Part 7 – Finishing up

Finishing up
-
We have now covered most of the main features on diaspora*. The last part of this tutorial series deals with the last few bits and pieces you’ll need to know about.
-
Connecting your diaspora* seed to other services
-
You can connect your diaspora* seed to several other services: Twitter, Tumblr, and WordPress. Of course, to do this, you’ll have to have an account on that service!
-
Before starting this, make sure you have your account information for that service to hand, because you might need it to authorise your connection with that other service in order for it to work.
-
To connect to another service, click
<span class="click">Connect services</span>in the sidebar of the stream, and then click the relevant icon. If you’re already logged in to your account on that service in the same browser, it should recognise you automatically. If you’re not currently logged in to that service, it’ll ask you to log in now. Once you’re logged in, it will ask for authorisation to publish to your account in that service. Accept this, and you’re ready to post directly from your diaspora* seed to that service! -
When you next click in the publisher, you’ll see the icon for that service under the publisher. Click this icon to activate it, and your post will also appear in your stream on that service. Pretty nifty, eh? See %{part_link} for more information on posting to connected services.

Account management
-
The final thing we need to look at to get you started is the user settings page. To reach it, get to you user menu and, from the drop-down menu, choose
<span class="click">Settings</span>. Here you will find an overview of account options. -

Here you can: change your email address and password, set your language, choose from one of our color themes, set the default visibility of your posts, pick your email notification preferences and download your data or close your seed.
-
If you want, you can set your seed to automatically start sharing with anyone who starts sharing with you. You can also re-enable the “getting started” hints that appeared when you first opened your account.

Privacy
-
This is a list of users you are ignoring. You can remove them from this list if you want to start seeing posts from them again. See %{part_link} for more on ignoring people.
-
Services
-
The Services page shows your connected services (e.g. Twitter, Tumblr, WordPress) and allows you to connect new services to your diaspora* seed. See %{part_link} for more on connected services.
