If you want to edit your account details at any stage just click on your name, which will appear at the top of the navigation bar once you are logged in. When you modify your account you will see two extra settings:
Always load html editor when available - if set to Yes then the EasyEdit html editor will load by default for any text input boxes. If set to No then you will just see plain text input boxes, but with an 'EasyEdit' button to load the editor manually if you wish. You need to have a compatible browser in order for the editor to work.
Flag displayed posts as read - if set to Yes then all Forum postings will be flagged as read automatically once they have been displayed on your screen. If you set to No then you will need to manually flag the posts as Read.
