The Web Site Administrator
governs the options that appear on pages in a Web Site. However,
the following options typically appear:
- Log In/ Register
(which changes to Logout after you login): Click this
button to identify yourself to the system. When you log in for
the first time, you create a profile that includes your user
information. After you create a profile, you are considered
"registered." This option changes to a Logout button.
Click Logout to log out of the system. Your profile still
remains after you log out, so you don't need to recreate it
each time you log in.
- Participate:
To join in any chat sessions, respond to message board topics,
or add content (if allowed by the Web Site Administrator), you
must click the Participate button.
- My Profile:
Click this button to show your registration information, which
you can edit. Registration information includes name, email
address, username, and password. My Profile also shows a list

sent by the system. For information about the My Profile page,
