How do I start using LunchTable?

Start at the Cafeteria. Click around the tables here and see if something interests you. If, instead, you have an idea for a new group, use the link at the top of the page to create a table.

How do I add/follow/friend people?

The smallest entity on LunchTable that you can follow is a table. Simply click the heart next to the table's name to favorite it. You will see when new content is posted to your favorite tables from your Notebook.

How do I customize my profile?

At the top of your Profile, click Edit Profile. Then click any highlighted section to edit the text shown there, change it, and click "OK" to save it.

To customize the look of your profile, go to Edit Profile, then click Design. The Simple editor will allow you to change your background and other colors of your page. Alternatively, the Advanced editor will let you add custom CSS to style your entire page. Currently, it'll require a little hacking on your part to figure out element class names and ID's.

What HTML can I use on LunchTable?

In most places, you can use basic formatting tags (e.g. <b> or <strong>, <i> or <em>, <s>, etc.). If you would like to link to another site (or a page on LunchTable), you can simply paste the URL, starting with http://, to have it automagically made into a link.
