I’m new, how do I log in?
Upon arrival to the Rugby Community, in the top right hand corner, there is a link titled ‘Join This Site’. Once clicked, it will take you to a page where you can create your profile, username, and password.

*IMPORTANT* If you already have a login/profile, do NOT create another one.

At this time you may also request that the sites admin elevate you to a: fan, player, alumni, etc.

I don’t remember my password, how do I reset it?
Click on the ‘Forgot password?’ link. Enter your user name and an email will be sent to the address you had provided upon signing up. Once the email has been received, copy the system generated password from the email, head to the Rugby Community and provide your username along with that password then click the Login button. Once in it is recommended that you visit your profile page and change your password to something you can remember.

The password sent didn’t work, now what?
Click on the ‘Forgot password?’ link one more time. Once you receive the email, copy the new password, enter your username, and paste the new password into the password field and click the Login button. If that does not work, please contact support.

How do I change my password?
Once logged in, go to your profile page (link in the top right hand corner). It will ask you for your current password and also for your new password.

I’m logged in and a few new items appeared. Is this a glitch?
New items will appear on your screen, once logged in, that are context sensitive to your credentials. The forums, communicator indicator and communications link, and a few extra folders will appear such as the member’s folder, member’s resource and any extra folders you have the rights to see.

Does every body that visits the site have access to all that I see as a logged in member?
No, visitors/guests do not get to see the secured items that only site members get to see. They do get to see all of the pages that the site admin has placed in the public folder, your home page, your contact us page, your about (your club), and any event that is publicly visible.

What about guests or other members from other sites?
Guests and members from other sites are also limited to what they see. They are given access to only the items you mark as visible to the public.

I don’t see how to edit pages, where should I look?
If you were given the rights, the admin folder should be visible in the left navigation area. The admin folder contains the ‘Web Page Manager’. The ‘Web Page Manager’ is the centralized area where you would edit the contents of your local sight. Also, at the bottom of every page you have rights to edit, there is a link titled ‘Edit this page’ that will take you to the editor with that specific page pre-loaded. If you do not have the rights to edit pages, and you feel that you should, please contact your Webmaster or Officer and ask for the rights. If you have no Webmaster or Officer, please contact support by emailing Support@RobotBuildersInc.com.

How do I access the forum area?
Once logged in, there will be two new items in the top navigation bar and one of those items is title ‘Forums’. Simply click that link to enter the forum area. Note you may have many different forum areas made available to you based on your participations in the Rugby Community. Look at the bottom of the page to see if there are any forum areas you can manage. If you are able to manage forum categories it is important that you setup these categories for your member base. Lastly it is important to realize that the Forum areas follow you around when you visit other areas of the system. They are not responsive to where you are but rather to whom you are and are delivered to you as you navigate through the various Communities and Sites.

How do I create a thread within the forum area?
Once in the forum area, choose the topic you wish to place a thread and click on it. Once there, at the bottom of the page is a ‘Create a Thread’ link. Click on it and it will take you to an interface where you will choose your expression or purpose of your post I.E. general discussion, asking a question, teaching others, or making an announcement. It will ask for the title and then the body. Very soon we will open this up to allow for optional avatars to replace the more business-esque functionality of the Question, Answer and announcement format. Do note that if you are asking a good question, follow up question or answering a well formed question in your post you are encouraged to use the templates accordingly. This will allow us to later reproduce the information in different formats. For instance, by looking to the posts being flagged as not having a Solution or having a Solution, it can be monitored more closely or reproduced in a FAQ format. We can over time learn to draw many conclusions from the information we gather if we flag that information in predictable ways.

How do I add a post to a thread?
Once you are in the thread you wish to create a post, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the ‘Create new post’ link. It will take you to an interface where you will select your expression or purpose for adding a post I.E. asking a follow up question, answering a question, or adding a general comment or thought.

How do I add events to my calendar?
Once logged in, on any page that has the calendar visible, there will be a ‘Create’ button underneath the calendar. Once clicked, simply enter the visibility level, date, and the information you wish. Once it is saved, it will automatically mark the calendar with a blue square on the day you created an event.

How does information get to the Meetings & Events page?
Once an event is created, that event will automatically appear on the mini calendar and upon the ‘Meetings and Events’ page. If an event is created at a higher level (such as your Territory Union or your Local Area Union) and marked to be shared with the subsequent levels, then the events created will flow down to all of the subordinate tiers.

Why would I want to drive around and visit other Community Websites?
The main purpose for visiting other’s websites is to interact with one another. In visiting other’s sites, you get the chance to participate in their local forums, make connections within the Community whether it for business or recreational, gather ideas for your own site, gather ideas for your own club, be in the know of your neighboring clubs and most importantly, to help make you feel apart of a Community.

Is there a place I can find other club sites?
To view other sites, simply click on the ‘Browse Community Web Sites’ link found at the top of the screen right underneath the banner ad. This will take you to a screen with a list of community participants.
