The Email Log feature can be used by managers to see which emails have been sent out by Tapestry. This is useful if a parent or member of staff is not receiving their account activation, notification, or password reset by email, as you can see if the emails are being sent by the system or not, and have an indication if they arrived in the inbox of the recipient, were sent to an invalid address or were rejected by a spam filter. Firstly you'll need to access the Tapestry control panel. Log in on the web browser version of Tapestry, click your username at the top of the screen and select Control Panel. In the control panel you'll need to select the 'Email Log' …

There are several different ways in which you can view progress for individual children on Tapestry. The first way is by showing you the child's assessment scores for several periods side by side. This is the more visual representation of progress and doesn't take the child's actual age into account - it just shows how they have moved through the age bands and refinements. There are two different screens on Tapestry which will show you progress in this way. Another way is through the points progress scree…

It's important to keep your contact details in Tapestry up to date. The first reason to do this is so our replies to your support emails are sent to a real email address, and the second reason is to allow parents to contact you easily if they have a problem while using Tapestry. If you've not added contact details for relatives to use, or your support email is not registered to an active staff member you may see a banner like the one below in Tapestry. Click on it to be taken to the right area of the Control Panel. If you can't see a banner, you will need to access this page through the Control Panel. You can find this by clicking on your nam…
