Under General, establish default, parent, or child settings for an individual website.
| 1. | Under General, in the Site name field, enter a name for the site. In the Parent site field, select a parent site to inherit global settings. |
| 2. | In the Site URL field, enter a new URL for a new site or change an existing URL for an existing site. You must enter the full URL, such as “http://www.example.org”. If a message appears that informs you it is not valid, check your Domain Name System (DNS) configuration. |
Warning: When “/netcommunity/” appears in your URL by default, you can remove it but you must uninstall and reinstall the program to do so. Additional technical steps are also required. For more information, visit www.blackbaud.com and access BB529196 in Knowledgebase.
| 3. | In the Time zone field, select your organization’s default time zone. For example, if your organization is located in New York, select “New York (EST) GMT-5:00.” |
The time and dates the user sees on your site pages and email in the program use the time zone specified on the User Profile Form part. If the user does not specify a time zone on the User Profile Form part, the time zone selected in the Time zone field appears as the default. The program uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as its time standard, and time zones are expressed as offsets from the UTC. This allows the program to retain time and date information and display it accurately in multiple time zones.
If you do not select a default time zone in the Time Zone field, the program uses the date and time zone from the web server.
| 4. | To save the settings, click Save. |
