It's been too long since we've had a Hubski Update.
Today, we are rolling out drafts.
Now when you add text to a post or a comment, you are given the option to save it as a draft, rather than posting it right away.
A few things about drafts:
-A draft remains only visible to you until you publish it. To do so, toggle the draft selection to 'no' when editing the post or comment.
-Shoutouts and reply alerts are only sent when a draft is published.
-Posts and comments that have been posted cannot be reverted to a draft.
-You can find a link to all your current drafts in your profile.
You can thank insomniasexx for this one.
As always, feedback is much appreciated.
Wonderful! I've been wanting this for a long time: Why? Because I often start an answer and don't quite get it right or run out of time, so I end up deleting it instead of publishing. Thanks insomniasexx and all.
I would love to see a "linked posts" features, where you can make a train of posts, perhaps give them a common theme, and so on, so that you can make a "blog" of comments, posts, or so on. I don't know, I think the ability to write out things in social media in long-form or such is a bit limited. Maybe call them "collections"?
Something that you compile? Are you familiar with the lists? Here's a completely random one: https://hubski.com/list?id=1,15555,209434,20966,6794,30763 Basically you just string the ids in the url, separated by commas. insomniasexx often uses it to make a newsletter complication.
I was thinking more something that you "create" as it's own entity, then add to over time, and people can come back to it. A more personal version of a tag, that has it's own unique ID, that only you can add too, and that keeps all it's posts as a list that you can see previous posts on and such.
I think you could achieve that with a personal tag. But, I admit that personal tags were much better put to that purpose before they were created by default. It's very likely that we will return to the old system of two tags and a community tag soon. As before, if the author so desired, she could make one of the tags a personal one. We have also envisioned a version of saved posts where you could create categories for them. We call them archives. thenewgreen has been lobbying for them for years. :)
