Editing Fogbugz welcome page
I'd like to add some stuff to the Fogbugz Welcome page [1], but I can't work out how to do it. Is a permissions issue maybe hiding something from my page (see attached) ? [1] https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W41 cheers -ben
I changed permissions on this wiki. Does it solves the problem? On 28 nov. 2013, at 13:16, btc@openinworld.com wrote:

I do not know if this is really a good thing to allow anyone to edit the pages, moreover when one can have an account without any check :S I added Ben as an editor, and I think I will revert the write access grant to everyone Ben On 28 Nov 2013, at 13:28, Camille Teruel <camille.teruel@gmail.com> wrote:

I don't believe that malicious contributors are watching out for messing around in wiki pages. If ever there is one, we'll know who he is and we'll be able to revert the page. IMO people should be able to collaborate, that's why wikis exist after all.

I can tell you that the gimp wiki had such issue with loads of spam. Now its open only for people who ask for an account there. But you can try it and if it fails then you could give access only to people asking here in the list. On Thu, Nov 28, 2013 at 3:41 PM, Benjamin < Benjamin.VanRyseghem.Pharo@gmail.com> wrote:

But then it was never about strange people, it was about professional coders making good money coding bots that can spam any account. Its a nasty business, but business non the less. What is long over is the creation of malicious software just for the fun of it. Nowdays it has a very specific purpose, to make more money for people that have no hesitation to use any means possible to do so.

I've added some concise info on what worked for me for user registration to the issue tracker. Rather than clutter up the account list with a test-user, could someone yet to register try out the three steps... https://pharo.fogbugz.com/ cheers -ben

They look OK I actually registered yesterday just before this thread started However I was making detailed notes and these are the 3 steps I used. (My notes are not complimentary about this process. It is convoluted compared with other sites but as we now have written notes rather than a video - that I had to change browsers to play I think I would have been less annoyed just following the text) Ben thanks for making it much more obvious what to do, -- Mark

You are welcome. However I wish to emphasize that the video very worthwhile watching to understand the whole process, it is just that sometimes people may be focused specifically on getting a logon quickly.
