Hello @joybringer1, Thanks for your private message. I really like your member name joybringer - I'm hoping 2021 will be a joy bringer also. We all can certainly use some...joy 😊 I thought I would answer your private message in this discussion - [TIP] How to Use Connect: Step-by-step Instructions.

You mentioned you were having trouble posting and could not like a post but can reply OK. When you are reading the posts in a discussion, under each post is a REPLY button and I think this is how you have been posting. If you don't want to reply, just scroll to the bottom of the discussion and type your new post message into the box above the POST REPLY button and then click the button when you are done typing. If you see a post you really like, all you need to do is click the small heart on the left side under the text of a post and it will turn blue. The person who typed the post will receive a notification that you liked their post.

Happy New Year to you also!
