| 1. How do I get access to my unit information? |
| If the site admin has limited the access to the unit's information you will need an Access ID and password to view that section of the site. You can use the Contact link in the bottom menu to contact the site admin or ask your unit leader for the Access ID and password.
If you have the Access ID and password, click on the Unit Information link. When the Authentication window opens enter the Access ID/User Name and Password. Note these fields are case sensitive. |
| 2. What is the Sign-in link used for? |
| If you want you can register your email address & a user name with our site. When you registered we'll allow you to post photos & view email addresses in the unit roster.
To setup your user name, click on the Sign-in link. When the window opens, click New User, enter your name, email address & any other information you want about yourself. We'll email you a password to use the first time you sign-in. You can change your password when you sign-in. This is a password just for your user name & is not related to the Access ID. If you allow, we'll set a cookie (small safe bit of data) on your machine, so you will not have to sign-in each time you visit our site. |
To be able to post photos we ask that you register your email address and setup a personal User Name. That way we know who is posting photos to our site.
To setup an User Name and register an Email address you need to click on the Sign-in link at the top of the page, then click 'New User'. After you create your user name and enter your email address we'll email you a starting password. This is so we can confirm your email address. After you receive the email, you can use the Sign-in link to enter your personal User Name and the password we sent you. The first time you Sign-in you can change your password to anything you would like and we'll set a cookie (small safe bit of data) on your machine so that you will not have to Sign-in each time you visit our site.
After you are Signed-in you will see your User Name at the top of the page, go to the album you want to add photos to. If you do not see your User Name, refresh the page. If you still do not see your User Name, the problem may be that your browser is not allowing us to set a cookie.
In the menu at the bottom of the photo album will be a link to Upload Photo. This link will open our upload page and allow you to upload your photos to our photo album. |
| 4. How do I add an event to the Calendar? |
| To enter a calendar event, you can click on the 'add new' link from the Unit Homepage. This will open a form window to enter your event information. When you submit a calendar event you will get a 'view before post' page. There you can enter your webadmin or leader password (if you know it), so the event will post instantly. If the password is not used the event data will be saved but will not show in until it is approved with a leader or webadmin password. |
