Welcome
Welcome to the WCONLINE 8 online manual. This manual is designed to provide details about every feature and option within the program, as well as additional instructions, suggestions and examples.
While WCONLINE was always programmed and designed with an eye toward usability and ease-of-use, the program does have thousands of configuration options and settings. In order to find information about a specific option, we first recommend hovering over any question icon that appear next to the option within WCONLINE itself. If you need additional help, browse or search the manual for the specific question, area, control panel, or option that you’re interested in. You’ll most likely find examples, instructions, and suggestions about moving forward.
Also consider reviewing our Frequently Asked Questions, as we’ve designed those to answer the most common inquiries that we receive, including:
- how to set up for your new scheduling period;
- how to set up a finals week schedule;
- how to set up group appointments for specific topics;
- and, how to easily add new administrators.
Of course, since support is always included, always feel free to contact us if we can help.
