Forum URL: (private) I see that I can log into my forum (still under construction) as a guest, which is helpful, but how would I create a registered member for testing purposes? If I try to register my guest "account", should I use my global email and password or something different?
Specifically, I'd like to go through the procedure that a guest would go through when they register, as well as making sure everything on the forum is as it should be for registered members.

Rob - do not use something different. The easiest way for you to create an alternate/secondary/member account for yourself is this: 1. While logged into the forum look for the User Bar ![](http://dev.prbrds.com/s/o/xJakljgETLIXQWTElFiW.png) in the lower-right of the window. 2. Click on the Switch Account icon ![](http://storage.proboards.com/forum/images/switch_user.png) 3. You should now be on the Select Account page. Below your accounts, centered on the page, the first link should be: "Create a new account on this forum." Click that link and enter the desired username. That's it. Whenever you want to test, just go back to the User Bar > Switch Account and you can jump from your "member" account to your admin account easily without having to logout/login etc. What specifically did you want to test that a new experiences when they register?

What specifically did you want to test that a new experiences when they register? I just want to be able to see the forum exactly the way a registered member would see it. I think once I actually "go live" and get used to a routine, I doubt there would be many times I would want or need to log in as a non-admin registered member, but I like to have that option. I'm thinking there might be a situation where a member or members might be having an issue with something and it might help to just be able to literally look at things from their point of view. Anyway, thanks, that was easy enough. I'd actually done that about a month ago before the Google Password Manager started cornfuzzling things and wreaking havoc.
