Aspect selector button
Aspect selector button
-
This button is how you select who will be able to read your post. It is set to “All aspects” by default: that is, everyone you have added to one of your aspects will be able to read the message, but no one else will be. In the simple message you just sent, because you wanted it visible just to your followers and the default is “All aspects,” there was no need to change any settings before sharing your message.

Denne knappen bruker du til å velge hvem som skal være istand til å lese posten din. Den er i utgangspunktet satt til «Alle aspekter»: det vil si, alle du har lagt til i et av dine aspekter vil være istand til å lese innlegget, men ingen andre vil kunne lese det. I det enkle innlegget du nettopp sendte, på grunn av at du ønsker å gjøre det synlig kun for de som følger deg og innstillingen i utgangspunktet er «Alle aspekter», var det ikke nødvendig å gjøre noen endringer i innstillingene før du delte innlegget. -
With this button you can select any individual aspect to share with, or any combination of your aspects, by clicking on aspects in the list to select or unselect them. In this way you have complete control over who gets to read your messages, as we discussed in %{part_link}. If, on the other hand, you want to announce something to the whole world, select “Public,” and there will be no restrictions on who can read your message.

At the right-hand end of the text field is a camera icon that lets you upload photos to your message. You can either click on it and select some pictures from your computer, or drag the images straight from a folder to the button.

Next to the camera is a “pin” icon which activates the locator feature. This enables you to add your location to posts. Click it and it will ask you whether you’re happy for it to determine your location using OpenStreetMap, and if you allow this it will add your location to your post as a footnote.

The location provided may be very exact, so you might want to edit out the specific address information and just give the town or region you’re in. It’s up to you!

Based on the connections you have made with your accounts on other social networks (Twitter, Tumblr, and WordPress), there may be icons for these services under the publisher. Highlighting these posts your message to those services. We’ll cover this in the next section, below.

Next to the “compose” button at the top left is the last button, with a magnifying glass icon – and it’s a really useful one! This allows you to see exactly what your post will look like, so you can be sure you’re happy with it before you actually post it. This can really help with correcting errors, and especially with text formatting. More on this below.

Place a # (hash) symbol in front of a word and it becomes a #tag. What’s the use of this? Well, #tags are a great way of finding content that interests you, and of bringing content to the attention of people who are likely to be interested in it. You can search for tags by typing them in the search field in the header. You can also follow tags, so that any posts containing those tags appear in your stream – in fact, if you filled out the “Describe yourself in 5 words” part of your profile page, you’re already following those tags!

Plasser et #-symbol («hash») foran et ord og det blir til en #tag. Hva poenget er med dette? Vel, #tag-er er en super metode for å finne innhold som interesserer deg, og for å gjøre folk oppmerksom på innhold, som antagelig vil være interessert i det. Du kan søke etter tag-er ved å taste de inn i søkefeltet i overskriftslinjen. Du kan også følge tag-er, sånn at alle poster som inneholder de tag-ene dukker opp i stream-en din – faktisk, hvis du har fylt ut «Deg: i 5 #tagger»-delen av profilsiden din, følger du allerede de tag-ene! -
Say you like cooking and you post a message with “#cooking” in it. Anyone who follows the #cooking tag will now see your post appear in their streams. Of course for any follower of #cooking to see your post, you’ll have had to make it a public post; if you made it only to one or more aspects, only people in those aspects will be able to read it. You can also search for “#cooking” in the search bar, and you’ll be presented with a list of all posts tagged with “#cooking.” That includes your own posts, posts by friends and public posts by other diasporans. You can see how this can be a fantastic tool for finding and sharing content with people who share your interests.

Si for eksempel at du like matlaging og at du poster en melding med #matlaging i. Enhver som følger tag-en #matlaging vil nå se posten din dukke opp i stream-en sin. For at enhver som følger #matlaging skal kunne se posten din, må du naturligvis ha gjort den til en offentlig post; hvis du postet den til bare ett eller flere aspekter, vil bare personer i de aspektene kunne lese den. Du kan også søke etter #matlaging i søkefeltet, og du vil bli presentert for en liste over alle poster tag-et med «#matlaging». Det inkluderer dine egne poster, poster av venner og offentlige poster av brukere av diaspora*. Du kan se for deg hvordan dette kan være et fantastisk verktøy for å finne og dele innhold med mennesker som deler dine interesser. -
If your post might potentially cause offence or get someone into trouble for viewing it at work, please add the <span class="click">#nsfw</span> (“not safe for work”) tag so that it will be hidden on people’s screens unless they choose to view it. We’ll cover this in %{part_link}.
