Forum Guidelines
List Serve Delivery Setting Options
The following are setting options for the CLC Forum or subgroups:
- Normal: receive individual postings as they are posted
- Index: receive only subject headers in one email per day for previous day's posting and access the Forum via the Forum Web site (go to regular Web site, Membership, Members Only, CLC Forum, enter email address, Messages or Search)
- Digest: receive all postings in one email per day for previous day's postings
- Mime Digest: same as Digest but in Mime format (Mime is an Internet language that is read more easily by some)
You can change these settings yourself via the CLC Forum Web interface, or CLC staff can assist you. Control your list serve settings by going to the CLC Forum, entering your email address, then go to clcforum, My Account, Membership Type, and change the setting.
Changing An Email Address
Please note that the CLC Web site is a separate and distinct system from the CLC Forum. If you have changed your email address in the CLC Forum, it will not automatically update your online CLC user profile and vice versa. To update your email address with CLC, please log in to your User Profile. To update your email address in the CLC Forum, please take the following steps:
- Log in to the CLC Forum
- Select the appropriate forum from the list of "My Forums" (e.g. clcforum, academics, directors, etc.)
- Select “My Account” from the menu on the left side of the screen
- Update your email address
- Select “Save Changes”
Out of the Office Setting
Any time you need to temporarily stop receiving the CLC Forum, you can control when you receive messages. Go to the CLC Forum, enter your email address, then go to clcforum, My Account, Membership Type, and change the setting to "No Mail."
After you have done this, you can set your email software's auto responder vacation message. This way, your auto responder will not reply to the whole Forum while you are away.
When you return, switch back to your current setting for the CLC Forum.
If you need any assistance with CLC Forum settings, please email membership@childlife.org.
