In your profile page, create a post. Please note that if you want your post’s content to appear in the hashtag’s aggregation page, you must add an image.
Next, hit the spacebar on your keyboard and type in ‘#’ followed by the keywords of your choice. (Or you can type in a pre-set hashtag to enter one of our events: Event Page) As you type, hashtags matching your text will be recommended, to select a recommended hashtag, click on it in the dropdown list.
Please Note that in order for a hashtag to become effective, it must start with a ‘#’ and when you’re done with each hashtag, hit the spacebar on your keyboard. (Meaning between each hashtag, there must be a “space”)
You can add an unlimited number of hashtags, and it can be in any language.
When done, click “Post”
