A few "How to's" for a novice to this forum

How does one contact the moderators/administrators? Many FAQs say to do so, but how?

How does one send a PM to a user? I see no button or other mechanism on a user's profile. OK, I found it on one of the User Control Panel (UCP) tabs. I now see email and PM icons in the profile boxes next to posts. They were not there before, IIRC.

I see how to add attachments below.

There may/probably will be other questions to come as they manifest themselves.

Charles,
Some functions are restricted, until a user has a few posts on board. This is an anti-span function. After just a few (I don't know the number, but it isn't many) you will have access to everything.

Thanks,

I see that some functions that were not available have become so, now that I have been active for a little while.
