  • wiki login

    From Julian H J Loaring@21:1/5 to All on Fri Mar 25 06:36:22 2022
    Years ago, I was able to edit Tcl wiki pages using the nickname "JHJL".
    When I try to login, I am prompted for a password, but alas I cannot remember it.

    I tried raising a ticket on https://chiselapp.com/user/stevel/repository/nikit/ticket
    to no avail.

    `i tried requesting a new login https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/_session/request_login
    again no luck.

    Ideally, I would like to continue my previous JHJL nickname.

    Can anyone kindly assist me?

    Dear Julian,

    in the forelast TCL teleconference, someone reported about a bug, that a
    used nickname with a password can not be used again.

    I understood, that one should choose a new nickname and use "Sign in
    using nickname". And the captcha is offten hard for non US'errs, as the pictures are very US-like. For example, trains look quite different in
    other countries.

    Anyway, good luck,
    Harald

    Many thanks Harald,
    Alas, I have tried two new nick name requests but never receive an email. I get the message below and that is it!

    "Maintainer request is posted.
    Thank you for your maintainer request. You will receive login instructions by E-mail on address ..."

    I do agree about the captcha system - I was asked to choose motor bikes yesterday and was a moped. what to chose, what to chose!

    Yes,
    please don't try to create an account.

    Go on this page:
    https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/_login?U=https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/

    - enter a nickname at the very upper field.
    - Click "I am a human" (free translation of the German text shown to me)
    - survive the Captcha
    - press "sign in using nickname"

    Don't use the "registered user" stuff.

    Thank you,
    Harald

    and is there any way to get a new password in case you forget it ?

    Thanks, Harald. I have tried that a few times but always end up at a page requesting:
    ===
    Maintainer login
    Please enter username and password to start a maintainer session.
    ===
    I must have unwittingly been using an already taken nickname (probably mine from years ago).
    Anyway, I am in now, so thank you, Harald, for pushing me over the line; I just have to remember what I was going to do now that I am in... :)

    Hello,

    I have a (registered?) user in wiki.tcl-lang.org, but I don't remember the password

    When I try to log in into https://wiki.tcl-lang.org using "sign in" link in User menu top right in the page I go to login page:

    https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/_login?U=https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/_session

    and ask me for a password I don't remember.

    Is there any way to reset the password, change it or get a new one?

    regards
