Go To Top Of PageCan I use polytonic Greek in my post?

You can use unicode polytonic Greek. Read more at Elpenor's help pages. Please don't copy and paste your text from MS Word or other processors, because it will appear distorted and will be removed and lost. You should be able to write Greek directly in the message editing area. Always write the title of your post (subject) in English, so that all visitors may have an idea of what is published. Please note: if you was able to post and read messages in Greek, but your browser now displays garbage instead of Greek, first check in View - Encoding if Unicode UTF-8 is selected. If it is not, you must select it manually, if it is already selected, try to close your browser and then open it again to see if the problem is fixed.

Go To Top Of PageCan I be notified by e-mail when there are new posts?

Yes, the Subscription feature allows you to subscribe to the entire Board, individual Categories, Forums and/or Topics, depending on what the administrator of this site allows. You will receive an e-mail notifying you of a post that has been made to the Category/Community/Topic that you have subscribed to. There are four levels of subscription:

- Board Wide Subscription
If you can subscribe to an entire Board, you'll get a notification for any posts made within all the Communities inside that board.

- Category Wide Subscription
You can subscribe to an entire Category, which will notify you if there was any posts made within any topic, within any Community, within that Category.

- Community Wide Subscription
If you don't want to subscribe to an entire Category, you can subscribe to a single Community. This will notify you of any posts made within any topic, within that Community.

- Topic Wide Subscription
More conveniently, you can subscribe to just an individual topic. You will be notified of any post made within that topic.
Each level of subscription is optional. The administrator can turn On/Off each level of subscription for each Category/Community/Topic.
To Subscribe or Unsubscribe from any level of subscription, you can use the "My Subscriptions" link, located near the top of each page to manage your subscriptions. Or you can click on the subscribe/unsubscribe icons (Subscribe UnSubscribe) for that Category/Community/Topic you want to subscribe/unsubscribe to/from.
