[edit] List Creation and Configuration
[edit] List Management
[edit] Creating a Useful List Description
Each list has a "homepage" in the form of an address in the form of:
http://lists.occupy.net/lists/info/<your-list-name>
Whether someone subscribes to a list via an email command, or visits the site to click the subscribe button, this is an opportunity to give them important information:
- Purpose
- Guidelines or policies
- History (Perhaps the list grew out of a meeting or project)
- Related Lists or sites

[edit] User Management
[edit] Blacklisting Users and Domains
Administrators can prevent individual addresses or entire domains from sending messages to a list by blacklisting them. To blacklist a user, log in with an admin profile, go to "manage group", to "blacklist" and add the email address or domain you would like to restrict from posting to the list.
[edit] Adding Users
Administrators can add a user by logging in as an admin going to the List > Manage Group > Manage Subscribers and adding their name where it says "Add a Single Subscriber". Fill out their email address and then click "add" to subscribe them or "send invitation" to email them a request to join the list.
To add multiple people at one time, go to the List > Manage Group > Manage Subscribers > Import, add an email address on each line and then either click "add" to subscribe everyone on the list or "send invitation" to email them a request to join the list.
[edit] Subscribe Form Code for Embedding on Other Sites
You can add a list-subscription form to your own page/site by using the following HTML code.
<form method="post" action="http://lists.occupy.net/lists" class="bold_label">
<fieldset>
<label for="email">Your email address (optionally followed
by a space and your name): </label><br>
<input type="text" size="30" name="email"><br>
<input type="hidden" value="list-name" name="list">
<input type="hidden" value="subrequest" name="action">
<input type="hidden" value="1" name="via_subrequest">
<input type="submit" value="submit" name="action_subrequest"
class="MainMenuLinks">
</fieldset>
</form>
Replace list-name with the name of the list you just created.
