Finding a service guide

The following Guides cover the main RescueGroups.org services and should get you using your new service.  Remember that the Pet Adoption Portal is free so if you haven't already set up the service, we urge you to do so.  It's our most popular and most widely complimented service!  We've devoted an entire guide to helping you to set it up and use it.

You are currently reading the Getting Started with RescueGroups.org guide, which is an introduction to our services in general and covers a few basic topics like logging in, finding help, and so forth.

• The Individual service guides include:
  • The Pet Adoption Portal
  • Website Service Guide
  • Data Management Guide
  • Email Marketing Service Guide
  • Online Forms Guide

Using the guides

The view of the guides is different depending on whether you're on your computer or your phone or tablet.  The most significant difference you'll see is that on your phone you won't see the list of topics on the left navigation bar.  From your computer, you will see a list of clickable topics like the one below, from the Getting Started with RescueGroups.org guide.  Notice that the title of this article, Finding help in the documentation, is in bold, so as to help you find your place in the guide.  Also notice that the title of this chapter has a bullet point to its left.  The chapter beneath, Getting familiar with your account interface, by contrast, has a right-pointing arrow.  The arrow signifies that the page has related pages connected to it.  Click the arrow to expand the list of connected pages.  The bullet point indicates there are no related pages.
