> The new TayLUG website is now officially up as it is now transferred to the
> new server. A big heartfelt thanks to Scott McGurk for hosting it. In order
> to prevent site vandalism and most importantly to prevent being continuously
> spammed, a problem that some wikis have, there will be no anonymous logins
> or account creation. I will create the accounts, the advantage being that
> there will be no restrictions on account holders i.e. They will have full
> access, editing & creation on both wiki & blog and generally have the run of
> the place. So it is basically keeping the bad guys out whilst letting TayLUG
> members do whatever they want.
>
> For account creation all you have to do is send an email to me (from a valid
> TayLUG email address) asking an account to be created giving me your
> preferred user name. I will create the account and a random password
> generated by the wiki will be emailed to you, when you click on the link in
> the email just login where you will be prompted for a new password and that
> is it. If you want to change your password again later all you do is click
> on the special page link in the toolbox and the change password link is
> there under users & rights. When you are logged in, to get to your user page
> just click on your user name in the top right hand menu and if you want to
> add it to the members page just use the same wiki syntax that I have used
> (nothing in my page yet I will get round to it later). There is a rich text
> editor that can be disabled on login if preferred, go to preferences > Misc
>> tick – start rich editor disabled. I have included an online wiki syntax
> help under the edit help button. Even if some people have little wiki
> experience this could be a good learning opportunity for practising on their
> user page, give it a try.
>
> I will create a blog account under the same user name and email a random
> generated password with instructions on how to get into the blog admin panel
> for changing your password, posting etc.
>
> I will be at the meeting tonight, so I will be available if anyone has any
> questions about the wiki and blog.
