The Published Authors Forum has 155 members who have made 4,532 posts since the forum was set up on January 11th 2008.
 
An event on MySpace to advertise the forum has led to an interesting development. An email message was received from remotegoat.co.uk , the definitive guide to UK events listing:

I notice that you are currently raising awareness of published authors forum and wondered if you would be interested in additionally listing details of this event on remotegoat.co.uk.

remotegoat.co.uk is a free online directory of UK events, now listing over 6,000 events from across the UK and used by over 10,000 people.

How to use the Forum

The forum has many features to help members make the most of their visits.


How to change your settings

All your settings (if you are registered) are stored in the database. To alter them click the Profile link (shown at the top of pages on the navigation bar). This will allow you to change all your settings.

 


How to show an image below your username

There may be two images below a username when viewing posts. The first is an image associated with your rank;

generally these take the form of stars or blocks indicating how many posts you have made or your status on the forums. Below this may be a larger image known as an avatar; this is generally unique or personal to each user. To upload an image, click the Profile link.


How to add a signature to your post
To add a signature to a post you must first create one; this is done via your profile. Once created you can check the Add Signature box on the posting form to add your signature. You can also add a signature by default to all your posts by checking the appropriate radio box in your profile. You can still prevent a signature being added to individual posts by un-checking the add signature box on the posting form.
 
If you registered in the past but cannot log in anymore

The most likely reasons for this are: you entered an incorrect username or password

(check the email you were sent when you first registered) or the administrator has deleted your account for some reason. If it is the latter case then perhaps you did not post anything? It is usual for boards to periodically remove users who have not posted anything so as to reduce the size of the database. Try registering again and get involved in discussions.
