your Directory Listing
:

Go to the bottom of your listing page and click "edit this listing"
Submit your password
Click on "Edit your Listing"
Modify your information and click "submit."
…Build/Edit a
website
on HumboldtMusic.com
Note: Only "artists" (bands, musicians, etc) receive a free webpage. If you are a "resource" (business, festival, etc) please contact us for information about how to get a webpage on HumboldtMusic.com.
Cookies must be enabled for many of the site configuration features to work properly.
If you haven't entered your Directory listing, do so (see above).
Find your listing (go to "search" and type in your listing name)
Go to the bottom of your listing page and click "edit this listing"
Submit your password
Click on "Edit your custom website"
Use the "color picker" charts to choose your colors (text, links, backgrounds,etc). Use the "Font style" drop-down menu to select a font for your pages. Click "see how it looks." You may upload images for your background, your "header," or your "front page" image by clicking on the links below the color pickers. When you're done selecting colors, click "continue."
Choose from the link menu on the left to access and modify your website's content:
Link Menu from your Humboldtmusic.com
Website Administration page:
Upload Images
: Upload photos or graphics for your front page, background, and header. Opens in a new window; after you upload, hit "refresh" on your admin page to see the changes.
Edit Name, Title, Description
: Modify your Humboldtmusic Listing, including contact info and small "button" graphic for rotation.
Manage Songs
: Enter Lyrics*, the "Story behind the song*," writing/performance credits, etc. Then you may upload an Mp3 and set the permissions (okay to download, streaming only, etc.)
Note:
Businesses will see a "
manage coupons
" link instead
Activate/Deactivate Calendar
: Toggles the "gigs" link on and off. When the calendar is "activated," your visitors may click on the gigs link and see a list of all of the HM calendar's events which have your name in their title, description, or keywords. (businesses: "Gigs" becomes "events")
Press
: Type or paste the text that will appear on your "Press" page. The "Press" link will only appear on your site after some content is entered through the "press" form.*
Front Page Text
: Appears below your front page graphic and caption.*
Edit Text & page colors
: Modify the "color scheme" of your website; font color, link color, backgrounds. here you may also modify the font face used on your site.
Edit QuickURL
: Whatever word you enter into this form will be in the URL you can give out to people to get them to your website at Humboldtmusic.com, i.e.: "http://www.humboldtmusic.com/
nameofyourband
"
Edit Search Term
: Modify the keyword(s) used to search the HumboldtMusic calendar for your events via your page's "gigs" link. By default, your
name
(as it appears in the directory) is used, but sometimes events will be missed (if an event doesn't use all the words in your listing name, if your name is misspelled in the event description, etc.). If you think there is a search term that is more "foolproof" than your listing name for finding all of your events, use the "searchterm" feature, otherwise, leave it
blank
.
View WebPage
: Open the "live" version of your site in a new window, so you see what the public sees. Hit "refresh" on the live site whenever you make a change from your admin page.
Log Out
: Signs you off, so the next person playing with your computer can't access your website management features.
*NEW: you can now edit your text interactively using our
WYSIWYG
editor!

Our Forums now require logins for complete access. You can read it all whether you have an account or not, but you need a Forums Account to post new messages or reply to existing messages. Wondering why we require a login?
Click here
!
If you're a local musician or a local Music Resource and you're listed in the Humboldtmusic.com
Directory
, you probably already have an account: just
log in
using the email and password from that account.
If you are not in the Humboldtmusic.com Directory and you want to participate in the Forums,
sign up here
for an account.
Note: you don't need to use your real name, but a valid email is required (That email address is kept private, but folks can still contract you directly via a secure form)
. You will then receive an email which contains a link that you must click in order to activate your account.
At that point, you get access to the forums, but not to the WYSIWYG and all of the other perks. We upgrade your account after that (the next time we're doing stuff on the site), when we're convinced that you are a real human and not a SPAM-bot. Questions?
