The Preferences tab

You can set the following information in the preferences tab:

Web Log Title:
Your Web Log title is the main title which appears at the top of every page in your Blog.

Subtitle:
The subtitle is an additional comment you can place immediately below the title of your Blog. The subtitle also appears on every page. If you do not want a subtitle, leave this field blank.

Admin email:
This is the contact email address for your Blog. Users who request an account, or wish to contact you for other reasons concerning your Blog will use this email address.

Posts per page:
You can set the maximum number of posts which can appear on each page. This value can rage between 1 and 25.

Time Zone:
Set your local time zone in this field. The times at which Posts are made will be recorded in the time zone you specify.

Announcements:
If you have any general announcements you would like to make to anyone visiting your Blog, enter them here. If you have no announcements to make, leave this section blank.

Categories:
You can set up multiple posting categories; By default, a "General" category will always be available. Enter in a list of categories you want to have, separated by commas (do not include spaces after each comma). If you only want to use the General category, leave this section blank.

Censored words:
If there are certain words (like swear words) which you do not want to allow in your Blog entries, enter them in here. Separate each word with a comma (do not use spaces). The censoring function is case-insensitive.

The Appearance tab

This section allows you to customize the color scheme, font style and font sizes which are used in your Blog. A high level of color customization is available.

You can also upload an image which will appear to the right of your Blog title and subtitle. If you want to delete an image you have already uploaded, simply put a checkmark beside "delete current image" and click on "Apply".

The Users tab

This section is used to set up additional users who will have posting rights on your domain.

To create a new user, click on "New", and enter in the user's username, password, and contact email address. Click "Save" to save the user.
