Questions about Accounts

Q: What does having a free account allow me to do?

A: A free Dirt! Community account on this website civic space will allow you to create content - in the form of *comments and, at this time, *events. If you want to submit events to thedirt.org, then you must be a registered user. (In the future we will be building in greater capabilities to sort users as organizers also.) Either way, having an account will allow you to edit your events after they are submitted and comment on the forums and blogs.

Q: How do I get an account?

A: To create an account for yourself, click on Create new account which is visible in the "User Login" block in the left hand corner of the page. It is useful to note that if no one is logged in on the browser you are using, you should see a "User Login" block in the left hand corner of the webpage. If anyone is logged in with your browser, the "User Login" block will not be present as it auto-deactivates.

Q: I forgot my password, what do I do?

A: In the same "User Login" block, click on Request new password,
then at the next screen put in your username OR your e-mail
address. Your new password will be e-mailed to the e-mail address
stored in the Civicspace database.
