The "How do I...." thread

[Yorkshire Blue]

If you're struggling to do something you use to be able to on the old board (for example, send a PM*), post it up on this thread and we'll try and help you with it

Just don't expect an answer during the England match!


*PMs are now called Conversations. Click on someone's avatar and choose "start conversation"

On Twitter just copy the link of the tweet and post it directly a reply/post and let the magic happen it will appear. Give it a try!
