A word about some of the buttons available at the bottom of each page and what they actually do.
The discussion button will create a forum thread for the individual page that you are on when you click on it. These threads are attached to the actual pages (known as a per-page discussion) and will not feature in the forum proper, though they will show up in the recent posts etc. If you click on the discussion button when it shows (0) a forum thread for that page will be started automatically, whether or not you decide to post to it, so try not to click on it when there's a (0) unless you want to post otherwise we end up with masses of empty threads. Once active (ie showing more than 0) the per-page discussions can be reached via the same discussion button at the bottom of each page and these threads are useful places to discuss the content of any particular page.
The content of any particular page can also be rated via the rate button. Useful for letting us all know what works and what doesn't, and which pages are popular, though this feature will probably become more useful when many more pages are added.
Finally, the tags button can be used to assign certain keywords to your page, much like the keywords on your Lulu content pages. When created these tags will show up in the tag cloud on the side menu. The tags in this cloud (and those at the bottom of each tagged page) can be clicked on so that all pages with that particular tag will be listed next to the cloud. The more pages each tag is used on, the darker and larger the tag in the cloud becomes, so the cloud should be a good indicator of overall content on the site. Steppenfreak has used these tags to particularly good effect so take a look at her pages to see how they work. Please note that tags with more than one word, such as 'short stories', need to be written as short-stories, otherwise you'll get one tag for short and one tag for stories. Also, please don't try adding tags to any of the forum pages as a tag added to any of these will automatically appear on all of the forum pages and this would obviously not be good.
I'll add info for the other buttons at a later date, though if you have any questions about any of the buttons, post a reply here and I'll do my best to help.
