How to use RootsChat: Where are the Help Pages ?
« on: Sunday 14 December 08 13:10 UTC (UK) »
We have now re-written the Help pages for RootsChat  Smiley

                         

We hope you will find answers to all your questions there,
but if not, then check out this board,

.... and if you still can't find an answer, then post a topic about your question here.

Enjoy  Smiley

ps.  the new pages cannot be accessed directly from some topic pages (i.e. from within some topics),
or from some of the board pages  Sad

But they can always be accessed from the index page.

Think it's working now, Bob.

First time I got a Pge not Found now I get a nicely laid out page of guidance and links to various topics  Smiley

Thanks to you and the others who have worked to get it up and running!

The new help pages look really good Bob!  Smiley

I just had a quick look - it's all nice and neat and tidy, and ... I even learnt something new.  Wink

Congratulations to Bob, who has done the majority of the work on this long project - and to all those who have contributed suggestions.

At last, helpful help pages for our helpful Rootschatters!

Bob

You and the other Mods are brilliant.  You've given up your spare time and produced a brilliant resource.

Thank you  Cheesy

Yes all credit where due.  I have noticed in the last couple of weeks since Bob has been playing that the boards are not only easier to find but becoming very logical.

Great stuff and much appreciated  Kiss
