If internet access has been restricted by your administrators, please ensure these domains are added to the firewall to enable full access to content on the platform:

.english360.com (this serves the html)

.amazonaws.com (for user images and content)

.cloudfront.net (for site image and styles)

.dictionary.cambridge.org/ (serves the Cambridge Online Dictionary)

Since Vocalus does not control the Amazon cloud or how it works, there may be other domains that Amazon decide to use to serve up the content (especially outside the US) so this list may change without warning at any time.

To receive confirmation and warnings for actions you carry out on the platform, please ensure you enable pop-ups on your browser. If you are using a pop-up blocker i.e. a 3rd party blocker or browser add-ons, you will not receive confirmation warnings for any actions and you will not be able to access dictionary definitions.
