Member Tutorial


Getting Started with JohnIsner.com

We're going to show you how to take full advantage of your John Isner membership so you can follow in John's footsteps as he rockets up the ATP rankings and takes out top-ranked players.

Your Main Menu

When you first log in to JohnIsner.com, you should see the following main menu appear at the top of your screen:

Member Main Menu

If for some reason you don't see this menu, you most likely forgot to click on the confirmation link in your welcome email.  If you can't find your email, log out and click "request new password" under the login block at top right.

We're going to break down the menu one by one, starting with:

My Account

The my account page shows your member history by default.  You'll notice the following list of tabs below your username:

Member account tabs

Edit - click on the edit tab to modify your member details, including your username, password, email address, and more. 

My notification settings - On this page you can select options that will notify you when new content has been posted to the site.  This will help you stay on top of the hottest happenings on JohnIsner.com Smiling

Track - The track page will show nothing at first, but is one of the most important aspects of your member account as it will track everything you do on the site.  From here you'll be able to see all your wine reviews, comments, and forum topics.  You'll be able to sort them to see only comments, only forum topics, arrange them by date, and more.

My Blog

On this page you create blog entries to keep track of happenings in your own tennis world - ie. tournament progress, rackets demoed, as well as anything you want to post on your favorite tennis players.  Write to your hearts content in your very own personal blog space!

My Inbox

Your inbox takes you to your own private mini-email program you can use to communicate with other members on the site.  This page will keep track of all your messages, both the ones you've received and the ones you've sent.  You can delete messages at any time.

Create Content

This is the bread and butter of your John Isner membership.  You can create a blog entry, which we've already discussed, or a forum topic, to make your mark in the Isner community and let your voice be heard!  Most of these are self-explanatory.  Note that you'll be able to track your own blog and forum postings under the "Track" tab of "My Account." 

Recent Posts

This page is like a "track" tab for the entire site.  Here you can follow all content updates on the site, click on an item to see it, see who wrote it, when it was published, and more.  You can also sort by all these criteria (for example, to see all forum topics by John).

Have fun and post any questions below!
