Status update - can't find it

[Vivianne]

Hi there,

I see the status update element on the front page (desktop theme), but I can't find as to where to post my own status update.
Is it available for normal members? Or is it a thing from the past ?

@Vivianne, just click on your profile and at the top of your profile page you'll see "write a public message on your own feed".

@jillar I must be crazy or blind (at least I am one of two... ) but I can't find it anywhere

As Jillar says ...scroll down to the bottom ...it should be there ...

@Vivianne, you need to enable status updates in your account settings. Click on account settings and at the right it will say other settings, Click on EDIT Profile and you'll see the box to check that says enable staus updates

Or you can just go to your page again and where your cover pic is on the upper right you'll see edit profile. Click on that and you'll see the box to check to enable status updates
