: Setting up a moderator account
Please follow the directions below to setup a moderator account for your message board:
- Visit your message board.
- Click the Register link and create an account. (If there is no "Register" link, read the note at the end of this article.)
- Login to your Website Toolbox account.
- Click the Manage Moderators link.
- Click the New Moderator link.
- Fill out the form, for the "Username" field enter the name of the account you created in step 2.
- The account you created in step 2 has now been assigned as a moderator account. You can login to your message board with that account to perform a variety of administrative tasks.
Please note that your message board moderator account and your Website Toolbox account are completely separate and should not be confused for one account. Your Website Toolbox account is used to manage the settings of your message board, while your message board moderator account is used to manage the content.
Note: You must have member registration activated in the "General Settings" section of the Website Toolbox members area in order to have moderators in your message board. If you do not have member registration activated, you can use the Secondary Password feature instead of using moderators. You can find more information about the Secondary Password feature by logging into your Website Toolbox account and clicking the "Post Management" link.
