Support Request Template

Postby Erik Frèrejean » 05 Feb 2009, 15:25

In order to provide the best support possible, we request that you provide some basic information about your setup. If you have a general question unrelated to a specific board then you may skip this process.

In some cases, such as when the problem is occurring on a page not accessible to guests, it may be helpful to also provide a test account. You should never post details to an account with moderation or administration permissions, however.

An addition on the following part of the Support Request Template:

Erik Frèrejean wrote:Test account*:

*A test account (username/password) may be helpful if team members need to view a page hidden to guests.

If a user with more permissions than "Registered user" is required to see the problem do not fill this out. If required a team member will ask you to PM these user credentials, do never give this information to a non team member.

Thanks for understanding :hello:
