Getting Started


Welcome to the Rocket Forum! We’re glad you’re here.
There are a lot of features for you to check out, so let’s get you started.

NOTE: If you've registered with a personal email and we can't associate your account to a business account with Rocket, your access/functionality may be limited. It's perfectly fine if you've done this, but we encourage you to help us make this connection so you have the best experience possible. Contact a moderator if you feel like you may be missing access, for instance to the member directory. We can fix that once we know who you are!


GETTING AROUND

Use the navigation menu at the top of each page to work your way around the site.

From here you can head to:

  • Home: Brings you back to the Forum's landing page.
  • Forums: Access the full list of our forums (All Forums), the list of forums you’ve already joined (My Forums), and easily post a message to any of the forums you’ve joined.
  • Members: Search for other Rocket Forum users by their name, email, or interests they’ve entered on their profile.
  • Help/FAQs: A list of helpful information, and frequently asked questions.
  • My Profile: See/update all of your forum-related information including forums subscriptions, email preferences, contributions and your forum mailbox.


TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF

Speaking of profile, having an updated profile is the best way to have a great Forum experience. Other members want to know who they are talking to, and put a 'face to a name.' Adding details about your role, interests, industry and location can help you build your network.

A lot of profile features can be directly accessed via your personalized dashboard on the home page. The drop down box in the upper right corner of any page, next to your picture/silhouette, gets you there from any page.

 
The dashboard also suggests actions to improve your forum experience and help you get the most from it.

JOIN THE CONVERSATION

We have a growing list of forums on specific topics of interest. Access them by selecting “Forums,” then “All Forums.” See something that sparks your interest? Feel free to join in! Don't see a forum you are looking for, suggest a new one by contacting the moderator via the link in the page footer.



You’re already a member of the General Discussion Forum. Joining the forums for the products you use is essential to have the best site experience - that way you'll see exactly what you want, and will be offered the opportunity to participate in exclusive activities, discussions and events.


GET CONNECTED AND GROW YOUR NETWORK

Did you find a comment or discussion post particularly interesting? Click on that person’s avatar or name to get to their profile and send them an invitation to connect. You can also search our directory by clicking on Members in the navigation bar to find users who share your interests or are experts in areas you want to explore.

 
CHECK YOUR SETTINGS

We value your privacy and want you to feel comfortable with what you share, what others can view, and how much you hear from us.


Navigate to your Profile and then click on My Account to review your settings to make sure everything looks right:

  • Privacy Settings: Choose which information is displayed to the public (anyone with access to the link), members (all members of Rocket Forum), your contacts (people who you’ve connected with), or only you.
  • Email Preferences: Update the types of emails you’ll receive from us. We recommend selecting “Yes” on each of these categories, so you don’t miss out on important news. We promise not to overwhelm you with information.
  • Forum Notifications: Tell us how you’d like to receive updates from your forums. You can select a Daily Digest, Real Time, or No Email. We recommend the Daily Digest for those who want to stay in touch, and Real Time for super users who want to stay connected to conversations as they develop. 


You’re all set - now it's time to dive in and join a discussion!
