Welcome to the New ConFest Online Community Forum!

As a part of a major revamping of the web site for the online community a new online forum needed to be established using integrated software. It's a bit different from the previous forum sofware but functions in a way that is essentially the same.

We look forward to any suggestions that you may offer that would help provide a better online community especially regarding online participation and how that extends to the ConFests on the ground.

Hint: use the  icon to the right to expand or collapse the category to view it's forums.

Problems experienced ~ general info.

Problems experienced ~ general info.

It appears the main reason for site problems experienced [of which there are surprisingly quite a few] are mainly due to the need to alter the hosting servers settings to accommodate the Joomla platform properly.
These teething problems are to be expected I guess but at this stage no installation of modifcations to the sites software is practical nor likely possible. [ The site was migrated fully functional from another mroe compatable server environment after innitial development]

It is hoped over the next few weeks this issue will be resolved.

Re: Problems experienced ~ general info.

I couldn't find the way to change my password.    Where is the "change password" button?  by the way I did RX you email out good, that does assure that a password can be changed.   (I am changing banks, partly because my old bank refuses to let me choose a pin number!)    It is great to be able to help trouble-shoot, you don't get to do that this much these days.

if you go to the members area from the main navigation menu an dclick on your "profile" link it will take you to your site profile. when there you will find a Edit link at the top of the profile. Select "Update your profile" option from the drop down menu. HAve a look at the tabs and select the one that allows tyou to change your "Contact Info" details.
Best of luck!

all site upload functions are curently no go. I believe this is due to problems with the current hosting server as the site works well on the original development server.
The Hosting server problems are effectng heaps of areas of the sites management and function.
As this is an area outside my control I have no ability to rectify it.
I can't even delete/change my own avatar via the site.  [ it was uploaded when the site was on my dev. server.]
We are waiting on the volunteer hosters participation to get it sorted out.
I am tempted to suggest we put the forum off line until it is sorted out to avoid severe member confusion
