Test Messages Forum Tips Tricks and Help

hi all,
this is a forum test message to kick us off.  you can reply to this message to test the forum or ask how to questions about the forum.

The best method to find messages of interest is to scroll down the individual forum page to see all the topics and post a msg under the one that interests you. If you don't see a topic on point, you can create a new "Topic" or email the administrator who will set it up for you.

If your time of message posting is off, open your user profile, scroll near the bottom and select the time zone of the city nearest you or send the admin an email and I will fix it.

You efforts getting this up and running have not gone unnoticed ... Sir Gandalf!

Hi J,
please try posting a new topic now. I was able to get a new topic posted using a test user account.

I am beginning to like this forum software now that it seems to be working!  It would be handy in the "select a forum" below was at the top of the page.  Can the placement be modified?

you can click on the forum or sub-forum name at the top to jump to other pages as well
