Membership Questions
Q: Do I have to be a member to be listed in the Services Directory?
A: Yes. Only members can be listed.
Website Questions
Q: Why can't I log in to the forums? It keeps telling me that my username and password are invalid.
A: The membrship area and the forums are run off separate databases because the membership of each will be different. Some members may not want to joint the forums and some people who aren't members may want to participate in our discussions. So to log in to the forums. you must register specifically for the forums. There is no reason you cannot use the same username and password for both sections of the site.
Q: Is my membership information public?
A: No. You membership information is not available to the general public but is available only to people authorized by the president to edit web content and membership information. However. your services directory information is visible to anyone who visits the site and anything you put into your forums profile is visible to other members of the forums.
Speaker Suggestions
Q: How should I address my content?
A: Provide straight forward information about your product or service with both the beginner and the power user in mind. Also include information for the beginner and for the power user. That way everyone leaves satisfied. And above all. share your information without a direct sales pitch. Educational information is very appreciated.
Q: Do I need to bring presentation equipment?
A: CDPUG can arrange for presentation equipment ahead of time if requested. We do prefer though that speakers bring their own equipment since it helps to eliminate any possible presentation SNAFUs.
Q: How long can should my presentation last?
A: An hour is a fair amount to cover a subject and keep the attention of the audience. Q&A can follow for five or ten minutes. And there is always the meeting after the meeting at a local restaurant.
Q: Can I bring something to raffle?
A: Raffle items are greatly appreciated! We appreciate them as fund raising tools for the group.
