Helping with documentation?

[dirk_salewski]

Hello Documentation Team,

I'm still new to cmsms, but I like it very much, and I thought: "Hey, I could write things I find out into that wiki..."

Unfortunately I'm too stupid to log in 

I alway get the following message:

Login error: You have not specified a valid user name.

Hmmm, I'm quite sure that I exactly used the login name of this forum, so - what's the trick?

Greetings,

Dirk

Hmm.  Chances are that there is a bug in the bridge code.  I'll take a look into it sometime tonight and see if I can figure it out.

i just logged in with out a problem, using my original forum name, i had changed it from maksbud to mark and it won't let me use mark no problem for me. but by any chance did you change your forum name?

    mark / artist formerly known as maksbud

No, but my first guess was that it might have to do something with my underscore. Didn't want to change my name directly, though. I think I will wait for Teds investigations.

Good Night for now (00:30 here, gotta work tomorrow).

So, without researching it any...  read the last line in this:

I wonder if the problem is mediawiki or smf (my guess is mediawiki).

Deleted dirk_salewski and reopened new account and "ping" - everything works as advertised. Thank You, Ted.

No problem.

Granted, it's not the solution I really want, but it solves the problem for now.
