Tech Question About DU

Hi, all,

Is there a key that defines what the thread icons signify?
One of my threads is currently on fire and I am not sure if that is good or bad for my membership status.

Please let me know.

Thx!

9. list of icons

General

Question

Article

I'm looking for...

News

They are at the top of the choices, category is "Topic Type"

In LBN, you only have one option, "News", in "Editorials and Other Articles" you can only post Articles.

Does that help? If not, click:

Post
at the top of a forum.
It should become clearer.

now it's 50. Well done!

If you want to see what the icons mean, click 'Post' and there is a selection with radio buttons you can choose. I always forget to change that.

4. My question: why do some of "my forum" icons have faces and some don't?

Pets and CSPAN have faces but Georgia and United Kindgom don't.
Anyone know? Thanks in advance. :)

6. Look in the DU Groups

and you'll see that all of them have a face icon.
