Still Baffled

Even though I’ve been using Jamroom now for several years I am still at a loss as to why people cannot post to the profiles of other users that they follow. I’d like for our users to be able to do this.
Is this associated some how with the timeline settings?

Thank you.

In this regard the profiles timeline feature functions more like Twitter. It sounds like your expectations are that it functions more like Facebook.

Here's a picture of Elon Musk's profile on Twitter: (screenshot)

You'll see there is no way for me to type anything onto his profile. But if Elon Musk were to write a message that included @jamroom then it will show up on my twitter feed under MENTIONS category. (screenshot)

Its the same with jamroom.

If "Simon" writes a note that mentions another user eg: @admin then "Admin" will see that in their MENTIONS section.

Thank you Michael for explaining it so clearly.
I suppose people’s Blogs could function in a similar way to what I was thinking.
Thanks again - Alex.
