    • You can also click and drag the gray box on the scroll bar to move quickly to a different position on the page.

To do some tasks, you will click buttons, links, or menus on the Nextdoor website:

• Buttons on the website will be shown in a special font. For example: [POST], [REPLY], [THANK].

• Links on the website will be shown in a special font. For example: Inbox, Neighbors, Map.

• Menu names will be shown in a special font. For example: Invite, Choose neighbors.

  When you click a menu, a list of items will come into view. Click the item that you want to use.

  For example, you will see a menu with your first name (such as Terry) at the top right corner of each Nextdoor page. When you click this menu, a list of items will come into view. You can click these items to set up your profile and your Nextdoor settings. For help with your profile and settings, see Chapter 7, How to Change Your Nextdoor Settings, Section 7.1, “Your Profile”.
