Registration for Discussion Forum	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote
	[Delete this Thread]

I have a Premium Account and want to use the Discussion Forum feature. For someone to post a new thread or respond to a thread in a Discussion Forum they have to be registered first.

When a guest registers they are creating an account with localendar. From the looks of it, they are given a trial account with a calendar and all the other features...

Can a guest simply register for the Discussion Forum only and not be given a trial account with all the other features?

At this time, we have only a single registration system, which manages authentication for all users. One reason for this is if a member uses multiple forums and also has a calendar, we don't want them to wonder which id/pw they should use depending on what functionality, forum, or calendar they are trying to access.

For the person who is only visiting a single forum and doesn't use any other features of the site it might seem a bit much to give them a personal calendar also, but in the broader scheme of our active members, it prevents a lot of confusion and misunderstanding

Understand. So once someone registers, they can post or reply to any forum hosted by localendar?

Yes, unless that forum/calendar owner has restricted it to a particular set of users.
