VOX Support

We have set up a form for you to use if you need any help with using your blog or if you’ve found a bug (something that doesn’t work as it should). You can just click here or click on the ‘Contact Us’ link to the right under ‘My Pages’. Please make sure you check whether the HowTo guides on the right cover what you need to know before filling out a request for support. Also, if you have any suggestions, feel free to post them here too. Thanks.

Do you know that you can stay updated with the latest posts from Vox Cafe using Firefox Live Bookmark instead of always checking www.voxtropolis.com?

A Firefox Live Bookmark will conviniently display the latest posts from Vox Cafe as a dropdown on your toolbar.

To configure your Vox Live Bookmark follow the directions below:

1. Go to http://voxtropolis.com and click on the orange icon in the address bar. Select one of the three “Add Atom 0.3 as Live Bookmark.” It doesn’t matter which one you select.

2. In the Add Live Bookmark window, make sure that it creates in “Bookmarks Toolbar Folder” and click OK.

3. The same orange icon with Voxtropolis should be added to your tool bar. Right-click over the icon and select properties.

3. For Feed Location enter “http://voxtropolis.com/voxfeed/”

4. Your Live Bookmark is now ready and you can now have access to the latests posts even when you browse other sites. =)

Note: you can follow the same steps and add your favorite Vox to your tool bar as well. =)

Tip: Do you know that you can also add to your Vox page a Vox Cafe feed, your favorite VOX, and other RSS feeds using the sidebar RSS widget?

Tested in Firefox 1.5.0.3 Win XP.

Click here for the HowTo guide on adding a profile pic to your VOX.

This will appear on the sidebar of your personal VOX and next to any comments you post.

When you first set up your Vox blog, the time zone is by default set to Greenwich Mean Time. In order for your posts and people’s comments on your blog to appear in your time zone, you will therefore probably need to adjust your time settings. To do this just read the HowTo on the right hand said or click here. Use the Contact Us form (under “Need Help?”) if you have any further questions about this.

See the first few HOWTOs ——over there——> In the meantime, what other questions do you have. Feel free to leave questions as a comment below. We will work to quickly answer your questions.

Beta is a term used in computer development circles to define a website, program, or tool that is almost ready for full use but not tested.

Beta testing involves using lots of users to identify bugs, problems, and ways to make the tested item better.

While you’re finding the areas to correct, you make it better and keep going. Thanks for building this community with us.

How can I be a good ‘beta user’?

Test out all the features.
Identify problems/bugs that need to be resolved.
Help us make it the best possible place to blog.

This Support page is a place where you can find help, ask questions, and submit ideas how we can do things better.

You may be familiar with other blog sites and like features that are available there. We can’t be just like everybody immediately but we’re making progress. Two days ago we didn’t exist. Today you can tell the world your blog name and have them come find you here sharing your voice.

By contributing to the community here, you can help to make the site the best it can possibly be.

Welcome to Voxtropolis! Come on in, don’t mind the dust.
