Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Hi,
It would appear that some members aren't sure as to how to use some of the many features and facilities that are available on the OCD Action website and forums. So I've started this thread to hopefully answer some of your queries. If having looked in the Site Guide which can be accessed by clicking on the blue button marked Site Guide at the top of each page you're still unsure as to how to do something please don't hesitate to ask by posting on here.
Tags are used on forums to quickly get an idea of the most popular topics available and are based on keywords that the user can type in when they post a thread. It means that threads on the same topic can be linked together for easy reference.
To the right hand side of the Forum page or the page that any thread is on you will see a box called Hot Tags. This lists the most popular tags. If you click on any of them it will give you a list of threads on that particular topic. So for instance if you wanted to find threads on intrusive thoughts click on the words intrusive thoughts and it will give you a list of all the tagged threads on intrusive thoughts.
If you want a list of all the tags click on any of the Hot Tags and then once on the page with the list for that tag just below the navigation bar at the top of the page you will see the word Tags written in blue just after the words OCD Action Online Forums. Click on the word Tags and it will give you a comprehensive list of all tags.
When you start a new thread underneath the Reply box there is a box called Tags. Type in the keyword there and it will tag the thread. If you type in another word it needs to be separated by a comma.
Alternatively at the top of each page in the thread to the right of the thread title you will see the word Tags and underneath it a box. Write the key word/s in the box and click on Add.
