RE: Thursday is Butterfly Day and Insect Day Giveaway- Week 48

Yes, I'm super confused because two posts appear and I don't know which one to upvote, or if it matters? How are we supposed to memorize the names/numbers of all the various hives for the communities? Ugh!

I totally dig your honeybee photo! @chromiumone

Normally you would see only one post,just trying to figure out how to posy into the hive feeds.
So I figured out that you need to post from the hive/ community page
lets take insectpub as an example.
To post into this hive I go to the hive page and click on the Blue button that says New Post.

Now set up a post as normal and tag it like always except do not use the hive- tag your already posting into the hives home page and it will post there by default.
Now your post will be in the insectpub feed(only). now after that go to to your profile page click the post section select the post you just made and ReSteem it. This will put it on your Blog page and it will go out to your followers,
If you don;t post from the hive homepage it will not show up in the hive feed unless you cross post it into the hive. You are seeing two posts because I was testing and did a regular post, and cross post, a hive post ect.

Thanks for the awesome writeup!😀
What are you accessing Steemit from? @chromiumone

Unfortuntately, I am stuck at step [minus] one "go to the hive page..."

I spent a couple minutes searching for anything 🔎"hive"🔍 using the esteem app search which resulted in nothing turning up. It's okay though. I know who the people are who regularly post to the hive community and can find the info I need there but "GenPop" does not. We will get there eventually!💫

I use the Regular old Steemit a lot. Sometimes I use SteemPeak.
To check out the "hive" communities I go to my Steemit feed page and to the left is this box

Hit explore communities and subscribe to the ones you want. the one you sub to show up as you see on mine to go to that community just click on it.

I only use the Esteem app from my android smartphone where this functionality is not yet in place

Thank you for all of your help! Making progress with the changes each day @chromiumone🙌

(Unfortunately hyperlinks quit working properly after the last @esteemapp android software update)

We will release 2.2.5, as soon as possible, it has fix for this issue!
