Membership

If you have purchased the Standard or Advanced packages, you have a choice of how members login to your unit website at Admin/Control Panel/Membership. Otherwise you only have access to the accounts as described in the "Standard Accounts" section.

You have already read about the default membership – Simple Membership – that provides three standard accounts for you to use. This is the default membership method.

The second option is Individual Accounts. This option provides you with the ability to create a separate account for each scout, and even parent if you wish. You can then designate which of these accounts have additional privileges for adding content or site administration. You can access the Membership options through the Administrator menu.

Within this option, there are two methods for creating accounts.

Manual – In this method all accounts are created manually by you through the Administrator account by accessing the Add and Modify menu items under the Membership section of the Administration menu.

Join – In this method the Login section changes to “Login/Register” and an option for “Create a new account” within the Login section. New users can click this link and fill out a registration form with their username, password selection, email address. You will then receive an email notifying you of the request for a new account. The email will contain instruction on how to activate the user. You can still manually add accounts with this method.

Note: You should not use the Join method if you are planning on importing members, roster, or synchronizing with PackMaster or TroopMaster.

Until you activate the new user, their account will not have any privileges to access your unit’s website or its content.
