Using the web site

How do I add a whole heap of pictures of a Beth Shalom event to a posting?

Simply attach the photos to an email..The webmaster will then set up a posting, as appropriate, for all to see.NOTES: * There is generally a maximum of 10MB that you can attach to an email - if this is insufficient, please send a few emails! * It would be better if you are able to reduce the resolution of the photos, but not essential for Picasa or Beth Shalom.

What is a blog, and how do I??

Here's what and how!

How do I add my photo in a new posting (or blog) that I am writing?

Go to Gravatar, register your email address by following the instructions, and upload a photo to that login. This is entirely free. Your photo will then appear automatically on the Beth Shalom site!

After registering on the site, I still can't see and do everything on the site.

Most probably, you are not logged on.Look at the bottom right of the screen - can you see "login in"? If so, please simply log in. If not, please contact the webmaster.Click 'remember password' when you first log in so that won't have to log in each time.

I need to log in each time I use the web site - how do I avoid this?

When you log in, click 'remember me' and your system will log you in automatically.

Email links

My email program blocks images, and requests permission to download the images.

Allow bethshalom.org.nz to always download images.

The weekly Luach email say "Your email program does not support on-line viewing" - what do I do?

The settings of your email program (eg Outlook, Thunderbird etc) is either very old or prevents HTML emails. You can either change your settings, update the program, or copy "http://www.bethshalom.org.nz/news/" into your internet browser (eg Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari or Firefox).

Nothing appears in the weekly Luach email

You probably have a slow internet connection: please be patient and it will appear.
