Thread: News & Community Login?
WWW team, Apparently we now need to use our community login to submit news now. When did that happen? In any case, I can't remember what I used for community login, and there isn't any way for me to retreive my login. Help? And can we get an e-mail back system for the community login, if we're going to expect people to use it? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco

Magnus, > There is one: http://www.postgresql.org/community/lostpwd In that case, that needs to be linked from the login screen. It's not, currently.

JD, > You mean on the left hand side in the navigation? Not on the login screen you reach from News, it's not. To get there currently you have to: Submit News --> Read about Community Login --> Scroll down to the left --> Lost Password *not* exactly intuitive. -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco

That is a good point hey -www on the submit news page: http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/login?p=about/submitnews We have the following wording: Accessing this resource requires a community login. If you don't have one, you can read about it here. Perhaps a better wording would be: Accessing this resouce requires a community login. If you don't have one, or you have lost your password, please click here. Joshua D. Drake > Joshua D.

Err, no, because that would defeat the whole purpose of requiring a login (ie. eliminating insane amounts of robot spam),or, if your suggesting an emaiL address, that would require us to reformat the text into an article which would likelybe as time consuming. It's not like it's hard to sign up. /D /D

It's not like it's hard to sign up. Yeah I would agree that an email would probably be a bad idea, but certainly making it more clear on the login page what to do if you have lost your password isn't a bad idea? Joshua D.

The easier it is for someone to find the source, the more likely they are to submit a patch. (Of course, Josh B. has no excuse, but still...) -- Decibel!, aka Jim C.
