Common Question: Linking to a Specific Post


Francis

Common Question: How do you link to a post?

Method I:  No Reply Option

When you are in a thread and you want to send a specific post, you look for something that looks like this:

Right above the icon and screen name on an individual post, you'll see this:

If you click on that link, it will take you to the individual post.  This method does not allow the recipient to reply to the post.

Method II: Post and Reply Option

Navigate to the post you wish to share.  Click on the Reply to Message button.

This method allows you to share the post and offers the option for the recipient to reply to the message.
