Thanks for the tip, Daeds. Also trying to edit my profile pic…. might need to try on laptop rather than iPad.
Novel is going okay, thanks. Just sent latest round of edits to my (!!!!) agent.
How’s your writing going??

Oh, and a litle tip if you hadn’t picked up on it already – if you click on ‘Activity’ at the top, you get a Cloud style ‘wall’

Hi Philippa, thanks for dropping in, great to see you. How are things going with the novel etc at the moment?

Yes, I was wondering about setting the main wall as the home page, Daed. Will have a look and if it can’t be done, I’ll add a few navigation instructions under About. Might add some anyway tbh.

Btw if we can’t make ‘Activity’ the home page, could we add a line on the home page welcome to the effect of ‘click on “Activity” to see the latest posts and updates’ or something like that?

Hi Squidge. If you click on your name anywhere it comes up in a forum, or in the little status box to the right of the page title (for you it should read ‘Squidge’ with your profile pic and ‘log out’ beneath) it will take you to your personal menu.

I think it’s that I basically haven’t set it as a default. Thought I had but obvioudly haven’t. Will take a look tomorrow. But yes it occurred to me somewhat belatedly that that must be the case.

Also, Jules, do you know a lot about SSL? I can see that the current Nethosted setup allows HTTP as well and that looks like the default if you don’t expressly request HTTPS. I know I could force my browser to choose secure only, or by preference, but that has broken some site access for me in the past. If you don’t (know) I’ll have a dig…[Read more]

I’m being a bit thick today (yes, today!). This IS a very basic version of TinyMCE isn’t it? I think it’s the TinyMCE advanced plugin I’m thinking of. I foolishly got rid of my test site so I can’t check.

I think it’s definitely worth looking into, Ath 🙂

How does everybody feel about the default text editor? On the one hand it allows some HTML stuff to be done easily but on the other hand many users will be familiar with a WYSIWYG alternative. I think TinyMCE is available (and it is a very good editor).
