crowthercm Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Hello, My application was recently accepted, but I am unable to login with the login/password combo provided to me in the email. I've used the retrieve password function as well on the dmoz site and the password emailed to me was indeed the one I was using. Is there something that I'm missing (i.e. time delay before activation takes place?). Thanks, Chris
bobrat Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 There was a problem about a day ago, that seemed to affect a number of new editors. I though it had been fixed by now. Give it another try and report if it works or not.
crowthercm Posted May 14, 2004 Author Posted May 14, 2004 Hi bobrat, It's not working for me atm, I'm going to hit the sack and try again tomorrow. Where would I submit the problem if it hasn't been fixed by then? Cheers & Gnight Chris
bobrat Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Post it here, and more people will be awake that can answer.
paultemp99 Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Hi there. I've exactly the same problem as crowthercm. My new editor login is 'paulg99'. FYI when I tried the resend pw link yesterday my username wasn't recognised. It is now, but provides the same one I've been using without sucess thus far. Thanks in advance. Paul
Meta cmic Posted May 14, 2004 Meta Posted May 14, 2004 paultemp99: it should work now, please try again. crowthercm: What's your editor name, please? dmoz blog
paultemp99 Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 cmic, Thank you for your response. It's still not working for me. Is there perhaps a period of time that needs to elapse until changes become effective? Regards Paul
Meta cmic Posted May 14, 2004 Meta Posted May 14, 2004 No, something is broken, staff is notified. Thanks for your patience. dmoz blog
paultemp99 Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 cmic, Thanks for (prompt!) update. No problem. I'll check back later. Paul
crowthercm Posted May 14, 2004 Author Posted May 14, 2004 >>crowthercm: What's your editor name, please?<< Userid is "taf". Thanks, Chris
Meta cmic Posted May 14, 2004 Meta Posted May 14, 2004 Hi, Can you both try again? Maybe my magic tool worked! Thank you. dmoz blog
paultemp99 Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 cmic, Hi there once more. I'm sorry to report that I still can't log in. Regards Paul
dunos Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Ah ha! I applied on Thursday morning (BST) to become an editor and was accepted on Friday afternoon (BST). I couldn't login either so I just assumed that something was out of sync. I tried again this morning but still no joy. That was when I tried the Staff Feedback Form. I guess since it isn't just me then eventually it will get fixed The system knows that I have an account because: The lost password form sends me my password. When I tried the reinstatement form it told me that my account was currently active. However I have noticed that my username is not as yet attached to the category that I asked to edit. Username: dunos Thanks, Dan.
crowthercm Posted May 15, 2004 Author Posted May 15, 2004 Hi, Can you both try again? Maybe my magic tool worked! Thank you. Hiya Thanks for trying but it's still a no-go on my account as well (taf). Chris
Meta cmic Posted May 15, 2004 Meta Posted May 15, 2004 However I have noticed that my username is not as yet attached to the category that I asked to edit. dunos, could you try again? Sometimes the magic tool works, sometimes it doesn't. I'm sorry for taf and paulg99! staff is notified. Thanks for your patience. dmoz blog
dunos Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 dunos, could you try again? Sometimes the magic tool works, sometimes it doesn't. Nope, still no magic happening here :/ Thank you for trying
aok Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 New editor - can't login Got my confirmation email congratulating me. Can't login. Even tried asking for my password again - and I am using the one that was sent to me. Any one help? AOK
brmehlman Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Try now. Please post again if it still doesn't work.
Podsed21 Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Same thing here... The same thing happened to me. I was accepted earlier today and cannot log-in. When I apply for lost password it correctly goes to my email account and is the one I tried using. My username is podsednik21. Thank you.
V E R T Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 I'm also having difficulties logging in (user: jeff02). I don't know if resetting the password would work, however, if someone could please do so, I'd appreciate it. Much thanks!
brmehlman Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 I've given it a try for podsednik21 and jeff02. Please post again if either of those accounts still doesn't work.
Podsed21 Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 Still Not Working Still not working, but thank you for your time and effort.
V E R T Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 I've given it a try for podsednik21 and jeff02. Please post again if either of those accounts still doesn't work. Doesn't work for me, but thanks for trying.
crowthercm Posted May 16, 2004 Author Posted May 16, 2004 Still not working, but thank you for your time and effort. Likewise still for taf.
