Re: Ratings
on each post you'll see two buttons, "alert good message" and "alert bad message". Theoretically, when a reader hits one of those buttons, a message will be sent to your inbox saying "so and so" recommends this message or somesuch. It's something that doesn't seem to work all the time, I haven't gotten alerts in a while.

That's fine, or H as other do. I will know who are referring to.
in the upper-right hand corner of your screen you'll see a button that says "enter admin mode". Hit that button, and you'll see all the options as far as rating posts next to the subject line- from "R" to ~"BSA". In admin mode you'll also be able to view hidden posts/threads.
In regular mode you have "R", "RR", edit, move posts, hide body and subject...etc.
BTW, if you rate a post, you can change or remove a rating- nothing is permanent. Buttons are like on-off switches.
You can also moderate in the "Test Forum". So you can see how the moving posts option works, if you desire.
Great, thanks for the information. I have gone in to the administrative mode a few times, but I had not seen much of an explanation of what a lot of the buttons mean. And Even though I am supposed to have full privileges I have been having trouble getting a lot of the stuff to work. I will keep playing with it. But it would be nice if readers could rate the posts. Anyone is going to think their writings are great. It should be the reader's opinions that count.
