SMART WAYS TO USE YOUR ONLINE OFFICE

Remember my login name and password

I selected the "Remember my login name and password" option, but it doesn't seem to be working.

If you have the "Remember" option selected, do not click "Log Out" to close your Head Office session – clicking "Log Out" de-activates your "Remember" setting. Instead, just close your web browser or surf to another website.

I did not select the option to "Remember my login name and password" and yet sometimes my browser "remembers" this information anyway when I type in my Head Office URL.

This is most likely happening because you didn't log out from your workspace before visiting other web sites. Your browser recognises that you haven't logged out and automatically opens your Head Office home page without prompting you for login name and password information. This does not mean that people on other computers can type in your site URL and automatically enter your Head Office workspace.

How do I set up a private discussion forum?

By default, online discussions are open to all members of your Head Office workspace. However, you can set up permissions on the forum so that only the members of your choice can see and contribute to it. When you're creating the forum, click the Permissions tab. Give the few members you want to be included in the discussion Read & Add access and set the default access to No Access.
