AskWoody PlusFebruary 26, 2019 at 12:05 pm #333133I am able to log in successfully, and have been able to do so all along.
Certainly I add my hardy thanks to Woody and the crew for their efforts. I think that the results are well worth the effort!!!!! My only problem is that the e-mailed newsletter remains “missing in action.” Perhaps someday it will all get sorted out.

AskWoody PlusFebruary 26, 2019 at 5:51 pm #333584Not so much trouble logging in – but in spite of my real name appearing at top of my profile, log-in ONLY works with the email address.
So this is the advised “test post”; wonder what will be shown as user name.
Thanks, Woody, for your support over decades (I started with reading the ubdergriund guides …) BRgds ChristianChristian Denke

ManagerFebruary 27, 2019 at 2:04 am #333924Unfortunately Christian, you haven’t followed the instructions about creating an account without your email address, which was automatically created when you subscription from WSL was imported, as mentioned in this week’s newsletter. We shouldn’t have permitted you to post using this account, which we can fix up when you create yourself a new account.
Just because you can log on to the site here doesn’t mean you have a “proper” AskWoody account. If your account name is also your email address, I strongly recommend that you change it. Shoot me mail at Customer Support.
The UserName and General Rules (the Lounge Rules) page has information about account names.
So create yourself a genuine AskWoody account (click the link when you’re logged out!), email customersupport@askwoody.com advising your new account name, then we can get your subscription transferred, and when this generated account is trashed, we can transfer your content to the new account too.

In your case, it’s very, very easy. Just drop me a line at CustomerSupport@AskWoody.com.
