How To...

M.DAYTUM.COM

The Daytum mobile site has been optimized for use on the iPhone and is compatible with the Android browser.

1. When you have logged into m.daytum.com you will be greeted with the ADD PAGE, this is a streamlined way to submit your entries.

2. To use the add field, simply start typing an item name and a list of the matching entries will appear below the field. Click on the item you wish to update, and the form field will be filled with the proper syntax to record an entry.

3. If no amount is specified after the item name, an amount of 1 will be used when you click the ADD button, or enter a different amount after the : to submit a quantity other than 1.

4. After clicking ADD, your entry will be added and appear in a grey button below the add field. Click this button again to re-add the entry, or click the ( ) link to remove the entry. Categories can also be added to items, by clicking the ( ) link associated with the entry.

5. Click the MORE button at the bottom of the entries list to see additional records in groups of five.

6. If you would like to submit with a time other than the present, simply press the ( ) link next to the date field at the top of the page and change the entry time.

7. By clicking the DISPLAYS link, you can also view and edit your panels. This view of your page also allows entry submission via the standard quick-add field, as well as the creation of new statements and displays.

TWITTER SUBMISSIONS

Using a free Twitter account, submitting entries to your page is possible from your mobile device through a choice of the Twitter mobile site, third-party Twitter clients or text messages.

1. Enable mobile submissions by entering your Twitter credentials in the SETTINGS area of your Daytum page. This will use your credentials once to activate direct messaging between Daytum and your account by setting them to follow each other.

2. Post entries to your page using the syntax:

- ITEM is the name of the item you wish to add to. If the item does not exist, a new one will be created.

- AMOUNT is the quantity you would like to add. It will be timestamped with the time it arrives. If you leave off the amount, a quantity of 1 will be added.

3.When adding a new item, or to differentiate between items with the same name, this syntax may be used to incorporate categories:

4.When your entry has been successfully added to your page, you will receive a confirmation direct message from Daytum (this can take a few minutes).

5. To be reminded of the Twitter syntax:

6. To activate submissions by text message, you will need to authenticate your phone on the Twitter site (http://twitter.com/devices). You can decide here whether you would like to receive text message confirmations of your mobile submissions. Please note that text message submissions can become congested and may occassionally take up to several hours to be recorded. For this reason, we suggest using the Twitter mobile site, or a free third-party client like Twitterific for your iPhone.
