Website New Look

Welcome to the new City Gates Academy website. To login use the My CGA/Enter link. The upgrade project has reached a few important milestones by: 1) Upgrading the core software which runs our site (Drupal). This steps paves the way to new features and better tools to maintain the site.

Student email help

Help with student mail. This information is for students using mail accounts provided by cgade.org. You have 2 options for getting you mail using a web interface. All require you to put in your full email address ( for example: t.student@cgade.org ALL LOWER CASE) and your email password. Remember, your email password is different from your website password. Your email password was sent to your parents in a student info email. If you need another copy, use the contact tab to request account support.

How student can login for the first time

There still seems to be much confusion among students and their parents about how to get on for the first time. I am sorry for being unclear. Let me try again and make it very simple.

Catch up quickly with "My unread"

Want to take the shortest shortcut to see whats new at CGADE.ORG? After you login, you will find a "My unread" link in the block on the left with your name on it. Follow this link will give you a page with 3 tabs. My unread - is everything in your organic groups (i.e. Class groups) that you have not looked at. Once your read an item, it will no longer show on this page. Recent posts is just what's new on the whole site in reverse chron order. My Recent - contains all the recent items from your organic groups, regardless of wheater you read them.

Access Denied When Two Browsers are Installed

If you get and access denied error message after logging in the toe site, then following a link, check to make sure the paged is opening in the same web browser as the one you logged in on. In the (perhaps rare) case where you have two browsers installed, it is possble that you are using the one which is not the "default". Since your default browser is the one to open a new link and the browsers do not share cookies, you will get the denied error because the second browser session doe not "know" you have logged in.

Getting Started on the City Gates Website

On your first visit to CGADE.ORG, here are some suggestions to "get your feet wet".

Reading all the recent posts - one stop shopping

The CGADE development team received some feedback that people were annoyed (or inconvenienced) after receiving a new content notification containing multiple items. I think the issue was that people were flipping between the email and the website in order to read the new posts. There is a much simpler way.... You should know by now that when you get a new content notice, some itemswill only be visible after you login. If you click on a link for private content and are not already logged in to cgade.org , you will received an "access denied "message. Once you do login, you will see the page.

You must allow cookies from CGADE to login.

In your internet browser and any other security programs you are running, you must permit cookies from cgade.org in order to login.  The reason for this is because by logging in you are establishing a secure connection of sorts. When you are log off it is safe to delete the CGADE cookies. Personally I believe in living as "cookie free" as possible.
