Can I send files and images in messages?

Yes! You can upload files, screenshots, and images directly in your messages. Click the attachment icon in the message composer to select files from your device.

How do I create an expert profile?

Go to your profile settings and select Create Expert Profile. Fill in your professional information, skills, experience, and portfolio links. This makes you searchable by other users looking for help.

What happens to my messages and files?

Messages and files are automatically deleted after 24 hours for privacy protection. Your account information, profile, and group memberships are retained. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.

I'm not receiving verification codes. What should I do?

Check your spam/junk folder first. Verification codes expire after 10 minutes. If you still don't receive the code, try requesting a new one or contact support at support@excelaccessexpert.com.

Can I use the add-in offline?

The add-in requires an internet connection to function. You need to be online to send messages, join groups, and access community features.
