How do I find my team's site? |
|
At the HomeDugout homepage, simply type in the name of the site that
the team's coach has given you. Alternatively, the person (coach)
who set up the site can send you a direct link to the site. Once
you have brought the site up, you can make it a favorite or a bookmark
so that you can go directly to the site in the future. |

How do I create a new team site? |
|
Click on the link that says "Create Your Own Free Team Site".
On this page you simply enter the desired name for the site (we suggest
a town or league name followed by an underscore_ followed by the team name
(i.e. Dodgers). then hit the "Create Your Team Site" button.
The site will be created and you will instantly be taken to the site's
homepage. |

How do I edit the team site I
created? |
|
The initial password for a new site is the word "password". Go
to the bottom - right of the page where it says "Edit this Page".
Enter the word "password" (it should already be there), and hit the "Edit
Now" button. You will then be taken to a page where all of the sections
of the site are individually editable. Edit the various fields as
desired - experiment to get the desired results. To submit the changes,
go to the bottom - right of the page and you will see a password field.
This field will always display your current password. If you want
to keep the same password, simply hit the "Submit" button and all of your
changes will take effect. If you want to change your password, then
type your new password into this field before hitting the "Submit" button.
All of your changes will take effect plus your password will be changed
to the new value. We highly recommend initially changing the password
away from the word "password".
If you run out of blank fields to fill in for a given category, simply
submit what you have so far, and hit "Edit Now" again. You will have
additional blank fields to use. Fill in, submit, and edit again to
get more.
If you need to insert lines between existing lines, check the box "insert
lines" near the "Edit Now" button before hitting this button. You
will have a new blank line between each of the previously existing lines.
If you need to insert multiple lines, submit, and edit again to get more. |

What if I forget my password? |
|
If you are trying to edit your page, and you cannot remember the correct
password to enter, go ahead and enter a wrong password. You will
then be directed to an error page that will provide a link that you can
click on to receive the password through email. The password can
only be sent to the email of record for the site. This is the first
email that is entered in the "contacts" section of your site. If
you ever want to be able to have your password sent to you, be sure to
enter your real email address into this section of your site. |

Can I post pictures on my site? |
|
No, but you can set up a free picture site with any of a large number
of websites (i.e. Flickr, Snapfish) and then create a link to that picture
site in the "Links" section of your team page. |
