− | ==Edit these comments into above instructions==
| |
− |
| |
− | I think the very things you told me to do in this email under the heading: 'Forming a new List' (or something!)
| |
− | It seemed that the page led you to info on creating a list, but then only spoke of editing it. So, the creation part seemed to be missing.
| |
− |
| |
− | Also, point out that the list is edited by clicking on the tab at the top. It is small and easy to miss.
| |
− |
| |
− | The idea that the list is generated through the tags and then available to edit is where I was hung up.
| |
− |
| |
− | Also, how do I become an official ListKeeper? I am wondering if the site tags that I changed because they were totally off will just anger the owner! I am not a nit-pick, but a couple of sites on the list(s) were way off base, so I took off the tags.
| |
− | I guess I am expecting some retaliation - lol!
| |
− |
| |
− | Anyway, I appreciate the work you are doing!
| |

| |

| |
− | Yay Tara!
| |
− |
| |
− | What would we need to have said on the ListKeeping page that would have helped you out?
| |

| |
− | Best, Mark
| |
− |
| |
− | Eureka!
| |
− | Now I see what you want me to do!
| |
− | Not to criticize, but that List Keeper page needs a little more info!
| |
− |
| |
− | Thank you!!

− | Hi Tara,
| |
− |
| |
− | Go to any website page on AboutUs that fits in your list. Add the tag, which is at the bottom of the page.
| |
− |
| |
− | Click on that tag after you have saved it. That takes you to a list page where you can edit the title and description.
| |
− |
| |
− | Let me know if that makes sense or not :-)
| |

| |
− | Best, Mark
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | Well, yes, but then, how do I 'create' a tag or actually name the list?
| |
− | Are they automatically created when I type them in at the bottom of my own site listing?
| |
− | And if so, how is the name/title of the list created?

− | Hi Tara! :-)
| |
− |
| |
− | Excited that you want to create your own list.
| |
− |
| |
− | We hope that this page (which is like an index) helps people figure out lists:
| |
− |
| |
− | http://www.aboutus.org/ListKeeping
| |
− |
| |
− | But that doesn't sound like it did :-( sorry!
| |
− |
| |
− | Basically - lists are created by tags.
| |
− |
| |
− | the two lists in the homeopathic search were:
| |
− |
| |
− | http://www.aboutus.org/list/allergies
| |
− |
| |
− | and
| |
− |
| |
− | http://www.aboutus.org/list/healing
| |
− |
| |
− | so if you see the pattern, the tag at the end of the list, then you can check homeopathic
| |
− |
| |
− | http://www.aboutus.org/list/homeopathic
| |
− |
| |
− | There are 947 websites on that list - so you may want to 'clean' the list up, or start your own list.
| |
− |
| |
− | You would do that by coming up with a fairly unique tag. HomeopathicProducts has 19 websites to start:
| |
− |
| |
− | http://www.aboutus.org/list/homeopathicproducts
| |
− |
| |
− | So you remove sites from the list by removing that particular tag and you add them to the list by adding that particular tag.
| |
− |
| |
− | Changes usually are pretty quick, but can take a little time to show. Let me know if it takes more than 24 hours for a change to appear for you.
| |
− |
| |
− | Does this make any sense?
| |
− |
| |
− | Best, Mark
| |
− |
| |
− | Yes! Actually, I think the 'no results' was on a previous try for something else.
| |
− |
| |
− | Anyway, neither of those lists are for or about homeopathy ro homeopathic products. So, I'd like to make a new list.
| |
− | I may even want to do additional lists for other things I'm keen on, but I don't see how to proceed.
| |
− |
| |
− | I'm sorry if it's obvious and I'm just missing it! :)
| |
− |
| |

| |
− | Hi Tara,
| |
− |
| |
− | Lists are confusing, for sure. When I do a search for homeopathic - I get two lists:
| |
− |
| |
− | Sneeze, Wheeze, Allergies
| |
− |
| |
− | Healing: Resources & Information
| |
− |
| |
− | at http://www.aboutus.org/Special/search?tags=homeopathic
| |
− |
| |
− | Do you see that?
| |
− |
| |
− | When you ask 'Now what?' - what are you referring to? Starting your own list, fixing up an existing list?
| |
− |
| |
− | :-)
| |
− |
| |
− | Thanks for your patience with us!

| |
− | Hi Mark,
| |
− | I am a webdesigner, and even your list creation has me stumped.
| |
− | When I do a search for 'homeopathic', there are no lists returned.
| |
− |
| |
− | Now what? The instructions are confusing and I can usually get through
| |

| |

| |
− | Help! :)
