THE NEW ROTARY.ORG

You may have noticed that Rotary International has a NEW website. To make best use of the new site you might consider using these guidelines to maximize your experience.

Registration and sign-in tips

Before you visit

What browser should I use?
Use a modern browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Internet Explorer 9 or 10 to visit and register for the site. We highly recommend you upgrade your existing browser or install a new one from these choices. The site is not optimized for IE8 and older browsers. Why? We invested in optimizing for the mobile and tablet experience, instead of aging browsers such as IE8 that are being phased out. If you are utilizing Windows XP, you will not be able to upgrade beyond IE8; in that case, we encourage you to download Chrome or Firefox for free.

What is “compatibility view”?
Compatibility view is a setting for Internet Explorer. If you are using Internet Explorer 9 or 10
and you receive a compatibility view warning message on our site, you may need to change your global compatibility view settings. In IE, go to Tools > Compatibility View Settings, remove Rotary.org from “Websites you’ve added to Compatibility View” and uncheck “Display all websites in Compatibility View.”

Registering for the site

Who should register?
Everyone needs to register for the new Rotary.org.  Existing MAP users can re-register with their MAP user ID. Why? We’ve improved security and role flexibility on the new site but along with that we need everyone to create a new account or re-register for the site.
