Can someone tell me  how to use the status update please ???

, i cant understand it and i have been  looking everywhere  on how to do it 

😡

On your profile page, under Achievements, there's a section that says, "Write a public message on your own feed...". I think that's where you update your status.

i am a new member, maybe it's my rank as i can't see it  but thank you 

Can't see it either (I see the "achievements" section but it just lists my rank and my rep there)

Does that facility only work on a desktop,maybe?

i am on a desktop

Try going here: https://www.scienceforums.net/profile/145388-existential-dreams/content/?type=core_statuses_status&change_section=1

Your content page has a Status Update section to the left. Click on that and it should let you post something to update your status.

I followed the link and its just like this 

no way to input anything regardless of clicking?

 

i clicked my activity 

then status updates

Don’t bother. Nobody reads them anyway

That's not true. I read them, and then I think, should I do that? And then I don't.

 

I just updated my status, and I'll put in a note with the Admins that not everybody sees the links in their profiles. On the home page, https://www.scienceforums.net/ , to the right side under Topics is a section called Recent Status Updates. Under that, my screen has a prompt that says "What's on your mind?" that lets me post a Status Update from there.

Mine doesn't have  that either,

I checked a few accounts, and it looks like both you and geordief can't use Status Updates. It's probably something you have checked off that limits other's ability to post on your page, including yourselves. It's not a newbie thing. I can post to other people's Status pages, but for yours and geordief's, those fields don't appear. I would make sure you haven't disabled this ability on your end, and I'll have an Admin take a look on the back end.

Edit to add: if you Edit Profile, under your birthday is a toggle for enabling Status Updates. Make sure that's switched on.

Thank you for all the help got it i can post now 

Sorry about that  lol  it was in the profile under birthday  toggled off 

just tried to post test and still cant see it 

edit: 

its works now
