Guest Change

[Pat Kelly]

I spent a little time yesterday and figured out how to change something.
For the last year or so the forum only showed 6 things for guests to read. They could not see any other posts, or any of the headers. The forum looked very small. The BOD decided that maybe more people would join if they saw that it was actually bigger.
Now everyone can see all the headers for the different areas but they still can not read or post. They all say locked. At least now it looks bigger and maybe we will get more requests for access and in turn more members for the club. In other words they now see 22 headers instead of the 6.

For what it is worth:

I agree; Cyphos.com lets guests view all posts and responses etc. ; but must register to post - a step beyond what has been proposed here but small steps are careful ones - like you must take in my house!!

May have helped a little,
Couple of new people.

Seems like Spring has slowed down the actual fish talk a little.
Normal ups and downs to any forum.

Need more fish discussions.
Breeding and such.

I recently added special sections for our sponsors in the trader.
I did make them so that visitors can see those posts. More exposure for the people who support us that way. They can only view.

Pat,
This is a very GOOD idea. It gives visitors a much better view of what CCA is all about. Actually, if a person has never heard of a 'fish club' they might need some kind of boost in the right direction. It may draw in new members and new sponsors!

I, for one, had no idea what I was getting in to when I went to my first CCA meeting. Look at how much FUN we are having now! Meetings, breeding cichlids and catfish, mini auctions, speakers, fish swaps, fish show, online forum, side trips, Bque, holiday party, and conventions!

Later,
Marge
