How to use the new forum
Posted: 07 Dec 2014, 16:10
This is the first of what I hope will be a short series of "How To" posts explaining some of the features of the new forum.
I started writing a post about how to adjust your settings in the "User Control Panel" but it got way too long so I've decided to chop it into bits and post them here in this thread with descriptive names. It could take a while - please bear with me.
The "User Control Panel" is accessed by clicking the link at the top left of the main page, under where it says "Board index".
The User Control Panel is arranged as a row of four tabs, each with a number of menu items below it.
The first tab is called "Overview" and has four menu items:
"Front page" is just a summary of your activity. When you joined, how many posts you've made etc.
"Manage subscriptions, bookmarks, drafts and attachments" can all be ignored for now.
The other tabs will be explained in later posts.
