• How do you save pricing changes?

  2007 Jun 27

  A question came up on the forums about saving changes to the price of your project. To modify your price, click "Revise" next to your project. On the project page, scroll down to the pricing info and click pencil icon. Make your price changes, and then click the blue SAVE button in the bottom right of the form.

  Is this thing on?
  

• The message box

  2005 Aug 23

  Update: This is now available through the Lulu help system
  
  One of the newer features in our community is the message box, which allows users to send messages to each other within the Lulu community. Sadly, this feature is currently lacking in help. As we work on getting help created for the message box, I thought I would post some tips on how to use the message box!
  
  

  Message Box Help

  
  

  Message Box

  • To see your messages, click on the "Community" tab, and then on "Message Box" in the left navigation bar.
  • To read a message, click on the subject of the message you want to read.
  • To delete a message, check the box next to the message and then click the "DELETE" button
  • To compose a message, click the "Compose Message" link

  
  

  Reading a Message

  • To read a message, click on the subject of the message you want to read in the Message Box.
  • To reply to a message, click on the "REPLY" button.
  • To reply to all message recipients, click the "REPLY ALL" button.
  • To delete a message, click the "DELETE" button

  
  

  Composing a Message

  • To write a message:
    • Put the user's (you can add multiple users — just separate their names with commas) storefront name or account ID into the To field.
    • If you want to send copy or a blind copy, then add those users to the CC (for copy) and BCC (for blind copy) fields.
    • Fill in the subject of the message.
    • Write the body of your message. You can use the buttons above the body of the message to add formatting.
    • Click the "SEND MESSAGE" button.
  • To cancel a message, click the "CANCEL" button

  
  

  Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I address my messages?
    • You can send a message to a user's storefront name or their account number.
  • Why can't I send a message using someone's display name (the name you see in their forum posts)?
    • The problem is that these names are not neccesarily unique — we have no way of knowing which "John Doe" you want to send a message to. Of course, if a user's display name is the same as their storefront name then it will work.
  • How do I create a storefront name?
    • Go to the storefront editor

  Apparently the recent posts module doesn't like attachments very much.
