User Guide

Names

Use local names (e.g., Uniwersytet w Białymstoku) for locations rather than anglicized names (e.g., University of Bialystok), but stick to something close to the Latin alphabet (no Cyrillic or kanji).

New users

Only people with admin privileges should be able to log in, so when you create a new user, even though you've specified a password for that user, they won't be able to log in.

May contact

The "may contact" box on the Person record indicates whether we're allowed to mail people — some people don't want to be contacted.

For this reason, some listings of people don't show emails sometimes (because people didn't let us contact them).

Publishing events

Events will be published automatically (with a delay up to 1 hour) on Software-Carpentry's website when following conditions are met:

  • they have a starting date
  • they have a URL
  • they have location (country, venue, address, latitude and longitude)
