Webmaster

The primary function of the Webmaster is obviously to maintain the probusblue website.

Domain URL: https://probusblue.ca is owned by William Booth and is registered with Cloudflare.com The website files are Hosted on Bettersitehost.com The program used to produce the website is known as Stacks and TCMS.

Weekly (at minimum) attention to the site is required to keep information up-to-date and accurate. Regular updates are made to: - Calendar - News Letter - Meeting Review - Membership changes.

The Membership Roster is maintained in a secure database called Sitelok. This database holds the name, address, email, phone data etc. for each member, as well as their internal group affiliations, such as cycling, investment clubs. Sitelok facilitates blasting emails to all members, select groups, or individuals. It also provides security - login requirements - for the MemberListing and Kultural Attaché pages.

Input is generally supplied by the various Management Committee chairs, usually by Word document email. The Webmaster is in close contact with the Newsletter and Review chairs who essentially write the news/reviews and send it in to be appropriately formatted for the internet.

Time is of the essence to keep members informed. Suggestions for new features or changes to existing information are always welcome.
