Yup, you need to create new accounts. We'll probably be getting rid of the new account funcationality since there isn't any reason for someone that isn't going to edit the website to have an account. That could change in the future but for now it's not worth dealing with the headaches caused by the a-holes trying to spam the site.

I'll be doing a presentation next month on how things are done on the new site and after that we can decide who has access to what.

Nicely done Brian.  I don't seem to be able to log in though. And if I
tell it I forgot my password then when I give it my email address it
says invalid token.  Do we need to create a new account on the new server?

        We've had a new (to us) server donated to PLUG.  This is now in
        place and with it we have a new website with a brand new unique
        template.

        All these changes should give us a server that can spit out web
        pages significantly faster than the old server and allow it to
        survive a simple crawl from a search engine without being
        brought to it's knees.

        We have also moved to a new CMS that should be much easier for
        people to learn and therefore be easier for someone to donate
        their time to help with the website.

        Please look over the website and let me know if you see any
        glaring problems with it.

        Many thanks go to Alan Dayley who donated the previous server.
          I can't remember when exactly when it was put into service but
        we received 7+ years of service out of it.  And although it's
        still a perfectly functional machine, it's only a PIII 800 with
        512Mb of ram.  It just couldn't keep up with the world of 2011
        anymore.

        Also many thanks go to der.hans for donating the new server,
        Jill R for doing the initial load of the server.

        And lastly, you can throw thanks or eggs whatever you feel
        appropriate at me, Brian Cluff for the website redesign.
          (Please try to be nice though... throw the eggs softly)

        Now go check it out.

        PS If anyone would have use for the old PLUG webserver, it's a
        2U rack mount HP server with 4 18gig SCSI drives, hardware RAID
        controller in addition to the specs listed previously.  It's
        yours free for the taking.
