New members<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A new GIN club member gets added to the web site with simply his email entered. WordPress will automatically create an impossibly long password and send the member an email suggesting he logs in and changes his password. Check in “junk” or “spam” if you don’t find the email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideally the member should then log-in<\/a> to the system and complete entry of his personal information<\/a> such as phone numbers and address. He can also decide what activities he wants to join and sign up for them.  Click here to see the list of activities<\/a>, then click here to see how to sign up for activities<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few members will find the above rather daunting. In this case simply send the information in an email to Mark Watts and I’ll enter it for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Existing members (there are 2 ways of using the site)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Basic use<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Any member can simply ignore the suggested password and use the link to the site to consult the list of members, the distribution lists, the calendar of events or the blog. No password is needed to view any of this information. This is illustrated below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click on: Who are we?<\/a>  to see the list of activities with descriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calendar of Events<\/a> shows all scheduled events<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Member Details<\/a> gives the names, email addresses, phone numbers and physical addresses of all members. It also shows this information by activity. Also which members are signed up for each activity and the activity coordinators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distribution Lists<\/a> has a distribution list of all members and one for each activity. This can then be directly copied into the address space of an email. Instructions are included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Blog<\/a> contains entries by any member. Usually a summary of an event. Every member can add to the Blog<\/a> but must be logged-in first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The User Guide<\/a> shows step by step instructions for many of the things you may want to do in the web site, including logging in, creating a blog entry, signing up to an activity, creating a calendar event … See below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
