : equivalent to text-align:center .flex-video...

TipsFrom a design perspective, i think it looks good to have your forum names bolded along with the titles of the topics. To do this, just add the following to your Custom CSS section found on this page: YOURSITE.hooplaupgrade.com/cp/display-settings .h-forum-name {font-weight: bold;} .h-topic-title {font-weight: bold;} I implemented this on my site and it looks good. Enjoy!

TipsI just found this cool (mostly free) tool that helps you pull a dynamic photo feed from Twitter, Instagram, and/or Facebook. If you use their Pro version, it also includes custom CSS and moderation tools. You can paste their embed code into custom content blocks or custom widgets, or into the header or footer of your Crowdstack site. Options include scrolling banners, grids, and map style. SnapWidget If you decide to try it out, come back and share your design!

Tips❤️Sometimes I want to reply to a long post and prefer to quote the original post, and then split the quote so I can insert comments. I found a trick for doing it. It's super easy. Reply with Quote Click where you want to split the quoted text. Press Enter once Press Left Arrow once Press Enter three times. This will split the quote and leave space for you to type something inside the split. This makes it easy to reply to a long post like this. Here's a video. Enjoy! Of course, if you know of...

Crowdstack DiscussionHi, Are you doing anything different in your community given the radical changes in our day to day lives recently? Our community is normally task-oriented and the task is creating great live musical performances. With the shutdowns - almost all of our members have had all their gigs canceled. This means three things. We have more time on our hands. There are significantly fewer practical applications for our products. Members have more time to explore our products (testing the limits,...

Blog Post CommentAhhh now you caught my eye.. It all began for me with a mysterious invitation found while surfing the net. Something called Groupee (they could not even spell it right ) It was an invitation to put your name down for future participation in a new socialising medium. Some chap called Ted O'Neill sent a message back saying they were not ready yet but would be in touch. I forgot about it till they got in touch.. "Oh yeah that"... I for a penny in for a pound. Or is that Cent and Dollar? So it...

Blog Post CommentUseful beginners tips Rosemary. I can relate a little of my own experience here if you don't mind. ( notice the compliment and the almost apologetic way of stepping in Groupee was the first Bloggers site I had ever joined with confidence. It was the newness of the Social network on offer that gave me a feeling of belonging. Prior to that I could not "break the ice" anywhere else. I think blogging is easier than joining a forum. Unless the forum is very specific in it's nature. In a blog you...

Crowdstack Discussion📈Hello, Bear with me as I am totally new to this arena and will likely ask some very, very face-palm-worthy questions! I am building a unique health-based community in the hunting and fishing space, and am curious as to what your experiences have been with recruiting beta testers for your communities. My goals are as follows: 1) Get a solid sample of users for feedback regarding site layout and navigation 2) Get a a meaningful of sample traffic for behavior analysis, growth estimates, etc. to...

Blog Post CommentI suffered this too. Answer was Evernote. Scanned then shred.

Blog Post CommentYou're so right! I'm a recent convert to Evernote...perhaps that's what's finally allowed me to feel comfortable ditching the paper files. Thanks for stopping by!

Blog Post CommentYou are an inspiration to me. You know what MY hoarding has resulted in.

Blog Post CommentGetting your workspace in an acceptable manner really does affect your work. Have you checked out bringing in accessories like Wholesale Planters and lamps. This would really brighten up the place. What do you guys think?

Topic ReplyI and others on our forum started getting these emails. We reported this and were subsequently informed that this was a bug and that it had been dealt with, What I found was that many of the boxes on the notifications page here had been ticked on automatically which is why we started getting the emails.. As a quick fix, go to the notifcations page and untick the email boxes on the follows page and rhe settings page: https://hey.crowdstack.com/member-cp/follows That should stop all emails. If...

Topic Reply🔥Hi, DBenoit. Thanks for giving us some more information about you and your goals in your profile . From your profile What's your community's big goal? The goal of this community is to foster the exchange of experiences, issues, information, and inspiration toward overcoming personal health challenges in the hunting and fishing communities. Have you found any places (physical or virtual) where like-minded people congregate? I'm picking up on Rosemary's thoughts about brick and mortar...

Blog Post Commentstrangely enough, I have noticed a reversal on LiveCloud. Names being changed, Avi's that used to portray the real person being replaced with pictorial representations. It is difficult to be the real you when you are afraid that there are rather unsavoury people floating about who have more than a mean attitude. Groupee had a very personal touch about it. Then it was mainly American's with a sprinkling of other nationalities. I found the Americans to far more polite than the English and...

Blog Post CommentHi Margarita, yes they were released, and you can see the new "surveys" tab on your site, in the navigation bar. Any old "polls" have been turned into "surveys" and they can be found under that tab now.

Blog Post CommentLOL, but breakfast is usually something "instant." It makes everything so much more fun when we get to know our customers and they become friends. Makes me want to get up at 6am When are you coming back to visit us in the States again? I use my email inbox as a "to do" list. First run through and delete all of the spam (even with filtering, there's a lot). Then respond to the quick items, then go top to bottom for the longer responses. Then read the blogs, deleting the ones I don't need to...

Blog Post CommentI haven't commented on this yet, but while looking into creating our own IOS home screen lock favicon, I found this thread. Lucky you. I'm not a fan of teal in any use. Doesn't help that obviously this was designed by a San Jose Sharks fan. Go Jackets! I would probably have cut off the top pointy triangle on the stylized 'H' to accentuate the logo looking more like a "talk bubble" (which was the intent, right?) Anyway... so on what admin page do I paste my link rel="apple-touch-icon" code?

Blog Post CommentHi Neil- you can paste anything you want in your HEAD area (including touch icons). The HEAD field is found in Display Settings.

Topic ReplyHi, Ted. I just installed UNICODE 9.0 fonts so I could use this symbol. And later I found your post above. I went to Font Awesome https://fontawesome.com/icons/power-off?style=solid and used the instructions that said to use this code < i class = " fas fa-power-off " > </ i > When I do that, I get and trying the same code here in this message the html editor in this windows strips out the code and it won't render. What am I doing wrong. Thanks, ST </body>
