I understand that celiac.com doesn't want people promoting their own home pages.

What about a link to a specific, lengthy science post on my site? I really don't want to paste a lot of material into a post here, but I think the information would be of value to the members.

Peter, the place to put information about your website is in your profile - that is where the link belongs. You may refer to your link in a post and tell people to check our your website or something specific on it in a post, by referring them to your profile, but not put the specific link itself in the post. Links to other sites (than your own) are permitted in posts..

I was wondering about an on-site blog? I thought it would be fun to collect things right here on celiac.com. I don't know that other board members know how to get to blogs from people's profiles.

My interpretation of the rule would be that linking to your blog here at celiac.com is not a violation.

Linking to another site with your content is against the rule. The reasons are complicated--if you really want to know, send me a personal message and I'll reply.

No worries. I think disallowing personal offsite links is a good policy. There are too many who would take advantage of free publicity.

I just answered someone with my favorite recipe blog links and thought how nice it would be if I could store the list somewhere instead of hunting down my post because the question is bound to come up again. The onsite blog will work perfectly.

I was wanting to repost some of my blogs from my personal site here on the celiac.com blog feature but I can't figure out how to make it work. I can click on blog and post a comment but not write a blog. How does it work?

I'm not certain but when I looked at "blogs" I saw a button on the right, above the other blogs that said "Create a new blog" (or something like that). I clicked it and it gave me the rules to agree to. Did you do that? I didn't want a blog so I didn't go any further.

Click your name in the upper-right corner to get to "manage blogs" on the dropdown. There is a create blog button on that page. Once you have created it, there is an "add entry" button on the regular blogs tab from the main page. You also get a "blog this" button that shows up on all the posts from the board, which is nice for saving a post you think might help someone else.

Thanks. I don't have "manage blogs" in my drop down or a "create new blog" link available. Maybe I'm too new?

Is it ok to post links to new blogs in status updates? I'm often sharing gluten-free recipes and would prefer not to redo them all in order to share here, and the services I offer on another part of the site are locally based.

When you click on the pull-down triangle to the right of your name, you should get this menu:

My Profile

My Settings

My Content

My Liked Content

Messenger (? New)

Manage Friends

Manage Ignored Users

Manage Blogs

You are not "too new," there is no eligibility requirement.

Posting status updates which refer to your blog would, in my interpretation of the rules, be acceptable.

While on the subject of blogs, I have been noticing the "Blog this" button and wondering about it. Now that Skylark has mentioned it, it has disappeared from down the lefthand corner next to"Report" :wacko:

Hi Peter,

I would qualify the above with ONLY if they are hosted on Celiac.com

Referring just to 'Your Blog' leaves it open to to interpretation, leaving the impression that, Blogger or Wordpress etc links are acceptable - Which they are not!

I found that out the hard way.

David,

We are talking about "status updates" made in your profile page, not posts to the board. Status updates are seen only by members who view the person's profile, either by going to their profile page, or clicking on the timy "View Profile" icon to the right of the member's name.

The proper place to post your Web site, business or other services is in your profile, not in your signature block or in posts.

Nope. I've got all the other links, but not "Manage Blog"

I don't have 'Manage Blog' either. Maybe because I don't have a blog?

Could be. Hmm.

Try clicking on "Blogs" near the top left. It's sort of floating in space under the main option line. See if you can create one from there.

I don't see anything that says "Blogs" there. The only thing there is:

Okay, I got what to do. Click "Blogs" in the main Option line. Then you will get a button pop up under "Mark Board as Read" on the right hand side which says "Create New Blog" :D How come I didn't figure that out before???:blink:

Okay, so I went out and locked the door behind me, came back in through the main front door (using my key), signed in again, and I'm sorry to say that "Blogs" is still not there, circled or otherwise :P

It seems like the drop down menu by the user name in top right of the screen is context sensitive. When I first looked for it I was reading this thread after doing "view new content". I could see the manage blog link at the bottom of the drop down menu like Peter said.

Then I clicked on the main forum link and checked and the drop down menu again. And the manage blog link was no longer there. In fact the whole menu list had changed.

We seem to have a variable, context sensitive menu system here. Kind of like the weather report, we can't tell which way it is going to blow...

Mebbe it is something to do with one's browser? I use Firefox. Peter's page looks a bit different to mine.

Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces! Considering...

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
