How do I start a blog?

Title says it all really.

 

I really was expecting the 'Blogs' page to have something about 'start a blog' or perhaps some guidance on what makes a good blog / tips etc.

As I said use Google search

Starting a Blog

Many members choose to record their project by using the forum’s blog facility. A blog is a great way of recording your progress and sharing it with others. The blog functionality can be enabled via a request using the Contact Us link at the bottom of the forum. Once the functionality has been enabled you will have the ability to ‘Create Blog’ from within your user profile.

@garrymartin I must be being blind - I had read that, went to my profile and simply can't find anything that suggests 'create a blog'.

I thought it would be under '+Create', but as you can see - I have no option there.

 

Can you advise where it is please?

@JohnMo I too found that - unfortunately it didn't really help.

Why it tells you exactly what to do

 

"The blog functionality can be enabled via a request using the Contact Us link at the bottom of the forum. Once the functionality has been enabled you will have the ability to ‘Create Blog’ from within your user profile."

 

Which is just the same as @garrymartin said

I note in another topic that Buildhub have enabled blogging for you @Great_scot_selfbuild so you should see the option now.
