MANAGING your kla login

I. Setting up your account

Certain areas of this website – e.g., Events Registration, Buy & Sell – are accessible only to current members. In order to access those areas, you need to set up a login to the account we have created for your cottage by following the steps below.

1. From any page on this website click the [Log in] button on the right side of the top black bar.
2. Enter the primary email address at which you currently receive your KLA membership notification emails; no other email address will work, even if it is one where you have received e-blasts. 
   (If you are not receiving membership notifications, please contact our membership coordinator.)
3. Click the "Forgot Password" prompt. A link will be sent to your email address.
4. Follow the prompts. Review and accept the Wild Apricot terms of use.
5. Once you are logged in, click on [Your Name] in the black bar (top right) to view your member profile. Select [Edit Profile] to:
   1. Change your temporary password to something secure (that you can remember!)
   2. Make any necessary change to your contact information.
      Please note that the primary email address you choose in your profile will be the one required for future logins. It will also be the one to which KLA renewal notifications are sent. See below for options regarding additional emails.
   3. Add an Avatar, if you wish, so other members can recognize you.
   4. Privacy is presently set and locked:
      • NONE of your contact information is visible to the PUBLIC. 
      • LOGGED IN MEMBERS can currently see only what appears in the WAVELENGTH (your directory name, cottage road and cottage number); by default, they cannot see your email or phone information. This is to respect your privacy and prevent any accidental exposure of information you may not wish to share.
   5. Events. Please visit the Events page to see the dates and details for our seasonal events, and to register to participate. The AGM is now being held virtually in order to enable access and participation by more members; you must register to participate, and the Zoom link will be sent to all registrants 1-2 weeks before the meeting. Other events are held in person.
   6. Membership dues and donations. Any payments you have made for 2021 dues or donations should be reflected on this page. Please check to ensure the figures are accurate, and if there is a discrepancy, contact our treasurer at koshlongdues@gmail.com.
      
      Note that the “Member Since” date was generated automatically when your account was added to the system. You are not able to change this, but you can update the "On Koshlong Since" field, and if you know when you originally joined the KLA, email us at koshlongmembership@gmail.com, and we will update this field for you.
      
      Please disregard the “Renewal date” at this time.

Now you are ready to view all the pages available on the KLA website!

If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at koshlongweb@gmail.com, and we will get back to you in short order.

II. Adding CC emails to your account

Each KLA membership is assigned by cottage, not individual, even if there are multiple owners for a property. By default, there has been a single email associated with each account, and up to now this email has been the only one to receive platform-generated messages including dues reminders, event announcements, event registrations, and optionally notifications for Buy and Sell and Lost and Found.

If others in your cottage family would like to receive these notifications from the platform, you can now add up to 3 names to your profile by following these steps:

Should you decide this isn’t for you at a later date, you can simply log in and remove the name(s) and CC email address(es).

If you have any questions or issues adding these email addresses, please contact us at koshlongweb@gmail.com
