If you are not logged in or have never registered, there are two forms on this page, each with their own submit button. 1. If you have previously registered and forgotten your password (but remember your email address), you can obtain your registration information by entering your email address and clicking the '''Mail me my account data''' button. The email message will include a URL you may use to log in. 1. If you have previously registered and have moved to a different PC or intentionally logged out (and erased your cookie) you can log back in by entering your ID and password (once) and clicking the '''Login''' button at the bottom of the form. 1. If you wish to register, then you should have already read the HelpOnUserPreferences page. Complete the first four fields (Name, Password, Password repeat, Email) below the '''Mail me my account data''' button. Use a WikiName for your name (real or an alias). Click the '''Create Profile''' button at the bottom of the page. Once you have registered and logged in, '''User``Preferences''' in the upper right corner of each page will be replaced by your WikiName. Clicking your WikiName will redisplay this page so you can change your wiki user preferences. There will be a '''Logout''' button at the bottom of the page, clicking the button will clear the cookie from your PC and log you out (normally you would never do this unless you are using a PC shared with others). If you edit a page and sign your comment with your WikiName, a '''?''' will appear in front of your WikiName after you save the page. Optionally, you can click on the '''?''', select '''Homepage Template''' and create a homepage for yourself with an email address (optional) and any other life experiences you wish to share. If you prefer to not create a homepage, just separate your WikiName with spaces like '''Wiki Name''' when signing a comment. [[UserPreferences]] |

User Preferences
You may use the form on the bottom of this page to update your personal preferences. The definitions of the various fields on the form follow.
Name: This is the name created for you by the DigitalRockArt administrator. It cannot be changed.
Email: Your email address may only be changed in the DigitalRockArt Change Email Address function. This address is used if you subscribe to a wiki page and someone (other than you) updates the page.
Editor size:
This controls the size of the text area when you edit a page. Adjust this to suit the size of your monitor and your personal preferences.
Preferred theme: choose a theme to change colours, icons and layout of the wiki
Time zone: ...
Your time is: If the correct time is not displayed, use the drop down box and select the correct time.
Server time is: Displays the server time.
Date format: The default of year-month-day is least confusing for international use.
Preferred language: The default is taken from your browser setting. It is advisable to set this to a specific language anyway, since then you get notification mails in your native tongue, too.
General options: ...
Add spaces to displayed wiki names: If checked, makes WikiNames look like Wiki Names. DEPRECATED.
After login jump to last visited page: If checked, jumps to the last page in your trail after login.
Open editor on double click: Handy if you edit a lot of pages.
Publish my email (not my wiki homepage) in author info: in case you have no wiki home page.
Show comment sections: When checked: show comments (and toggle to comments off), otherwise do not show comments (and toggle to comments on).
Show fancy diffs: Makes diffs more readable.
Show page trail: Lists the last five pages visited at the top of the page, so you can jump back several pages easily.
Show question mark for non-existing pagelinks: Display a highlighted ? in front of a non-existent page instead of a color-coded page name.
Show top/bottom links in headings: If checked, every title bar will have an up and down arrow to navigate to top or bottom of page.
Quick links: Adds additional choices to the navigation section. Enter one Wiki page name per line. You may also add free-form links, i.e. entries of the form [url linktext] just like in wiki pages.
