Getting Started as an Owner
You've purchased a new RocketCAD Community and are ready to get started!
It may take up to 5 minutes for your community to be created after purchase.
Getting into the Owner Panel
The Owner Panel is going to be your primary hub for all community management. Here, you will manage your users, settings, departments and everything you need for your community! Let's find out how to access the Owner Panel.
Head to https://therocketcad.com/amc
Select Your Community
Note: At this point, it's likely just a random string of letters and numbers, but go ahead and click on it anyways!
Select "Community Manager"
You're now in the Owner Panel!
The functions of the Owner Panel are fairly self explanatory. You can navigate through the menus using the sidebar on the left. We STRONGLY RECOMMEND going through each menu option to ensure that every setting you wish to configure is properly configured before beginning to take in members to your community.
Accepting Members
Once your community has been setup, and you have gone through all settings and configured them as you wish it's now time to accept members.
Method #1: "Classic" Invite
Encourage your users to either make an account or login to their account from https://therocketcad.com/auth
