Instructions for our front page

Our front page is virtually identical across our three main sites. In this article, we'll focus on the free website, which is essentially the only gateway to our platforms; therefore, the only place anyone who wants to join us needs to register.

We'll look at the general layout, visible to anyone, but also at some restricted areas, components, modules, and features that can be used even by unregistered users.

We remind you that, like our entire system, the appearance of our websites, the exact order of modules, certain colors, or content, may be subject to changes, improvements, and modifications, based on our needs and decisions.

For authorized individuals, those with important roles, higher user types, and those with a certain number of points, we will make similar informational articles available for each website on our platform, with corresponding instructions.

The appearance of all our websites obviously varies slightly, depending on the type of device you use, the browser you use, or whether or not you use our apps. We'll try to be as detailed but brief as possible.

Logo, translation form, welcome message, login form.

The first module is represented by our logo, which changes on each of our websites, based on the name of the subdomain you are on, and the use of the website.

Clicking on the logo will almost always return you to our home page. Our official logos are proposed, discussed, created, tested, selected, voted on, and implemented by our official logo management teams.

The translation module is almost always at the top of the main websites, but it can be found in other corners, on our other subdomains and other websites. To translate any section from English into your preferred language, simply click "-English-" and scroll through the drop-down menu that opens until you find your preferred language. Clicking on it will automatically translate our website into your preferred language. Do not enable multiple automatic translators at once, and do not use the automatic translator for posts in other languages or for posts that are already in your preferred language.

Our welcome message on the main websites tells you welcome to our system, and directs you to scroll down a little further to see our public areas.

This message is necessary because many people, grossly mistaken, believe that to see our public areas, they must join us, register, and create a public profile.

At this point, you'll find the somewhat cumbersome login form for our website. This is used to access our reserved areas. If you're already a user and your personal profile has already been activated, you can enter your username and password, chosen by you, using the registration form and then log in by clicking "Log in." The login form will then shrink and your username will appear.

You can log in with a passkey if you've set one, or after your first login, if you've set up two-factor authentication, you'll need to follow the instructions on the respective screens. Our system will provide you with visual support through the respective messages. If you've forgotten your login credentials—your username, your password, or both—you can recover them quickly, securely, and automatically by following the instructions in this informative article:

Depending on what you forgot, click the appropriate button on the login form and follow the on-screen instructions, or read the article at the previous link for more details.

The search form allows you to find information based on your needs.

Scrolling further down, our main menu finally appears. Here's what it looks like before logging in:

Here's what it looks like after logging in as a registered user of a higher level. You'll notice that some main menu items have appeared, which aren't visible and accessible without logging in to our website and having the necessary permissions. There are thousands of submenu items and tens of thousands of forms, with hundreds of thousands of pieces of information, visible only to those with a certain level of user status, and often a certain number of points. These numbers and capabilities are constantly growing, as are the requirements for accessing certain areas that provide more information.

Obviously, if you visit us on tablets, smartphones, and similar devices, and not from a PC or laptop, instead of the horizontal menu, you will see the three lines, which are the icon of our main menu, with the various submenu items , divided by category, sub-categories, and infinite links, to many informative articles, components, modules, and a multitude of potential features.

To see many of these features, from any device, we have a very detailed and extensive "- Offcanvas -" menu, where you can find many interesting things. It's not very visible, but you can find it easily enough, knowing about its existence. It consists of three horizontal triangles, usually red, and they open the menu, usually on the right:

The “-Breadcrumbs-” module allows you to see where you are, at any moment, on our website, and you can click on the various captions, to go to a specific location, or to return to the first page.

The next module tells you in English: "-Innovation,-alternative,-to-all-other-systems-". It's basically the essence of who we are: innovation alternative to all other systems.

We have finally arrived at the various articles, in the central space of our website.

Please note: small, unobtrusive spaces are provided, with some internal advertising within our system, or based on advertising contracts entered into directly by our groups for the management of advertising space with various commercial companies, including external ones. We do not use external companies or websites for our advertising; we only use direct contacts and contracts, without any intermediaries.

We proceed in the same way with all our activities.

In the next informative article, you will see the next parts of this presentation of our first page, and some instructions, before moving on to the other pages, components, modules, and capabilities.
