I need some help. How do I edit my timeline post? I’ve been reading every day and keeping notes, but I’m having trouble posting and copying.
Go to your post on a PC (lots of things don’t work in the mobile App, that work from a computer). At the bottom right, there will be an option to edit the post. once you are done editing the post, make sure to click on edit post at the bottom left to update the post.In order to copy and paste into a post, the post you are copying into has to be in edit mode.
Does that make sense?
Hi everyone, How are you doing this month? How is your reading going?
I've had rather interesting month. I am not reading what I had planned on reading, but I am re-reading a series that I have thoroughly enjoyed since I read first book in 2016.
