I signed up for the $89.50 bundle, but I am not finding where to download and print the $19.50 guide that is included in the bundle. I looked in the email and do not see a link, I looked in "My Stuff" and while there is a link to the videos there is no link to the guide.

What am I missing? Where am I supposed to look?

Hi Alice, sorry your message slipped my awareness until now.  I just talked to the designer, and he is very close to finishing the companion guide.  You will get an email as soon as it's ready for download.

Please you've got to do something to make the log-on process better.  When I visit an open browser window that has "expired" it asks me to log in again to post something or reply. So it has to send an email link and it takes the extra steps to go and get it.  then I click on it and it goes to another log in screen but NOT to the forum page where I previously was wanting to post a comment.  It is almost impossible to get back to where I was and then to try and copy the comment from the other open browser window that was "abandoned" when I went to fetch the log-in link from my email. The whole thing is a mess and I usually end up not being able to contribute to the forum sites.  Would you PLEEEEEEEEEZ make this process work better?

Using a bookmarked page doesn't always work.

My suggestion would to bookmark the main forum page like the one that I use:

Hi Toni- welcome!
If you look at the top right of the Southwest USA forum (https://permies.com/f/38/southwest-usa) , there is a button on the far right that says "New Topic." clicking that button will open a screen where you can start a new thread. Hope that is helpful!

Hi!  I am super new to this site.  I am a non-traditional student at an Ag. College in Frankfort,KY.  I’m currently studying Agribusiness/Agroforestry with an avid interest in Permaculture.  I like working with wood and I have a strong desire to learn to Cooper buckets with cedar.

As far as the sign up goes.  As soon as I received the verification email I clicked on it and it told me that it was expired only 1 minute after receiving the link.  You may find that helpful.  If there is a way that you can verify that my registration is complete or if I have more to do, please advise.  Feel free to use the email that is listed.  Thanks so much!

-Marcus

No you've not fixed them all. You said I cannot access my info I bought in good faith. This isn't good enough.

It's possible there was an issue with the verification email that was sent to you perhaps going to your spam and then this would have meant the signup process didn't complete (and hence the hiccup with connecting you with your products).  

Anyway, i've now connected your products to your permies account, so happy days  Please go to the button at the top right of the screen that has your name on it, click on it, and then click on My Stuff. You should then see links to all of your lovely content.

If you have any problems, please post in the tinkering forum, here: https://permies.com/f/11/tnk

Is a landowner, there are all kinds of problems. There is literally no way to find out how to donate land. Everything is through these threads. It is not only frustrating but it definitely looks to me like all you want is money for your classes for these people that want inherit land but yet no real way for anybody to get in contact or donate land. It seems to me to be a huge scam to these people that are paying a lot of money for classes and then they have to go out and find people that don't know them to will their land and their farm to them.
I did find one thread where there were 10 people that had land one of them had maybe four acres and it wasn't cleared. It's a big joke and a big money scam. I did want to find somebody from your program I did want to donate but after looking into it with no contact no way to contact anybody I don't want anything to do with your program it's a joke

Jausonne, Welcome to the forum!

Did you see this post?

Jeff said, "For Otis send Mike a PM, "Purple Mooseage" or Personal Message and he will walk you through things.



The classes are not just for Otis or Skip folks.  The classes are for anyone who wants to take them.  I wish they were not so far away from me as I would love the opportunity to attend some of them.

Hope I got signed up okay. The computer/internet is not my favorite communication device.
I prefer analog art, dance, music.
I do enjoy your permie news and info. Thanks for your good work       L
