What’s Next? 🌆🚴 Our community is growing and has been much more lively than last summer. We had 50x the number of topics and replies posted here last month than the previous July! Visitors are 7x more likely to become a member*, and members are spending twice the amount of time on site. As liveliness in our Help and Welcome forums grows, we’ll identify themes to create additional forums to help Angels connect with each other more easily. Community Tune Up 👼💪 You might have noticed that the members online indicator on our homepage often said 0 members were online in the community. You may not have noticed, since this feature is only visible when you’re logged out. Either way—We fixed this dynamic indicator to ensure members will be able to see how many members are live in the community in real time.

Supermembers check in often, comment on member posts, moderate content, and set the tone of how we’ll interact with each other here. These members are integral to creating a collaborative and beneficial space for all Angels to find helpful resources. Supermembers have an important role, and as the community expands, the role they play in the community can expand, as well.

Community Tune Up 👼💪 Community Guidelines Spot Check As the community grows, so will the structure. It’s important to post help questions in the Help forum to increase visibility of your topic, and to keep the site organized for all members to find what they need easily The community is a place people come when they have questions, and forums within the community should present topics in easy-to-understand formats. We ask that community members focus on creating clear titles that summarize their specific issue to avoid duplicate posts. This also helps create content that is easily searchable Always keep the Community Guidelines top of mind when creating posts in the community. Review them anytime here.
