Top GearWHAT CAN REGISTERED USER DO?
There are many advantages to being a registered member of a site. The main advantage is that you can build a reputation for yourself as a contributor to a particular site by having your username attached to your thread and content additions. Depending on the permissions scheme set by the site creator during the setup process, you may be given expanded options for contribution. You may be able to add new pages, add keyword tags, or edit existing pages. All users are able to post a thread and rate others’ threads or posts.

What is Messaging?

Onsite messaging service: Wetpaint wikis further foster communication and collaboration among members and site administrators through a messaging system that enables the composition, delivery, and management of person-to-person and person-to-group onsite text-based messages.

Through their personal site messages inbox, registered users can:

  • Read and move messages to the trash
  • Compose and send messages to up to 15 other members of the site at a time
  • Block individual members from whom they do not wish to receive messages

How do I send a private message to another site user or moderator?

Registered users can send a private message to up to 15 other users and/or moderators in several ways:
  1. Go to your messages area (on your Profile), click the "Compose" button, and type the recipient's username in the To: field.
  2. Go to any user's profile page and click the "Send Message" button. You can always add more recipients in the To: field by typing in those usernames.
  3. Click on a username anywhere you see it on the site. When the tooltip comes up, click the "Send Message" link. You can always add more recipients in the To: field by typing in those usernames.

Note: You can also send a message to all of the moderators at one time. In the To: field, type the word "All" and you will see the username "All Moderators." Whenever you send a message to all moderators it includes the site creator and any administrators on the site. You cannot, however, send a message to All Registered Users on the site. This can only be done by Moderators and above.
