This is a bug we've commonly seen crop up for Mac users using the Safari browser. We would suggest downloading Firefox (www.mozilla.com). It may also occur if your anti-virus program is set at too stringent a setting.
Step 1 - Login to SelfGrowth.com - http://www.selfgrowth.com/user
Step 2 - Go to the "Edit My Expert Page" tab
Step 3 - In the first section, ("Full Name") look half-way down the page for the picture section. Press the "Browse" button to find the file on your computer, "Upload" to upload the photo, and be sure to press "Submit" when you're finished to update your page.
You can only be listed under one topic at this time. You can however submit articles and websites under multiple topics.
Don't worry - these links will appear for any other expert viewing your page (and you can see them yourself if you log out). They just won't appear when you're logged in as yourself, as you have no need to contact yourself.
No. All messages must be sent one-by-one.
This commonly happens when you cut-and-paste text from a website, into Word or a similar program, and into the expert page editor. The programs "remember" the code and try to stick it in your expert page.
The best thing to do is to open Notepad, paste the text there, and save it as a plain text file (.txt). Now, open the expert page editor. Delete everything in the field giving you a a problem (press ctrl-a to select it all, then "delete" to delete it). Then, paste in the plain text from Notepad.
A SelfGrowth.com account user sent you a message to your account. This is just a notification. DO NOT REPLY BACK TO THE E-MAIL FROM SELFGROWTH.COM.
What do you do?
- Login (automatically taken to your account information/dashboard)
- Click on "messages" on the right side
This messaging system is a great way to connect with other SelfGrowth.com members. Get to know each other!
On the "Most Active Users" page, each listing can show a featured website that the user has selected, driving traffic to the site of their choice. You can choose that website by clicking the "Edit Account Info" tab and filling the url in the "Favorite Website" section.
The system resets the count every day at midnight, Eastern Standard Time, and resets the weekly count every Monday. Thus, the count is not for the past 24 hours or past 7 days instead, it's based on fixed times and dates.
Userpoints are given once a piece of content (articles, websites and events) has been published by an editor. Thus, content that is submitted but rejected (or, just content that hasn't been approved yet) will not result in user points being given.
Click on the “My Network” tab in the member center. Look for the link that says “Invite New Experts into Network.” Use our invite feature and enter the email addresses of those you'd like to invite. For each person who signs up, you'll get 20 user points.
The user point system launched on June 28, 2009, and only actions that are performed after June 28th, 2009 can receive user points. Therefore, if you have an expert page or articles built before this time, there's no way to get fresh user points for these items.
We are very particular about what we put in our popular newsletter. If you feel your article should be in one – please contact Sam@selfgrowth.com with the link to your article on Selfgrowth.com. Articles need to be between 650-1200 words with a complete biography of the author.
Please be aware that Selfgrowth.com approves everything first before it appears on our website. It may take a few days before your article, website, and or event is published. We ask that you please be patient.
If you have any other questions, concerns, or comments – please fill out a feedback form and someone will get back to you in 1-3 days. Thank you! http://www.selfgrowth.com/feedback.html
