Quick Start Guide | 101ChristianDating(beta)

NOTE: to search member profiles, some fields in your profile MUST be filled out first. These are marked ‘Required‘ and found in these 4 profile sections: BASICS, ABOUT ME, CHRISTIAN LIFE, Q&A). NOTE: Edit or view your profile by clicking your profile image thumbnail top right of any page.

Get started on 101 Dating

SEARCHING PROFILES: I recommend searching and communicating with members on a larger desktop screen, but any device works. TIP: bookmark profiles you like by clicking the ‘LIKE‘ or ‘FRIEND‘ button on the profile. If this loses your place in search pages eg [1] [2]… avoid this by right-clicking ‘LIKE‘ or ‘FRIEND‘ and select ‘Open Link in New Tab’ (left-click on PC). Then browse your Liked profiles or Friends at your leisure (click your profile image thumbnail top right of any page then selecting ‘Like’ or ‘Friends’).
YOUR PROFILE: You can edit and view your profile by clicking the profile image thumbnail top right of the screen.
PHOTOS: trouble adding pics? – email 3 max to me (Ed/site owner: epgb101@gmail.com) with Username and I’ll add for you and delete them when done.
REFRESH: if you don’t see new mail, updates or members – refresh page (click circular icon top browser) or delete cache (see browser Settings).
GENERAL: site may be easier on desktop or tablet than mobile phone (no mobile app yet).
HELP US: please delete unwanted mail, notifications or photos to speed up your service. Thanks.

Other Stuff..

Report Misuse: my No.1 priority is safety. That means the best way to support 101 is to report ANY suspect use of our site using the contact link at the bottom of any page straight away to spare others so I can investigate. Include exact username.
Join some Groups: click Groups at top of page then click the + sign on the main group image. Post some interesting items or news, or post in the forum that each group has. Things you post in groups appears on the main Activity / Wall. If you want to create a group contact us via the link at the bottom of any page.
Get your account verified and a ‘Verified’ badge. This is super-important as with so many scammers on the Internet it lets other members know you are a real/trusted member. Simply email me some photoID (driver license or passport) and I will take care of the rest and delete your email/data after. Or – if you are already a known/trusted member of Fusion101 or I know you let me know and I’ll verify your account!
Write Articles?: if you’d like to blog and write articles on any subject that interests you (like or preferably better than this one🙂 for 101FREEChristianDating’s community (or any of our sites) – Christian, current events or other to edify our members on different subjects – contact us via the link at the bottom of any page and we will grant your account ‘writer’ ability to create articles.
Please Be Kind: treat our Christian brothers and sisters kindly, try to answer messages – even if it’s to say you cannot take things further – God bless you – Edward 🙂
