Use hash tags anywhere!

January 2, 2012 at 4:57 PM

HASH TAGS - You can now use #hashtags anywhere on Egg Cave. These hash tags will always link to forum posts that are tagged with the respective hash.

As another note, our Forum Rules have been updated. Posts should not contain excessive hash tags or use them inappropriately. Use them in meaningful places to help categorize your content and what you're talking about!

UPDATE - Trade Lot tags no longer clash with hash tags. As an extra note, hashtags can NOT begin with numbers.

I don't know what a hashtag is...?

iulianna1 • 2 Jan 2012, 6:05 PM

@moomoomilk24 I think it's a way for you to advertise your forum with a link sort of thing 😸 For example #lyrate or #elpin

blackrose_chan • 2 Jan 2012, 6:11 PM

and testing #creatureidea 😱 I guess it's more better then posting the whole site :/

sophia123 • 2 Jan 2012, 6:18 PM

sophia123 • 2 Jan 2012, 6:20 PM

sophia123 • 2 Jan 2012, 6:47 PM

@masquerade if you have to put #"yourtext" (without "")in a topic and then you have a hashgroup or use made ones like #creaturesuggestion

kagirl21 • 2 Jan 2012, 6:54 PM

I didn't expect it either

rawrcookies08 • 2 Jan 2012, 6:55 PM

blackrose_chan • 2 Jan 2012, 6:58 PM

gvantsa • 2 Jan 2012, 7:43 PM

@piano: If you put a hash in a topic when people look up that word in hash search they find the topic.
