FORUM USER'S MANUAL

Infopop's UBB6ª User Guide
Community Home (Categories & Forums)

What is this Page?
We call this the Community Home, or Categories & Forums interface, because it displays all of the community's Forums and the Categories into which they are organized. It's the "home base" of UBB.

What Can I Do Here?

  • Click on the link for a particular forum to see all of the topics contained within.
  • See all active topics for the day.
  • Register to become a member of this community.
  • Read the Frequently Asked Questions about UBB.
  • Search for information using keywords, dates, etc.

A - Today's Active Topics - Clicking on this link will take you to a compiled list of all topics with posting activity in the last 24 hours, in chronological order.

B - Forum Name - The forum names are clickable links that you can use to drill into the forums themselves.

C - My Profile - When you register for UBB6ª, the information you provide is kept in your personal profile. Clicking on "my profile" will allow you to view and edit your personal profile information, including your display name, email, and password; and view your user ratings and private messages.

Register - The first time you visit UBB6ª, you may have to register as a new user before you can actively participate. Clicking on the "register" link will take you to the registration form for this board. That information then becomes part of your profile, above.

Search - UBB6ª has a search function to help you find what you need. Click the "search" link at the top right corner of each page to search by keyword, forum, date, or author name. Once you've narrowed the search, UBB6ª will return links to all results matching your query.

FAQ - UBB6ª comes with a built-in list of Frequently Asked Questions. Clicking on the FAQ link will open a new window, where you can see answers to some common questions about navigating the UBB6 interface.

NOTE: Clicking on a Moderator's hyperlinked name will take you to that Moderator's profile, where you can see personal and contact information, or send a private message.
