Introduction
Welcome to the narniafans official forum! This thread is for new members who are a little confused about the board and all the things you can do here. Before you go any further, I recommend you click on this so you can follow along with what I'm talking about!
This can be really long and confusing. However, you do not need to know everything in this tutorial to post on the board. Feel free to refer back to it frequently during your stay at The Dancing Lawn.
Throughout this tutorial you will see words that are a different color. Move your curser over that text and, if the text is underlined, you can click on it and see a link that will help you understand what I am talking about. An example of this text was the this link you pressed on in the above paragraph.
If you still feel confused about anything after reading this tutorial, do not hesitate to post a question in the Suggestion Box And Questions Thread or to PM The Administrator (username: Specter) or any of the moderators (the members with "Staff member" banners).
If there is a specific topic you would like to find, press Ctrl and F at the same time and type in the topic you want to find in the white text box.
If you feel there is anything I have missed or needs more clarification, please PM your concerns to Specter or to a moderator.
So, you have come to the forum. You are scared and confused about what to do. You are about to panic, when you remember that it is all electric data that can't harm you. And no matter what you do, you will not blow up your computer. I promise. So sit back, relax, and get ready to learn how to use The NarniaFans Forum!
Logging In
When you come to the site, the first thing you should do is login. This lets everyone know you are online and looking at the posts in the forum.
Control Panel
The next thing you want to do is create a Personal Profile. A Personal Profile is a page that tells your fellow members about yourself.
The first step is to access your User CP. To do this, go to the top of any window and click User CP, on the left hand side beside FAQ.
Next, look on the left hand side. There will be many links labeled in this menu. Let's start with the first one:
Creating/Editing A Signature This is where you create and edit a signature. The first thing we need to do is click Edit Signature on the left hand side. This is where you can start typing in your signature, which will be displayed at the bottom of every post. Before you begin typing, remember that your signature can be no longer then 500 characters, so try to keep it short. Type in the signature you would like, add any smiles you want, and click Edit Signature. That's it!
Edit Email and Password: The next option in the left-hand side menu is to edit your email and password. You needed to provide an email and password when you registered, so you do not have to go into this menu. You only have to go in here when you would like to change your email or password.
