Subscribe/Registration

Registration (Required to post comments.)

Registration is required only if you want to post comments. To register, simply click on “Click Here To Register For This Site” located in the right sidebar.  The initial registration box requires you to enter a user name and your email address. The user name cannot be changed. Also if you want automatic updates, be sure to check the box shown at bottom of the sign-up box. You’ll be emailed a password. (Be sure to check your Junk/Spam folder as well for this email.) After you sign in you’ll go directly to your profile page. Here you can enter more information about yourself and will have other options available to you including changing your password.

**********************************

Now for those who don’t want to register or don’t intend to post comments, you can still receive automatic updates by subscribing with your email address or using the RSS feed. The instructions follow.

Non-Registered Users: Receive updates automatically via Email Subscription Service.

There are two locations available for you to sign-up for an email subscription. The easiest is on the right sidebar near the top. The title is “Subscribe &   Be Notified!”  All you have to do is enter your email address and click on the “Subscribe” button. As a security measure, this process is double opt-in. You’ll receive an email requiring you to click on the provided link in order to complete the subscription process. (Be sure to check your Junk/Spam folder as well for this email.) You can unsubscribe at any time. You can also subscribe at the bottom of this page.

Non-Registered Users: Receive updates automatically via RSS feed.

In the upper right-hand corner of this web page are two symbols and words. They are “Posts” and “Comments.”

If you only want to receive our new posts, then click only on “Posts.” After you click on “Posts,” you’ll be transferred to a new window. Depending on which web browser you are using, you will be allowed to subscribe to our travelogue RSS feed.

The Mozilla Firefox browser in my opinion is the best and Amy and I use it all the time. Firefox also gives you several options as to where you want the RSS feed to be sent to. You can have the RSS feed sent to Live Bookmarks within the Firefox browser or to Microsoft Outlook or to Google and others. It’s your choice.

Internet Explorer (IE) sends the RSS feed only within its Favorites Feed folder. If the RSS feed can be sent any other way in IE, I don’t know about it; I rarely use IE anymore.

If you want to receive the comment updates too, click on “Comments” and complete the same process.

For those of you with RSS feed experience, then you know what you’re doing and I’m sure you already have your system.

If you have difficulty with any of these instructions, please let me know. I want to make this as simple as possible yet keep the SPAM problem under control.

If all else fails, just send me an email with the email address you want to subscribe with and I’ll subscribe you.
