MicrosoftIn My Settings, what are Macros and how do I use them?
From Posting Help page:
Can I create "canned" or "boilerplate" responses?
Yes. You can use macros to create boilerplate text that you can paste into any message. You can create up to 9 macros.
To set up a macro for boilerplate text:
- Sign in to the community.
- Go to My Settings > Macros.
- Enter a short but memorable name in the Macro Title field.
- In the Macro box, enter your boilerplate text. (You can use HTML tags if your community allows it.)
- Click Save.
Tip: To add text at the bottom of your posts, you can include that text your signature instead of using a macro.
To add your boilerplate text to a post:
- Go to a post.
- In the comment area, place your cursor where you want to add the boilerplate text.
- Open the Macros menu and select the macro you want to add.

Can you give some examples for boilerplate text ? Thks
I can't find any examples of someone in this community using a macro with bolierplate text, but boilerplate text is essentially any standard content you would want to include. I imagine most folks will (if they bother with it ) either add a tagline about themselves or their company, or put up some kind of disclaimer about their opinions being their own, etc.
I created the following as an example macro (for my company):
