Welcome to the WikiHouse community. Here is a quick guide to get you started:

**How to post and comment**

- Reply to a specific post by using the “Reply” button at the bottom _of that post_.

- To reply to the overall topic (collection of posts), rather than a specific post within topic, use the “Reply” button at the very bottom _of that topic_.

- You can tag others. Simply start typing `@` and an autocompleter will pop up.

- When someone replies to your post, quotes you, or mentions your @username, a notification will appear at the top of the page.

- Use the hashtags, or create your own - they can be found under “optional tags”. This helps us keep everything tidy.

**Liking and flagging**

- Like someone’s post by clicking the like ❤ button at the bottom of the post. You can also flag posts via the “flag” button. This will alert the moderators.

**Introduce yourself!**  
We have a [topic](https://community.wikihouse.cc/c/joining-the-community/introduce-yourself/27) just for that! Please tell us a bit more about you and where in the world you are.

**Moderators**  
The forum moderators can be recognised by the “Staff” badge in their profile. They are able to remove any content and any user account for any reason at any time. Ocassionally some posts might require moderator approval.

**The community code of conduct**  
Can be found [here](https://community.wikihouse.cc/t/the-community-code-of-conduct/26).
