Re: Welcome everyone!

Arlo Guthrie — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 23:55:56 GMT

Well, to be honest, I haven't got that far yet! At the moment, everyone can access all areas.

Re: Welcome everyone!

Faye Sewell — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 21:55:01 GMT

What sections cant vets get into?

Typo :)

Sorry, it should say vet nurses have access to all areas, and others have limited access!

[/quote]

also how do I have just my first name on my avatar thingy bit??

[/quote]

The best way to do this is set your login name to be just your first name, and then select 'do not display real name'. However, login name must be set at first registration, so you wouldn't have known that. I believe I can change it for you, though. But login names must be unique, so it is dependent on nooone else having a login that is your first name!

email me at support@vetnurse.co.uk if you'd like me to change your login name.

Hello all! have just changed over to the new vetnurse, cant seem to get onto any of the revision guides??

[/quote]

I've answered this in the FAQs linked to from the home page too. But the answer is that the revision guides are being upgraded and are work in progress (with the exception of the Practice Survival Guide). For the moment, you'll need to access the old site.

Oh and another question will i get any of my points back for all the posts I did on the last vet nurse? I was quite proud of them I was building them up and I dont like being a newbie...

I've just added a new FAQs page linked to from the home page of the site (top right) - YES, I can upgrade you to the same 'status' as you had on the last site, but points start afresh. The FAQs explain more.

Charlotte, thats something Arlo has to do himself but i dont know, cos then everyone is gonna be asking him, but i suppose it is only fair. Although as you can see alrweady the points system is alot different to the old one.

Jenny Cook RVN — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 20:56:48 GMT

Yeh i didnt know we were going to change today, i had the new link and the old link anyways, so i clicked on the old one and it redirected me to here. You can still access the old site for now though if that helps?

Re: Welcome everyone!

Sal the 1st — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 20:54:48 GMT

is going to take a lot of getting used to! Would have been nice to have had some sort of warning it was going to change today - but hey it looks ok

Re: Welcome everyone!

[quote user="Jenny Cook"]

Also, a question for Arlo - would be still be able to have access to previous posts from the old forum(s) ? Or is there somewhere on here we can access? Its just that i was contributing to some posts on previous site last night thats all. Thanks
