TBN Directory
• The TBN Directory is a tool to find like-minded people to work with.
• It’s live now on the TBN Portal at http://tbnetworkportal.org
• It’s an “Opt-In” directory, you choose if you want to appear in the directory and how much information to make available.
• Information is only available to registered users.
Getting Started
• Firstly, you must login, the Directory is only available to registered users.
• Once you login, “TBN Directory” appears as a menu option under Communicate/Share
On the first screen you can enter your Search
Criteria
If you already know a person’s name or part of their address, and just want to find their full details,
enter what you know in the “Contact Information” box.
Each person in the Directory has the opportunity to enter a summary of their
interests. Enter key words or phrases in the “Interests Summary” box to search this
information.
To search for people with particular interests or skills to offer, tick one
or more of these check boxes.
Either leave the Country blank to search for any Country in that Region, or select
a Country.
Then click “Add Regional Interest”
First select a Region
You can add a list of Regional Interests to search for people with
interests in particular regions or countries.
The Regional Interests you have selected appear here.
You can add additional Regions, or click “Delete” to delete a Region.
Now click Search
The display switches automatically to the “Search Results” tab
Hover your mouse over the person’s name to see their
contact details
If you don’t find what you are looking for, click the “Search
Criteria” tab to modify your search and try again
If you are entering your details for the first time, any details that you entered when you registered with this site will be copied to this page.
Enter as much or as little information as you wish. For example if you do not want your email address to be
included, simply leave it blank.
The “Interest Summary” box is used to augment the “Interests”
checkboxes.
Please try to use key words that other users are likely to search for.
Of course you can search without entering your own details, but the
Directory will only be useful if everybody enters their own details.
Click the “Edit My Entry” tab.
Scroll down to the “Interests and offerings” section.
Tick all that apply.
You can also indicate which regions or countries you are interested in.
The process of adding these is the same as on the search page.
If you leave the Country blank, then this indicates you are interested in
the entire Region.
Finally, click “Save”
In Conclusion• Thank you for your time and attention.• The Book Reviews, Book Shop & TBN Directory
are live now at http://tbnetworkportal.org, so please try them out on the PC’s here.
• But please, enter your own details into the Directory – otherwise there will be very little to Search.
