CWRL forums are now administered with Drupal. This page explains how to create a topic, reply to a topic, and how to set up an account.

Creating a Forum Topic (Instructors)

At the beginning of the semester, all CWRL classes will have forums accessible through http://www.cwrl.utexas.edu/forum. To add a new topic to your forum, simply log-in and choose create content>forum topic. Make sure you add the new topic to the appropriate class forum: select your class from the drop-down Forums menu (above the Body field).

Replying to a Topic (Students and Instructors)

Although anyone can read a forum topic and comments, you must log in to reply (account details below). You can either reply directly to the topic by filling out the form at the bottom of the page displaying the active topic and replies, or you can make a threaded reply to a particular comment by clicking on the reply link under the comment in question.

Creating an Account (Students)

To create an account, click on Log In at the top right of the screen. Then choose the register tab and fill in your user name* and e-mail address. This e-mail address will receive a message with your password and instructions, so make sure it is accurate. If you do not see receive an e-mail with the subject 'Account details for ______' within a few minutes, check your bulk/junk mail folder.

*Your user name must be your first and last name. Accounts with nicknames will be deleted.
