LONG INSTRUCTIONS
This form allows you to register up to four email addresses with OLPH, so that
you can receive immediate and timely notification of urgent messages from
OLPH, such as the death of parishioner.
When you first register, you need to select a name and a password. There are
no restrictions on the contents of either, except that the password must be
at least 6 printable characters in length, and should contain one or more
special characters (mostly found on the 'number' row of your keyboard).
Whilst you may choose any name at all, it would be best if you use your given
name.
First time entry
-
The first step is to enter the name and password you have selected and
click the FIND button. If the system responds with 'Record NOT found' and
displays just the FIND and ADD buttons, your selected name and password are
unique and you may proceed to step 3 to enter your email address(es).
-
If you have somehow selected a name and password combination that someone
else is using (highly unlikely), you will need to select a different name or
password (or both) and return to step 1. Remember: it is the combination of
name and password that makes your entry unique in the database.
-
At this point, the system has responded with 'Record NOT found' and has
displayed a small form with the FIND and ADD buttons. You must supply a
primary email address. You may, optionally, supply up to three more
addresses, if you wish to receive notifications in multiple mail boxes. When
you have entered your desired email addresses, click the ADD button; the
system should respond with 'Record added'; the data in the form will remain
the same.
-
At this point, your data now resides in the database. You should write down
the name and email addresses you selected, or simply print the page. Remember
that it is never a good idea to write down your password; however, sometimes
you have to.
Updating your addresses
-
The first step is to enter your name and password and click the FIND
button. If the system responds with 'Record NOT found' and displays just the
FIND and ADD buttons, you likely mistyped your name and/or password. If you
have entered your name and password correctly, the system will respond with
'Record found' and display your addresses.
-
Make any changes you wish to your addresses, then click the CHANGE button.
If the system responds with 'Record changed', you will have successfully
updated your addresses and you are done. If the system responds with 'Record
NOT changed', you may have inadvertently changed your name and/or password;
in this case, correct your name and password and repeat step 2.
Deleting your data
-
The first step is to enter your name and password and click the FIND
button. If the system responds with 'Record NOT found' and displays just the
FIND and ADD buttons, you likely mistyped your name and/or password. If you
have entered your name and password correctly, the system will respond with
'Record found' and display your addresses.
-
Now click the DELETE button. The system should respond with 'Record
deleted'. You have now deleted your record in the database and are done.
Handling OOPSes
Inadvertent Deletions
If you inadvertently delete your record, simply click the ADD button to put
it back in.
Inadvertent Changes
If you inadvertently change your addresses, you will need to manually make
the changes to restore the addresses - there is no UNDO button.
Inadvertent Additions
If you have inadvertently added a record, simply click the DELETE button to
remove it from the system.
Important notes:
- The password you select must be at least 6
printable characters. You should use at least one special character
(found on the 'number' row).
-
Once you add, change or delete data, it is permanent; the action cannot
be undone.
-
It is higly improbable that you will select a name and password that matches
an existing entry in the daabase.
