Login to your writer account. In the blog editor window, in the left column, click on Dashboard. Click on User Preferences.

Notice the little question marks next to each item. You can click on a question mark to get more information.

Display name

To display the name of your group with your entries, type that into the Display name field. Whatever is in the Display name field appears below any entry you create, as a signature. Please keep the display name as brief as possible. Leave out terms such as Center, or Buddhist Center. Almost all the groups on the site are Buddhist centers, so it's not necessary to say that you are one.

Email

You don't need to fill in your Email. That's only used for replies to comments. The site doesn't accept comments, they have become a conduit for spam, and take up room on the page.

URL

To make the display name into a clickable link to your group's site, type or paste the address into the URL field. If you are not sure what the address is, just open a new browser window and navigate to your group's site. Copy the address from the bar at top.

Preferred format

Choose XHTML. Then check WYSIWYG mode later on.

Default entry status

Change the Default entry status to published, then you won't have to do that each time you create an entry.

Entry edit field height

Determines the size of the text edit box. Set it to 30. If that doesn't fit well on your screen, you can change it later.

User timezone

Set the User timezone to America/LosAngeles.

Enable WYSIWYG mode

Check the box. If you have set the Preferred format to XHTML, this will give you What You See Is What You Get editing mode. So when you type in the edit box, you'll be seeing how it will look on the site. You won't see the XHTML code that the software creates for you.

If you are using Wiki format, checking this won't affect anything.

Save

Be sure to click Save before you exit.
