            <description><![CDATA[<p>This site has two ways of recognizing members, with email/name insecure authentication and stronger email/password authentication.</p>
<p>Any time you make a new post or click on the &quot;manage my subscriptions&quot; from an email, you are logged into this website insecurely, by using your email and full name only.</p>
<p>This easy and insecure way of logging in is available to let users post easily, without setting a password and also to allow a user to easily manage subscriptions from email newsletters without requiring a complicated password setup process.</p>
<p>Email/name combinations for many people are easy to guess, however, such as John Doe and john.doe@xyzcompany.com.</p>
<p>We therefore  restrict what can be done with this insecure authentication.</p>
<p>To <a href="/11706/How_do_I_login_securely_using_a_password">login securely</a> you will need to relogin using a secret password in addition to your email address.  This password can only be discovered by using the main email address we have on file with your user account.</p>
<p>Instructions login securely and to set or reset your password can be found <a href="/11706/How_do_I_login_securely_using_a_password">here.</a></p>
<p> </p>
<ol><li>logout by pressing logout in the top left of the screen next to your name (or press login securely once this is implemented)</li>
    <li>Press login in the top left once the page reloads</li>
    <li>in the dialog that pops up enter you user name and password*</li>
    <li>you will now be logged in securely and can change view and change all your personal profile information including <a href="/11705">change your email address</a> for newsletters and for your login ID </li>
</ol><p> </p>
<p> *If you have not set a password, or need a new password, instructions to set or reset your password in are as follows:</p>
<ol><li>Press login in the top left of the page</li>
    <li>in the dialog that pops up press &quot;need password?&quot;</li></ol>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>Unique Opened and Open Rate under represent the number of unique recipients because they count only successful pings to our servers.  Blackberries, Text only Readers and all mail readers where the user does not select download pictures are not counted.<br /><br />
Total opened includes every time the email is opened and read.  Our experience is the actual  number of  readers is somewhere between Unique and Total and the actual open rate is at least 50% higher than the reported Open Rate. </p>]]></description>

- On a PC hold down the Cntrl key while you click on each post
You'll now have a bunch of browser windows with each of the spams open.
</p><p>3. Now you select delete for each post
To quickly get to the next browser window to make this process quick, 
- On a Mac, Cntrl  and the Page Down key get you to the next browser page
- On a PC, the Cntrl and Tab buttons take you the next browser page
</p><p>Quickly go through each page and click delete

</p><p>In order to make links to pages within the site in the menu bar, it is very easy.
1. Find the page id for the page you want to link to (every page has a number and a name).
2. Type /number and then next to it the name of the page as you want in to appear in the menu, for example:
/5869 Welcome
</p><p>In order to make links to pages within the site from a wiki page, you just need to use a little simple html code as follows:

            <description><![CDATA[ * You can choose multiple sections for each post so that your post can be accessed from different parts of the site.  
 * Simply hold down the shift key to select multiple sections.
 * You do not have to enter the post multiple times!  
 * For example, if you have a new album about to be released, you can enter the information about the album and perhaps the release date and select:
announcements, yalies on the air, and arts.  Your post can then be referenced from different channels within the site. ]]></description>

</p><p>Just follow these steps:
</p>
<ul><li> set up a section (soon to be tags) 
</li></ul><ul><li> add a section list (listofposts) called Section Name (more...) with only 2, 3 or 4 items listed and affiliate it with the Section you just created
</li></ul><ul><li> add a custom link to the listofposts to Section Name using the correct format with a leading /
