Discussion of the web-site related issues

This subject was discussed here http://www.milestudents.com/forum/discussion_of_mile_rlelated_issues/sav..., but since someone might be looking for it in "how to" section, I am once again posting the instructions on how to redirect your wti e-mail to your usual personal box.

1) Go to http://member.inethosting.ch/emailkonf/emailkonf.php and login using your WTI e-mail and password;
2) Procede to configuration page and click on "Forwarding" link;

If you have forgotten your password and can not log in to the website, then please:

- press the link "Request new password" in the lower part of User Login block, or just follow this link: http://milestudents.com/user/password ;

- put your username OR registered e-mail address. Very often users try to put both of them, please pay special attention that you need to put only what you remember for sure. To know exact spelling of your user name go to: http://milestudents.com/users and find your account.

- after pressing the "E-mail new password" button, look in your e-mail account for the instructions.

Dear sMILEies,

Jenny asked me to make it possible to upload audio-files, so I have today activated division on our website - Audio. Now, every MILE students can upload some music onto the website, but since audio files are usually of big sizes and due to limits on the web-server, please upload only relevant audio files, for instance, what represent your own countries.

Another request - if possible try to stick with MP3 format, since internal program of the web-site plays them without opening additional players, which is very comfortable.

Enjoy!

Supporting the suggestion of Leila, that was also cheered by Natasha, I would like to introduce new type of content 'calendar event' that is possible to post on our website since of today. It makes possible to enter any important dates in the future to the calendar of the events, which is displayed on the bottom left side of the page.

To add an event to the website, just put the pointer of your mouse over 'create content' and select 'event' link in the pop up submenu on the right, fill all the required field

I have several times heard requests to make it possible to massively upload pictures to the website, since one by one upload takes too long time. From today on we have such a possibility activated on Milestudents.com.

In order to upload several pictures, or the whole folder, with one single command you have to follow the following steps:

In order to edit your personal data, you can click on "my account" link in the navigation menu and select necessary subview tabs like "account settings", "personal information" or "my newsletters". I also would like to post here couple of links that to provide shortcuts to managing your profile:

Your Account Settings: http://milestudents.com/user/me/edit
Your Personal Information: http://milestudents.com/user/me/edit/Personal+Information

Some might think why indeed some words in the tag-clouds are bigger than other words (Look top right corner). So I would like to explain that the size of the words change automatically and depends on how many entries each of them contain. For example, you can see that by the time of submission of this post a tag-word 'mile' is bigger in size than, let's say, a word 'trips'. Because, more entries were submitted to the website under the tag-word 'mile' that 'trips'. So, the more you submit stories and entries under the some specific tag-word, the bigger it gets in size.

Dear All,

I would like to discuss on how to correctly post the blog entries on the website. Please, do not check MILE7 group in audience section of the submission page if there is no anything specific to concern of our group or our study in the message, if nothing to hide from public.

So, the most of entries should be public. But ONLY WHEN WE NEED TO DISCUSS SOME SPECIFIC MATTERS WITHIN OUR GROUP we should check in against audience of MILE7 when posting.

I hope that was not so confusing.

Today, I would like to introduce automatically updated every hour news on WTO from different world mass media. To check on WTO news click on "wti news" link in the upper menu of the site.

Dear Users,

Today, I have replaced the web-site's interface to new one. I hope you will like it.

However, if you have got used to the old one, you can easily switch to it. In order to activate the old theme, please go to your account page, click on "edit" tab, go down till "Theme configuration" and select theme "blue" and press Submit button.
