@Disco2 _ **Welcome Mary to the JDRF TypeOneNation Forum!** _ I hope that your first attempt to post will not cause you discouragement. You created your account 11 hours ago, read three topics, created a topic but I do not see your post, it does not appear to be held back for any reason. Occasionally if/when a “dangerous link” is in the message, the system will delete the post. There is a four step process to creating and posting a new topic: 1. Type a Title 2. Select a Category 3. Write your message, and 4. Click on “Create Topic” at the bottom of the screen. Let me know if this does not work for you. ---

You are welcome Mary @Disco2 . Do reach out whenever you encounter any difficulty. We rebuilt this site in 2018 to hopefully make this forum more user friendly and so it would work on a wide variety of platforms / devices. I see now that you have been making yourself known, thanks! ---

The most easy way Dee @HighHopes is to access your profile and in the “Preferences” tab to click on the wrench and change, modify, or add alternate email address. The Way: 1. Click on your picture icon - for you, the “H” in a yellow circle. that will cause a bar with symbols to appear; 2. Select the “person character”; 3. Select “summary”; 4. Select “Preferences”; 5. Scroll down to the eMail section, click the tool and make your change. While you are on that page, you can make any number of chances on how you appear. **After making changes** , be certain to scroll to the bottom an click “ **SAVE CHANGES** ”. If you need assistance, please let me know. ---
