Blog How To
Friday, September 29th, 2006First off, we’d like to welcome you to our site! This is an informational blog where Kevin will post his thoughts, comments, and other information.
To help you get used to the forum and all of its features, we wrote this guide on using some of the basic features of the site.
Basic Overview
When you load up our site you should get something like this below:
It may not look exactly the same, but it should look similar. We are still working on our website and new content and features are constantly being added!
Navigating the Site
Navigating the site is rather simple. While browsing, you may click our logo to take you back to the homepage.
Other ways of navigation are the sidebar, found on the right side of each page. It should look something like this:
First you will find “Archives”, where you can find posts to the blog by month. The next block is Categories, where you will find links to navigate the posts by their subject. After that, you will find the Links block, where we will put links to useful or related sites for your viewing. The last block is the “Meta” Block, this allows you to register to our blog, though this is not needed to view our blog and post comments.
Viewing posts and posting comments
Posts typically look something like this on our main page:
When you click on the title (in this pictures case, would be “Welcome to my Blog”), it brings up the full post, which looks like this:
Below the Post you can post comments related to the post. In the text box, you can type your comment. When you’re done, click the “submit comment” which will soon be posted after. Before a post can be viewed by others, it will be reviewed by moderators. This is to help keep out Spam and other unwanted content in the comments area. Comments should be approved within 24 hours and will be up for others viewing. If you have a question, feel free to post it, and Kevin will answer it as soon as possible.
If you have any more questions, you may ask them in the comments to this post.
