Progressive U Creative Writing

There are a couple known problems when using the Safari browser on Apple Mac computers:

• The link button in the rich-text editor (the form you use for creating posts) doesn't work.
• The bottom part of the two sidebars at the right side of the screen is sometimes cut off. This causes problems when you want to post, because the Navigation menu, which includes the "create content" and "my account" links, is on that part of the screen.
  

Posting photos can be tricky at times, but it can be done if you keep a few things in mind during the process.
It is usually best to write the text of your post prior to inserting the photos where you want them. Once you have your text entered, follow these steps:

So, now you've got your account set up, you've started posting a few stories, and you would like to reply to some of the comments on your stories - or maybe leave a comment on someone else's story - and you'd like to know how to get that cool little signature set up, right?

That's easy! Just follow these steps, and you'll have a signature to include famous quotes, a favorite quote, or even a link to your favorite blog title.

First, go to your account page by clicking on "My account" in the navigation menu on the right side of the screen.

You'll notice every time you decide to "post a new blog entry" that there is a field below the main text area that reads "Input format". The default is set to "Full HTML". This selection allows you to use several of the most common HTML tags within your blog for emphasis, hyperlinks, or even to separate quoted text from your own text.

There are two ways to delete your account.

The first way you can do yourself:

• Go to your account page.
• Click on the edit tab and scroll down to Delete My Account.

The second way you need an administrator to do for you:

• Email info[at]progressiveu.org with your ProgressiveU.org username. Please also include the email address with which the account was registered.
• An administrator will contact you via email to ensure that you wish the account to be deleted.
  

If you would like to change your username, please follow the steps below:

• Go to "My Account"
• Click the "Edit" tab
• Change your username in the "Username" field to the desired name.
• Submit the changes.

Please be advised that the new username will not take affect if that username has already been taken by another user.

• To ensure that the username has been changed, click on the "Edit" tab again.
