Tutorial on How to Open Locked Posts

Jun 22, 2009 00:44

Before posting further comments why you can't open the page to a translation please read and go through this post.

If you read on the side bar it says Note:
indicates a locked entry; you will need to join/friend the LJ in order to view the translations.
The status of a locked or unlocked post may change after it has been updated soa link without a
might also turn out to be locked.

This is a tutorial on how to view locked posts. It applies to both links in this chart or in any other translation listing.
Before starting if you do not have an LJ account then sign up first :)

STEP 1
You click on a translation you want to see.




STEP 2
But it gives you this page, right? Go to the URL box above.
The URL says something like http://community.livejournal.com/t0m0m0/3903.html
So to go to the community's main page delete the ending part so you get http://community.livejournal.com/t0m0m0/
And then click GO or press enter




STEP 3
You should be able to see the main page. Click on the above where it says "join community"




STEP 4
You should get something like this. Click on Join Community.




STEP 5 (optional)
If you want the community's updates to appear on your friend's page click on add and customize the friend group as you wish.
Click cancel if you don't want the community's updates on your friend's page.




STEP 6
After you have joined the community, return to where you were in step one and click the link once again.
Or enter the link in the URL box, in this example it would be http://community.livejournal.com/t0m0m0/3903.html
This time the translation should appear.




This should be clear but if you still have a question then leave a comment.
