How are wiki admins wanting users to create user pages? And should wiki admins place the format they want on the front page? I have been telling people in Meroe to use <b>wiki/Users:<name></b>. Is this correct?

after you log in there is a link at the top center of the page... if it is red clicking it will send you to the editor to create it with the proper name, if it is blue  the page already exists and clicking it will send you to your user page.  --[[Users:Strutter]]

(Talk copied over from the main page)

Wiki Admins
Are we ever meant to use the "LOG IN" link? After using the "LOGIN with OPENID" and confirming it, which take three minutes to log in, we still have to do it this way? What the hell, this openID is not cool! - Seba

People had a mere 2 weeks to setup this whole server. It's already quite a feat that you just can login. Have a little bit of patience and things will work just fine. Unfortunately none of the admins could be here when the tale launched. But they'll get to the issues later today. ArmEagle 00:38, 14 December 2008 (EST)
As Armeagle said, not a lot of time was available to get things up. There are some definite quirks with openid that need to get fixed but have to wait for a server admin to get back. If you follow the instructions I listed above and still have trouble logging in, come into irc and ask if anyone is around who can help. http://www.atitd.org/irc/ - Teao
The useless Log In link is now gone!

Sekhar - The wiki keeps logging me out; is it possible to extend the cookie expiration to somewhere near never, or at least >= 1 day?

I didn't know about it till I read it on the main page either but: To prevent having to go through the ordeal again, check the "Remember my login on this computer" setting in your preferences. ArmEagle 05:41, 15 December 2008 (EST)

Also, the OpenID Confirm - is there not a way to permanently cache this once you confirm once per user? Other OpenID providers allow this. Since our use-case is so specific it may be nice to hard-code the confirmation for this domain for all users such that the confirm dialog isn't ever shown.

Yes, it's a bit awkward and hopefully removed, since all consumers have to be specifically allowed by the provider. But see above remark, the wiki you keep you logged in longer. ArmEagle 05:41, 15 December 2008 (EST)

Question about user pages...

How are wiki admins wanting users to create user pages? And should wiki admins place the format they want on the front page? I have been telling people in Meroe to use wiki/Users:<name>. Is this correct? --Users:Seba

after you log in there is a link at the top center of the page... if it is red clicking it will send you to the editor to create it with the proper name, if it is blue the page already exists and clicking it will send you to your user page. --Users:Strutter
