What should I do when I set up an account?

When you set up your account, you are required to provide a new password. However, there are some other things that you might want to consider. Here's a description of your options:

• Rich Text Editor Settings: There's a lot that you can tweak here. But, if you aren't comfortable with HTML, you should be careful. There are really just two things that you will want to set:
  • Default State: This determines whether you will use the Rich Text Editor by default. If you are comfortable with HTML, you can set this to Disable. If you aren't, keep it enabled and move on.
  • Language: The default setting for this is English. If you want to try another language for the Rich Text Editor, try changing it.
• Personal Contact Form: This allows people to contact you via email using a form, rather than revealing your email address in your profile. It is not recommended to change this, but you may if you like.
• Default Time Zone: The default is "Africa/Johannesburg", but you may set it to whatever time zone describes you.

We are going to be adding new features to the profiles, so you may soon have more options. You might want to check your profile occasionally.

You can edit these items any time you like by following the "My account" link, or by clicking here.
