Creating Hashtags
Desktop and Mobile Web
When creating a Post, use hashtags to search all the community content with the same subject. Using a hashtag makes it easier for users to find specific relevant content and categorize messages.
When adding a hashtag, existing hashtags will appear after typing # and then three (3) letters. If no hashtags exist with those three (3) letters, pressing Return/Enter after typing the new hashtag creates it and adds it to the Post.
NOTE: Punctuation and spaces are not supported in hashtags. Instead, use capitalization or the underscore “_”.
For example, #HashtagsAreGreat or #hashtags_are_great
Email (Posts and Comments)
When creating a Post by email, you can add tags to your Post directly from your email client.
Just add a hashtag (#) in the body of the email with your text, and our system will automatically recognize the hashtag and tag the Post.
NOTE: Just like on the web version, punctuation and spaces are not supported in hashtags. When adding a hashtag, do not use a space as it prevents it from being created. Instead, use capitalization or the underscore “_”.
For example, #HashtagsAreGreat or #hashtags_are_great
