Click on any of the sub-categories or questions below to read relevant responses.
Membership: What is the value of signing up as a Member?
Once you sign up there will be many options available to you, and more will be added in the future. We have outlined just a few of them below.
Do I have to become a Member to be a Host or have access to posters or other marketing materials?
Yes. It is also necessary to become a Member in order toplace an order on our store.
Will I get spam from signing up with you?
We hate spam as much as you do and we want your experience with our company to be a positive one - that’s why we never sell or trade our member information. You will only receive emails from us in accordance with our Privacy Policy (which is typically only if you have requested information fromus, we are following up on an order you have placed or a seminar you have registered for, if you’ve signed up for our monthly newsletter, or if we make achange to our member accounts that you would need to be notified about).
I’ve lost my login name or password, what do I do?
Please start by using the lost password feature just below our login menu in the left column. If this is not enough help, please contact our office via our email form and we will get back to your shortly.
How do I know if I have Adobe Reader?
Most new computers will have this program already installed. If you aren’t sure, youcan also click to open your Start icon (on PC computers) and then browse through the Programs. If you have been sent files saved as a pdf and you could open them, you most likely already have it installed.
I’m trying to download the online resources (posters, weekly outlines, first chapter of the book, etc.), but it doesn’t seem to be working. How can I get what I need?
First, have you registered as a member? Only our members have download privileges. Second, are you logged in as a member when you aretrying to download? You must be logged in to have access to the downloadable files.
Note: You’ll know you’re logged in if you see a welcome message with your name in the green member box in the left column.
If you still can’t access our downloads, email our office with
We’ll do our best to make certain you get the resources you need.
I’ve downloaded the online resources to my computer but now can’t find them, where did they go?
You’ve probably just placed them in a folder you didn’t intend to and they are most likely somewhere buried on your hard drive.
You can either:
The files I downloaded don’t look quite right when they print. What do I do?
The most common printing issue is that the graphic doesn’t fill the entire page as they do on the screen. This is often because your printer’s default settings shrink pdf pages unless you tell it do do otherwise.
If this is the problem you are having, check the printer parameters available in the printer dialog box that appears when you select“Print” from the file menu in adobe reader. Look for a selection item that says something like “fit to page” or “scale to fit page” – make sure this box is left UNCHECKED or UNSELECTED – because you want the page to print out normally (at 100%) as it is designed. When you have identified this item and left it unselected, try printing again and the art should fill the entire page.
I don’t have a color printer, what do I do?
Everything we provide can be printed in black and white. So don’t worry if you don’t have a color printer.
If you would like them in color, you can order them from our office (printing, shipping and handling charges apply) or most quick printshops (like Kinko’s) will be able to help you print if you bring the file in on a disk or CD.
Do you screen or certify Hosts?
No. Anyone is eligible to be a host. Each Circle is basically like just a peer-organized book group. We only review HostingRegistrations/Listings for appropriate content before they are placed on our website. We ask that all Hosts (and Members of Circles) follow the guidelines found on pages 24-25 of More Love, More Joy! (Book) and in the Circle Guidelines found at the bottom of the HOST A CIRCLE page under the Community section of this site.
Note: Please exercise caution when meeting strangers, particularly in a private place. If for whatever reasons you don’t feel comfortable or safe after talking to a Host on the phone or going to a meeting, please honor that! More Love, More Joy! Or its publisher, Discovery Bay Books will not be held liable for any damages relating to peer-hosted groups.
I don’t see any Circles near my town on your Find a Circlelist, does this mean there aren’t any More Love, More Joy! Circles near me?
No, it only means that any organized Circles near youhaven’t listed their meeting on our website. Feel free to check other message boards like Craigslist.org for MLMJ Circles, local bulletin boards, churches, community centers, etc. If you still can’t find a group, we hope you might consider starting your own Circle or sharing the Hosting responsibilities with others in your group. Everything you need to get started can be found on our site. How soon will the Circle I have registered be posted on the website?
We usually get new listings posted within 3-4 business days. Sometimes this can take up to a week. We will email you when your listing hasbeen added to our site. We ask that each Host check your posted listing to confirm its accuracy.
If I sign up to Host a Circle, can other members see my personal profile & address?
No. Only your name, contact telephone, and the information you provided on the Hosting portion of your account profile will be posted online. Your other personal information given to become a member, such as your address, will not be made publicly available.
Note: (We do not post street numbers of any Circle location address for your security.) The only information that will be posted online will be the information contained in the listings on the Find a Circle page. You may also see our Privacy Policy for more details.
I need to change some information about a Circle I’ve already posted. How do I do this? Login as a member and then
Click on the MY ACCOUNT in the membership menu in the left column.
You can then change the information for your Circle and we will be notified to update it accordingly. (Please note, the changes you make will not be displayed instantaneously, they have to be approved and updated by our office, which usually happens within 3 business days.)
I want to host more than one Circle at the same time. Can I do this? Yes, however our current software is not set up for you to input the second or third Circle into your account automatically. AFTER you enter your first Circle, contact our office by email by clicking on this link.
Be sure to include the following information about your(additional) Circles:
After reviewing your email, we will then add your additional Circles to our Upcoming Circles listing on the Find a Circle page. I’ve already Hosted a Circle that was posted on your site and now I want to list a new group. Can I just change the details in my Host profile to show the new dates and times?
Yes, of course! Just login to your account in the MEMBERLOGIN menu on the left column and click on MY ACCOUNT after you have logged in. Change your old Circle Hosting information to your new information (please indicate in the comments field that this is a new listing) and then click Update. We will then be notified of your new event and will post it once it hasbeen reviewed by our staff.
How long will my Circle posting be listed online?
We typically leave postings “live” until a Circle hascompleted an 8-week program. If your Circle meets biweekly or monthly (and thisis noted in the comments field, we will leave your Circle posted until thecompletion date.)
How do I delete a Circle I have posted?
We will automatically pull outdated listings after yourCircle ends. If you want to delete a current posting because you have decidednot to have the group after all, you’ll need to email our office with yourrequest FROM the email you have on file with us in your member profile. (Ifyour email has changed, please just update your profile). Please be sure toinclude your name and member name as well.
