Haha ... I also followed Burston and Blondie :) Welcome new members! And thanks guys for not strangling me.

Searching tags for "tutorial" and "how to" members have posted may help you navigate booklikes -- just check the date of those posts because some things have changed since massive joins back in 2013.

I listed a bunch I found helpful back in 2013/2014 at http://donealrice.booklikes.com/How-To (seriously, I haven't updated that page in forever; at a glance, the custom ways to create blockquotes and spoiler tags are no longer necessary because just clickable menu options booklikes has since added).

I still find it very helpful to put a unique tag on my review posts so I can find just those again (still no option to search just reviews). I also used that tag to make a menu choice on my blog for "All My Reviews" -- that is a page that redirects to posts tagged with unique phrase -- which is "http://booklikes.com/dashboard?tag=whatever"; in my case, I tag my reviews with "Reviews from Spurts" so http://booklikes.com/dashboard?tag=Reviews%20from%20Spurts

Spoiler tag pretty much only works for me now if I first type the spoiler text, then highlight it and hit the spoiler icon. Even hardcoding the code for it into the HTML editor fails to actually hide a spoiler.

Community has some huge issues with reblogs that booklikes is still not addressing. If you reblog a reblog, the reblogger rather than original poster will get credited, so it's been kind of a consensus to always click back to original post to reblog. And to never reblog someone's review (okay to link to it but reblog a review and it counts as a review from you and possibly adds a duplicate rating/review to the book).

Followed -- and welcome MMarte. I think I may remember your name from Leafmarks?

M/M books aren't my thing, but I followed because I love your GIFs. (And M/M books used to be my thing until they weren't. So I'm semi-interested in keeping up with the authors I used to read fanatically.)

I just followed him about 5 minutes ago, when I saw his comment on one of the posts. :)

I also added a bunch of new blogs from Krissy's list yesterday.

I did, too. It's amazing to see so many active blogs out there and it's a little bit sad that it is so hard to find them. :(

I think Burston's Book Blog commented on one of my posts, which means he must be following me, but I can't say remember a notification. So, I followed back immediately of course.

Yes, that's correct! I was on Leafmarks.

Haha, okay. Enjoy my gifs, I use them a lot! ;)

Thanks, Debbie!
I've made my own tags, reviews by mmarte and updates by mmarte, so they can be searched for easily.

Hi. Yeah,.....BookLikes isn't very good at letting people know about other blogs, so we came up with our own method of letting people know.

Followed. (He's an author, too, it seems -- from scrolling down a couple of posts.)

Followed :) I'm glad you guys found blogs to follow too. I spent a good few hours on here ... longer than I intended looking through the "recent reviews" section looking through people that posted recently that don't have followers and posted reviews of books I liked or was interested in. There's always someone new I don't know about... BL needs a way of listing members or having some kind of "meet and greet" or some odd something for members.

More blogs that I've followed.
