BBS
Help on ELEWEB
From the initial screen click on Login to Hagar's Helpline !.
This should Show a intermediate page with scrolling info,
pictures of old ANSI BBS, some menu options and external web jumps, These
should be available without login
From this screen either ‘log in’ ( top Right ),Or
register a ‘new user’ name / password. (Full Name, min3 char/numbers Password )
This should put you into the base / home screen, ( note
if screen errors use Browser back and then ‘Home’. )
Main menu selections on left,
main centre is Forum # 1 dialog (main news / notes ), right is general info,
Avatar picture, and extra external web jumps. ( also at base )
See your Details using ‘show Profile’
Should be able to enter
extra details in ‘edit profile’ and put a picture against your log in
Using the ‘edit Avatar’.
‘Messages’
- Leave / read messages, (
Can also Edit / Delete messages you have written, as long as this is allowed in
that area. ) (add new messages answers to a chain, ), Puts you first into ‘Group’ Select, Then ‘Area’ Select.
‘Forum’
allows you to browse through the three areas set up.
( Area one is the main
opening screen message area, (may not be accessible to all users, under ‘Forums’),
the other 2 are for your comments or discussions, )
( the
difference between these and old style message areas, is the method of listing
and display, if a ‘Avatar’ picture has been set, this will be displayed against
any of your messages )
Also Has
easy links to Reply and Edit your messages.
( ‘Forum’ are indexed
differently from ELEBBS hence it is best not to Edit / Delete Web / Forum
messages in standard ELEBBS )
pillage files, ( download
)( upload seems to have a problem on the Web, use the Telnet
connection into the old
text version . Or FTP.)
Files are set into interest
areas, or old CD / DVD contents. ( note all files now on file server so
available all time. )
Some areas are limited on
age or user status.
If you have any problems downloading
/ viewing files check your browser settings for application set for each file
type !.
If there are any files you
expect to find, but can not, then post me a message in old SYSOP area, and I
will see if I have it in my archives.
If screen seems to lock or
result is strange, use browser back button to get to ‘home’
And leave a message
describing the error.
