The Directory tab allows you access to a search function that can search any directory entries made on behalf of your organisation. Obviously, if your organisation has not added any listings as yet, then there will be nothing listed.
Adding a directory entry for your organisation: To add a directory entry click on New Entry.
Fill in the details that are asked for, noting that the category has to be chosen by clicking on the small down arrow at the right hand side of the box.
Categories: Clicking on the category box produces a very long list of possible categories! If you are a community group, then choose Community, Social, Other Clubs or whichever other category you feel is appropriate. You will also notice that you have to select the locality from a similar drop down list. Please Note: Do not include your post code or locality in the address box as this is recorded when you select the locality from the drop down box. When filling in the contact details, please note that all private and organisational Email addresses are masked within the system. If a visitor to your website wishes to send you an email they will click on a link, fill in a form and that will be sent to your email address as required. This has been introduced to combat SPAM mailers from harvesting accessible email addresses. Description of your organisation: The description box is very important for your visibility on the MySouthWest site, as the words typed in here will also be the words that the search function on MySouthWest will pay regard to. For example, if you add that your group is involved with youth, then anyone entering youth in their search will find your listing.
You should also note that there is no spell checker in the
description box, so if you would prefer, type the text into
Microsoft Word™, run a spell check on it and then
copy it back into the description box. Having filled in all
the details and uploaded a logo as in the template section of the
Website Wizard, click on save entry. Editing an existing entry:On returning to the Directory page you will now see your directory entry.
Click on the Name of the newly created Directory listing. This will take you back to the data entry screen. By clicking into each box in turn, you can amend any details already there, or add any new details that might be required.
Please Note: Each entity is entitled to only one entry within the directory. If your organisation fits into two different categories, you will need to select the one that best fits. Viewing your organisations visibility on MySouthWest: To check out what your listing looks like on the actual MySouthWest site, open a new Internet Explorer window and go to http://www.mysouthwest.com.au Once there, click into the search box at the top right and type in a word that appears in your organisation's description or that is part of your name. A listing of the
directory entry will be visible. By clicking on the
link you can see the whole article just as it will be seen
by anyone visiting the whole of the MySouthWest
site.
