How to do and General Questions asked about this site:
How to go back to the main forum page…….All you have to do is click on the main logo at the top of the page and this will take you back to the main page.
Spoiler..... Just use.... [spoiler] add your text and add the same first bit again but this time add a / before the word spoiler without a space.
Adding more than one Picture…….Go ahead and write your post, once you have added one picture go back and edit your post and just add another picture from the browse button.
Adding a Picture without typing anything……Click on your space bar a few times then add your Picture.
Where does someone live……If you go to the members area, click on the tab that a person name starts with and if they have any information lists in their location, just click on the name of the location and it will bring up a little map, its not a detailed one but better than nothing, it also tells you if others live in that State.
Koalas on the forums………these little Koalas’s are very important as this is what tells you if there are a new post in each forum if you are a signed in member.
Once you sign in if the Koala moves there is a post you haven’t viewed, if you don’t want to read a post just click on “mark all forums read” at the bottom of the forums and this will stop them from moving till next time.
Green Arrows in forums…..If you click one of those arrows, you will be automatically taken to the first new post since your last visit to that topic.
Avatars……You can upload an image file from your computer to be used as an avatar. If the image is too big, it will be automatically re sized,(unless it is real large) but remember when something is re sized you can loose some of the effect. Sometimes you have to refresh a few times before you Avatar will change.
Starting a poll……Start a new topic, and click the Add Poll link.
If you cannot see an Add poll link, make sure that
• You are starting a new topic, not replying to an existing topic, and
• The administrator of the board allows you to start polls.
A poll consists of a question, at least two options, and an optional length (the number of days the poll will run leave 0 or blank for no limits). You can also specify whether you want your poll to be multiple choices or not. Multiple choice polls allow users to select more than one option.
Most of these questions are also in the help section in the box at the top on the left-hand side.
Chat Room…….All you need to do is just click on the link and you will auto be sent on your way, no need to log in, the chat room also has private rooms you can enjoy.
Forum Jumper….Great little thing if your in a hurry, all you have to do is click on the link its above the box where you sign in or out, depending on how you use this you might have to click back on “Forum Jumper” to take the new box that pops up away.
Pm’s…….They are simple enough to use, if you want to delete all pm’s all you have to do is click on your in box then click on “Super Zap” a new box will ask you are you sure you want to delete, just click yes or no, same thing with your send box. This will get rid of all of the pm’s and save you deleting one at a time.
If there is a pm you want to keep you can send them off to your archives, to do this all you have to do is click on the white box next to the pm you want to keep, then you will see at the top….”write new/delete selected/Choose folder/Move Selected. In the Choose Folder there is an arrow click on that and a drop down box show up, click on Archived items and next to that it will have “Move Selected” click on that and your pm will go into the Archives for you .
Rankings....
0 = 1 koala
100 = 2 koalas
500 = 3 koalas
1500 = 4 koalas
3000 = 5 koalas
5000 = 6 koalas
These Rankings at the moment are not correct.
Members Profiles.... This has been turn off from viewing for members own privacy.
Adding a u tube clip.....This can be done different ways but here is one way.
Say you have this clip you want added..........
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39YUXIKrOFk
What you have to do is go to the red f above and change the code to
http://www.youtube.com/v/39YUXIKrOFk
So what you need to do is take out the "watch?" then after the v "take out the =" and replace this with a /.
Make sure you don't double up on the http:// at the start or it want work.
Report Button.......This is on top right hand side of every post, if you feel a post needs to be reported due to context or something use this button and it will take you to a pm section where you can add your concerns.
Ignore Button......This is also found at the top right hand corner on every post, this can be used if you don't want to read someones post, all you have to do is click on a post from said person and hit ignore, this will stop the post from said person showing. To read said persons post again just do the same but hit unignore.
If there is anything else you need help or are wondering just send a pm off and we will add it here.
