Navigation ManualLast Updated:January 10th, 2023
Introduction

Welcome to the Witch's Circle! This is going to be your guide throughout the entire site. So, I bet you are asking yourself, "where do I start? ".Well, this guide will tell you everything you need to know so you can get a start or continue your journey throughout life's toughest moments.
The Portal

The Portal is one of the main places on the site! You can find the latest posts, forum statistics, helpful links, and other important information about the site. Also includes a moon widget so you can keep up with what stage the moon is currently in, plus the current date.

Covens

Covens is a Wiccan term for Groups! This is where you can find other people who are on a similar path as you or share similar interests. You can learn so many unique and interesting skills or anything that can help you grow as a person!
To get there using this site, you can use the link I provided OR you can take a look at the navigation bar above this post and look for the term "covens" and it will take you to the page where you choose the group you would like to join and then click on "view information". If you like the group, you may request to join it. Also, know that you can leave the group at ANY time.

Witch's Academy
  • This is the school for all witches or witches in training. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or an expert, anyone can join and attend classes. Even if you don't practice magick or have no interest in being a Witch, you may still enroll and learn something new!
  • These classes give everyone a good opportunity to learn new things or see things in a way that they haven't before. It is another good place to start if you are not sure where to go when beginning your journey, I suggest going there. The classes and information are 100% free with no cache and no tricks. You will have the option to sign up for your classes and to decide whether you want grades or not. All your grades and information will be kept private. More information about this can be found at the Witch's Academy.
  • To find the Witch's Academy, you can either use the link (the title of this section) to navigate there, or go to the index (homepage) of the site and scroll down until you see "Witch's Academy section".
  • The Academy is split up into two sections: "Classes" and "Cauldron Cafe". The classes, section is where you will find the many different courses that this site has to offer. And each class has at least 13 -15 lessons plus lesson reviews almost every 5 lessons. There is also an extra section in each class for extra content to keep your mind active with new and more information!The Cauldron Cafe is the place for class discussion, questions, or to find your resources such as a list of herbs, crystals, terminology, and more!

The Chatbox
This doesn't apply to your path as much but it is a helpful tip when going around the site. In the toolbar at the top of the screen, there is a link that says "Chatbox". If you click on it, the Chatbox will pop up, all you have to do it is hit "join the chatbox" and you can start chatting with anybody who is also online in the chatbox! If you were to click on the chatbox title ("Chatbox"), you will be sent to another window, without leaving the site, which has the entire chatbox in one tab. The same rules apply to the chatbox as it does with the website. No harassment in any way possible. Just be respectful and everything will run smoothly.

If there is anything wrong with the chat area itself, please let us know and we will take care of it as soon as possible.

The Point System


This is just for fun purposes. You will gain "points"  depending on your activity around the site. This field can be found in your profile and is also located under your profile picture in the messages when posting in topics. These points can be used in forums stores when opened. You can buy account benefits OR you can purchase a little pet, charm, or badge for your profile! No actual money is being used. This is only for entertainment and fun purposes.

Below is a list of ways you can earn points/coins to use in the store.

1. Posting in the forums: 1 point per message, 3 points per subject.
2. Adding somebody as a friend: 2 points per friend added
3. Profile messaging (visitor messages): 2 points per message.
4. Reporting a mistake or bug on the site: 5 points per report
5. Giving a suggestion for the site: 5 points per suggestion
* If contests or verified games are held on the site, many points may be given as an award.


Book of Shadows

The Book of Shadows section is where everyone can have access to and view spells and rituals to practice. Anyone can post spells if they want, or you can just browse, comment, and try some of them out.
There is also a place for anyone who would like to share their own personal Book of Shadows or if you would like to create your own digital B.O.S by using our site, you can create a new topic and get started!


The Footer

The footer, at the bottom of the site, on every page, contains some very helpful and useful links for everyone to use! It is split up into different sections. The first column has rules, contacting, and important and helpful site information for the members to look back upon and guide you along your journey with us! The next section is for those who are into tarot readings and predictions. You can request a reading or look at your horoscope and see what your future holds! The next section holds an extra link for the Chatbox, important newbies guides and information, and a Gallery so you can show off any artwork or pictures! You can also rate or comment on other users's pictures! All of these links are to help make everyone's life easier on the site and to make it more interesting and fun!


The Purple Heart - Topics
When you post on a specific topic, there is a purple heart that pops up Navigation/GUIDE Partic10. This indicates that you have posted on that topic, or, in other words, participated in this discussion/topic.


Sidebar Features

On every page of the site, there are icons on the side of the screen, and in this section of your guide, I will explain what each of those means and for what reason they are presented there!
First, the white icon, on the left side of the screen, with a paintbrush icon on the front. Navigation/GUIDE Screen46 When you click on this icon, you can change the color of the site background for the whole website! A selection of backgrounds will pop up and you can scroll through to find the one you like the most. Occasionally, this feature is edited to add more and a better selection for everyone to enjoy including holiday/seasonal selections and others that may make the site look good! After clicking, in order to close the feature, you can click anywhere on the site, or click the icon again to close the background sidebar.

Next, is the accessibility feature. Navigation/GUIDE Screen47
When this icon is clicked, a ton of settings will pop up depending on various "disabilities" or just preferences. You can change the size of the font on the entire website, increase the size of the cursor, change the contrast colors, and so much more! Just like the previous feature, after clicking, in order to close this feature, either click somewhere on the site or click the feature icon once more to close this sidebar when finished!

FInally, the side bar feature. This one has a link icon on the front of it. Navigation/GUIDE Screen45. This one is used as a "user panel" with many helpful information or support links for easy access! For this one, once clicked, you will notice two sections: the Wiccan Materials section and the Forum Support section. This one is a little bit different. Once clicked, the way to close it would be to click on the icon once more, or, of course, you can click on a link which will redirect you to the link's destination. Either way, will close this feature for you!


The Staff Team & Applications
There is a page that I have designed which shows all staff positions, their tasks, who is on which team, the description and more! The link to this page is accessible in quite a few spots around the site. You can view it in my signature, the User Center (located on the footer of the site) and probably some other topics around the site. If you wanna join us, feel free to shoot me a private message and we will disucss any and all positions you may be interested in! The page will be linked below!
