We ALL learnt something new in the call when it comes to layout and pinned posts - WOW I do love this work;

Q - HOW MANY POSTS CAN YOU PIN ON YOUR HOME PAGE?

A- (from Substack chat bot) - The specific number of posts you can pin at the top of your homepage depends on the layout you choose:

  • Feature and Highlight layouts: You can pin one post at the top.

  • Newspaper layout: You can pin three posts at the top.

  • Magazine layout: You can pin five posts at the top.

Hi all

How’s your day going?

Things are beautifully busy here. We’ve had long summer days, I’ve done some rearranging our cupboards (so satisfying) and moving through some decision making in my business and home life.

August is my ‘month off’ work. For clearing out my brain, to help me gear up for the last chapter of the year, to let inspiration land. That said we do have a few connection points.

  • The writing room is open every day 24/7 - NB I have to let you in the first time so I will be online to do that tomorrow 12-4pm UK time for the LAST time over summer.

  • The chat circle (*) is open for you to start chats / ask questions etc. I won’t be in there but

    Mika
    will be now and again if you get stuck and need support. You can also add url links to your notes if you need support. It’s for paid subs only.

  • There are tonnes of open chat threads for you to join in with right here. From joyful growth to collaborations - go mingle and chat?

  • The A-Z is up to date so you should be able to find any tutorial or post to help you in there.

  • Lots of folks get clarity when they run through the 30 day set up your home page challenge. So check it out if you fancy getting super proud of your set up on your Substack!

How to get started with our paid subscriber chat

  1. Get the Substack app by clicking this link or the button below. New chat threads won’t be sent sent via email, so turn on push notifications so you don’t miss conversation as it happens. You can also access chat on the web.

Get app

  1. Open the app and tap the Chat icon. It looks like two bubbles in the bottom bar, and you’ll see a row for my chat inside.

  1. That’s it! Jump into my chat circle to say hi, and if you have any issues, check out Substack’s FAQ.
