Accessing the Main Discussion Forum Interface
You can access the discussion forum interface by going to the server's main discussion forum URL. For example:
http://listmanager.example.com/read/
Please remember to include the final slash after read. This URL will take you to the All Forums section for the server's first site.
To see forums available in other sites
1. Access a particular forum in that site.
2. In the left navigation bar, and click All Forums.
Accessing the Discussion Forum Interface for a Particular Forum
You can access a particular forum by specifying it at the end of the URL with ?forum=listname. For example:
http://listmanager.example.com/read/?forum=listname
Accessing the Discussion Forum Interface for a Different Site
Depending on the server settings in Utilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Advanced: Enable Features, the main discussion forum interface URL either brings you to all lists for the site you are logged into, or to all lists available on the server.
Logging Into the Discussion Forum Interface
Many forums will require that you log in to view messages. Others will require that you log in to post a message to the forum. If this is the case, you will be prompted to provide your email address and password.
Note that if you are a member of several forums on the server with different email addresses or passwords, the lists you have access to will depend on the email address/password combination you provide. If you do not have a password for some lists, but you have one for others, you will need to provide your password to access any of your lists, even those for which you do not have a password. If you try to log into a forum that you are not a member of, you will not be able to get in, and you'll be asked to log in again.
Site and server administrators have access to see and read all messages in the discussion forum interface. However, to post messages, they must first join the list as a member.
If you forget your password, and enter an incorrect one, you will be warned that an incorrect password has been entered for that email address. You can then click email password and you will immediately be sent an email informing you of which lists you are subscribed to, and the password for each list. You can then log in with the correct password.
NOTE Lists are organized by site only, not by topics.
