Posting and Commenting

Posts and comments are composed of "segments". There can be any number of segments, and the order of segments can be freely changed in the composer. There are four types of segments:

When viewing the post page, each of these segments are visible in their entirety. In various out places, a shortened "feed preview" is shown instead. The composer shows a preview of both the shortened version and the full page contents before you can publish the post.

The formatting of the post is altered for Tinylogs: all headings are converted to level 3.

When making a new post, what you enter in the "New post" prompt becomes the body text of the post and the title will be left blank. You can then edit the post to add a title, if necessary. However, if you begin the text entered into the prompt with a level 1 heading (#), that first line will be extracted and used as the post title. In issue tracker subspaces, the first line is always used as the issue title.

Special Commands

In the "New post" and "Comment" prompts, there are special commands available:

In the "Edit text" prompts of the draft composer:

Undoing Mistakes

When editing segments in the draft composer, you may sometimes accidentally submit the input and overwrite the contents, losing some text that you meant to keep in there. While Bubble does not currently keep a history of past edited versions, your client may be able to help you. If you navigate backwards, the old contents of the segment may be found in a cached copy of the page.

Follows

You can follow posts, subspaces, and users to be notified of their activity, and to select what is visible in the Followed feed.

When you vote in a poll, the post is automatically marked as followed so you will be notified of discussion related to it even though you haven't commented on the poll yourself.

Follows are entirely private in Bubble. Only you see what you follow, and there are no counters or statistics about this visible anywhere. Followers do not affect the "hotness" sorting order, either.
