HacksPostMigrationUserDetails
On Nov 25, 2014 - Hacks.mozilla.org was migrated off of a standalone blog and onto the Blog.mozilla.org platform. As a result of this work, there are some planned changed to logins that will impact most of the users. This page covers in detail what is required for each user type to get back up and running.
If your Hacks Email is the SAME as your Mozilla LDAP email address, you can now use LDAP to login. Your
login will be:
- Username: <ldap email>
- Password: <ldap password>
Important: if you're using a Mozilla email as your Wordpress email, but it is NOT your LDAP email, you will not be using LDAP login. See the next section for your login details...
During the hacks migration, we were not able to migrate user password because they were encrypted in the
database (with a different salt string that the blog platform we migrated to). As a result, all passwords
need to be reset. The following steps outline how to do this:
User password reset:
- Navigate to the Wordpress admin page: https://hacks.mozilla.org/wp-admin/
- Select "Lost your password?"
- Enter your Username or E-mail and click [Get New Password]
Note: password resets are NOT required if you're using your LDAP credentials to login.
