Q: Can I create blogs, upload videos, photos, images and audios for access by my students only?

A: Yes, provided you have a subscription in good standing that includes upload/create authorization for those media.  All media uploaded or created on the Soo Bahk Do Institute are set private by default. Private media can only be viewed and accessed by friends of the owner who uploaded it, so you will need to tell your students to "Friend" your account. Studio Owners may want to create two accounts: 1) personal account with your personal photo as profile picture that you accept friend requests from anyone and  2) Your Studio Account with your studio logo as profile picture and use that account to only accept friend requests from your students. Tell your students to "Friend" your studio account in order to gain access to your studio content for your students. You can then add as much content as you want to your private "Virtual Dojang" and only your students with subscriptions to the Institute who have "Friended" your studio account will have access to your content.  You must approve all "Friend" requests.

Q: I can't get the videos to play. They do nothing at all or they stop and hang. What should I do?

A: Check the following: successful video playing depends on several factors that must all work properly together. Your internet connection bandwidth must be adequate (dial up connections are unlikely to work satisfactorily), your computer must be in good working order, you must use a browser that is supported by the site.  The Soo Bahk Do Institute should perform satisfactorily on IE8, IE9 has issues, Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera.  The Institute is currently Flash based and does not yet support playback on iPhones or iPads, but that feature is coming soon.  If you still have trouble with a video, use the REPORT button to mark the video and describe the problem so an administrator can find it.

Q: I found something that is broken or does not work as expected. What should I do?

A: Please reports any bugs, problems, or feature requests on the bug blog here.

Q: I registered to be an Affiliate and the application asked for a "PayPal email address." What is that or how do I get one?

A: Your PayPal email address is the email address you use to log into your PayPal account.  Affiliate Questions and Answers are posted on the private Affiliate blog and are accessible when you "Friend" the site member "Affiliate."
