Introduction to the "webboard" notice board system
The Guidenet webboard is divided into conferences. These conferences cover a particular subject or theme. Each conference contains topics, that is an original message and the replies to it. A message has a title (the topic), the message itself and may also have a number of attachments. These attachments are files such as word documents, pictures, spreadsheets or even software.
Each user can reply to a topic, add a new topic, attach files, download files. Each user can also delete and edit their own messages but they cannot alter or delete other users messages.
Each user registered on the notice board has a profile. This includes their email address, username and password. Users can edit their email addresses but MUST NOT change their username and password as this can lock them out of the system. The username and password is needed to get into the notice board. For Guidenet these are your normal Guidenet username and password.
The notice board automatically sends each user an email notification when a new message has been posted. This means that you don't have to check the board each day to keep up to date.
