There is a page in the public-facing part of the website called Sponsors.  The sponsors listed on this page (if there are any) actually come from the members database (remembering that the members database can contain other people than just regular members - including, in this case, sponsors).


So rather than edit the contents of this page directly, the best way to get sponsors to appear on this page is to do the following...

  1. If the sponsor is not a member of your group, then you need to add them to the member database first.  This is done in the usual way that you would add any member.  If the sponsor is a company, then the first name and surname that you enter would correspond to the main contact point for your group within that company
  2. Locate the member in the member database, and click their surname to view the page that contains their profile
  3. Click the Update member details button
  4. Click the Sponsor tab
  5. Enter the company name, website, logo, contact details, and some advertising copy in the main box at the bottom.
  6. Click Save at the bottom


The next step is to make sure that the member's membership specifies a Type/role of Sponsor To do this, proceed as follows..

  1. Across the middle of their Profile page there is a series of clickable tabs; the one displayed by default is the member's membership details. Click on the Update button at the top-left corner of this tab.
  2. On the Membership Details page, scroll down to the Type/role heading, and check the Sponsor tickbox.  If that person is also a member, you can also tick the box called Member
  3. Click Save at the bottom


The details you entered on the Sponsor tab of the member details page will now be automatically formatted to appear on the Sponsors page.
