Recent Updates to Mushroom

Hello everybody!

I have been busy making a couple of useful updates so want to share this news.

First, due to a recent spate of meme posts, I have created a new space for memes to avoid cluttering the blogging area too much. The memes can be found here: https://mushroom-scholars.org/topics/meme

Please continue to share memes; I don’t want to discourage that, but we need to keep the blogging area manageable. Also, I have removed the XP award for memes to avoid XP farming by just posting lots of memes 😉

The second update is the addition of a series option when writing. The idea for this is to enable students who post chapters of a longer to add their own series tag to their work. I have taken the liberty of adding a series tag to a few of our frequent bloggers by way of example, which you can see here. This is still a bit beta and might need a bit of fine tuning but it works so anybody writing posts as part of a series can go ahead and use it. You can find the series tags box on the post editing screen as shown in the screenshot below:

Happy blogging and meme sharing 😀 !

Upcoming improvements…

  1. Uploading coding projects to embed directly into webpages.
  2. Money, shop and equipment to improve the RPG part of Mushroom.
  3. Customisable animated character and background on profile pages.
