We warmly welcome you to the newly designed and responsive Community. In order to ensure you to continuously get the most out of the platform, we collected the most important information for you.
By introducing the new design, we also took the opportunity to newly structure the content and to introduce new features. In the following, we will explain the most important ones to you.
Content structure
On the entry page, you will find the latest news at a glance:
- Top News: In here, you will see the topics currently most discussed by the community users.
- Latest Solutions: Shows you the user generated solutions of the past seven days.
- The Community Blog offers you the latest three articles.
- You will also find featured videos, which will occasionally be updated.
- And at the bottom you will find the section “Can you help”, where the postings are listed that still await an answer.
Upload Individual Avatars
Besides the familiar UPC avatars, you may also upload your individual avatar:
- Go to “My settings” and click on the tab “Avatars”
- Click then on your current avatar
- Then on the small pen-icon next to the picture
- Click on “Choose another avatar”
- Upload your picture
- Don’t forget to save (twice)
Please note, that for your individual avatars the same rules apply as for the content. We reserve the right to delete inappropriate pictures.
User Information and Private Messages
In the desktop version, we activated the mouse over effect. By placing your cursor on the user’s name, a window with the short user profile will pop up. From there, you can choose to send a private message (PM) to the user. Or you may view the full user profile.
We sincerely hope, you will enjoy the new community and look forward to your feedbacks and comments.
