Frequently Asked Questions

Adding Articles

The article is different from an Information item in that it can be entirely about you, or something you've seen, or a point of view.

The profile

I realise that the tick-box approach to describing what you do may not be to everyone's taste. But if you've already got an account, you can edit your profile fairly easily to show the world who you are.

Events

One of the things we were asked for was a calendar where everyone could put their events. Well... it's here, as requested!

Images

You can add images to your posts! Here's how...

Contacting others

You can contact another user by selecting the Contact tab on his or her profile page. This then sends an e-mail to their registered e-mail address.

Information items: why and how

An Information item can be used to tell other readers of the site about things may affect or involve them in terms of how they may work in the future, or opportunities in funding, work or training.

Books - why and how

Book pages are useful if several users are writing different things about the same topic, and there is a desire to group the information.

Changing the theme

Go to "My account" and select the edit tab. There are some options there. I may add more themes as the site's used more...

General usage

Anyone can read the pages on the DCDAN site, but to actually USE the site you have to log in or register with the site.

If you don't have an account, select "Create new account".
