Just thought I would make a quick list of feature that you can use to make your forum browsing / access easier.
Feel free to reply back ONLY if you have a hint / tips which could benefit other users. Any off topic replies will be deleted and / or infracted.
Subscribe via RSS Feeds
You can check for new threads via an RSS reader. I personally use Firefox and use its live bookmarking feature to subscribe to RSS feeds. To get the feed URL in firefox just click the RSS icon in the address bar when you are viewing a thread/forum and subscribe to either that forum or Ozhonda as a whole.
The Community link
Use the Community link to access State specific threads. This applies to both the Marketplace and the Upcoming Events forum. More information in this thread.
If you frequently blog we have recently setup an Ozhonda Twitter account. This will parse any News items so you can be updated when any News items or Announcements are made by following Ozhonda on Twitter. From time to time I also do add threads directly to Twitter.
Ozhonda on your mobile device
There is a mobile friendly version of the site which you can access just by going to the bottom of the page and clicking the link Mobile Friendly Site. This is a very basic version of the site with no graphics which makes it ideal for viewing on a mobile device.
Thread Tags
Check out the thread tag cloud on the left hand side of the forum page or just have a look at some of the popular thread tags.
YouTube BB Code
We have a YouTube tag so that you can embed YouTube videos directly into your posts. There is a YouTube icon in the Advanced editor view.
Ie for a link like this:
http:// www . youtube.com/watch?v=vaIgt6TGhIA&feature=related
Just put the text in Red within the YouTube tags.
Ie [ YOUTUBE ]vaIgt6TGhIA&feature=related[ /YOUTUBE ]
