Clearly, a number of factors played a part, not least the complexity, or should I say richness, of the options, which offer numerous settings. Having said that, I’m glad rather than sorry for this complexity, even though my lack of knowledge of the system is obviously largely responsible for my difficulties. On the one hand, it’s my responsibility, but on the other, it’s normal that people launching a Discourse site can’t master everything right away. I’m well aware that this forum is there to help them - the proof is in the pudding! However, some settings could be better explained, as we’ve discussed here. As for the Flag story, it could clearly benefit from a better explanation. There are certainly some improvements to be made. In any case, many thanks to all those who have contributed and persevered. I confess I was a little discouraged, even though, like everyone else I suppose, I suspected an incorrect parameter was the cause.
