    I thought I'd put a saying with my posts, like some others have done, but I have two things I thought I'd put (they seem to have 'come' to me today and I can't get them out of my mind, and they are things I firmly believe in, deep inside)
    However, I seem only to be able to put one saying, and if I press the return key (I think that's what it's called) in order to put the other saying in a new line, the first one comes out and I can't put the second one unless the first one is deleted.

    Is it possible to do this somehow please @Fat Controller @JWK .

    You could try holding the shift key when pressing Enter?
    In honesty I'm not sure of the point of the status feature but you might be better served with the Signature feature instead

      It probably only accepts one word I would guess, not something I bother with though.:smile:

      I agree with Loofah, look at using your Signature instead. I just did a quick test by changing my Status and it doesn't show up on my posts, only if you could be bothered to click on my profile, I can't see it being useful

      I probably meant signature. I don't know the difference really. I saw the words Status Message and thought it was the same thing.
      These two phrases came to me this morning and since other people have signatures I thought I'd have one too.
      It isn't important really, it just seemed a good idea at the time.

        I found the page to write a signature but I've decided not to write anything (for now)
        Thank you all for your help.
