Have you noticed anything new at Educate Truth? Take a second and look at the bottom of your web browser and you’ll see we’ve added a new social bar. It allows you to see how many people are looking at the site currently, and even what part of the world they’re visiting from.
Can’t read English? No problem. You can now translate any page you’re reading into ten other languages.
You can quickly view the most recent posts from any page without having to scroll or return to the main page.
If you’ve read an article you find interesting and would like to share it with some friends, Educate Truth has made it even easier to share. Just click on share and select whether you’d like to email it to some friends or post it on Facebook. If you want to print off a copy, just click print.
Our new social bar is also Twitter friendly and allows you to quickly share articles from Educate Truth through Twitter. If you aren’t following us on Twitter, click here. You can also read our latest tweets without leaving Educate Truth. Just click on the Twitter icon on the right.
If you’re looking for some live conversation concerning current events being covered at Educate truth, try out our new chat feature. Just click on ‘Chat’ and sign in through one of your favorite social media accounts.
But if Twitter, Facebook, or chatting isn’t for you and you’d still like to stay current on what is happening at La Sierra University, you can subscribe to our automated email notification system. You’ll receive an automated notification in your inbox the day new articles are posted.
We hope you enjoy using our new social bar and take advantage of the new features.
All good news.
Is there any way to allow for a 5 minute “edit window” on posts so that we can clean up syntax or spelling typo’s?

View Comment@BobRyan: I’ve added a plugin that should allow you to edit your comments up to 30 min after you’ve made you comment.
Try it out and let me know if it works.

View CommentShane –
When I try to edit the post – the screen goes almost dark … I tried waiting for 30 seconds or so – but it is just stuck so I hit the back-key.
I see the timer for the edit window – but apparently it does not let me edit. It is possible that my browser is blocking the plugin.

No more annoying toolbar.

I added it to restricted sites so it just doesnĆ¢ā¬ā¢t load to begin with.

I just tried the edit option with this reply and get the same blurred transparent black screen; pressing back took me back to the original submit page with my previous text still remaining.
