UPDATE: 25-Nov-2011 – We have been experiencing issues with WordPress and members are not able to create or edit their profile page. A few of us are trying to find a fix to the problem. There will be an email/communication to our members as soon as this is resolved! In the meantime, new members, please post a “profile” of yourself, tag it under “member’s profile”.

1. If you already have a Member Page, and simply need to edit it (for example, to add categories), once you have logged in, click Dashboard at the bottom of the left menu, under Extra.

2. In the dashboard, click Pages.

3. Find your page in the list. Place your mouse under your name, and some options will appear:

4. From here, you have two choices:

4a. If you don’t need to add any new categories or text changes, you can just click Quick Edit. In Quick Edit, you can choose from the list of existing categories, then click Update, and you are done!

4b. If you do need new categories or want to edit the text on your page, you will need to click Edit and choose the appropriate Categories for you from the Categories box on the right-hand side of the page.

5. If you need to add a new category, feel free to do so, but please make sure that you put it under the appropriate Parent Category.

To add a New Category, click ‘+ Add New Category’, type in the name of the category:
