Class Members Now Licensing IP Subscribers Contributors
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010I have entered into the subscriber database of the WordPress software I am using for our class website the names of all those who gave me their e-mail addresses on Thursday last. Those individuals should have received e-mails from the system welcoming them as subscribers contributors and providing them with their user names (for this class, that means First Name followed by Last Name) and their password. Feel free to change the password. You can log in using the login button on the first page (the page you land at when you enter http://www.kalodner.com/ip/. Enter your user name and your password. If you look at the top of your screen, you will see the word “admin.” If you select it, you will be taken to a page on which you can change any of the existing data except your user name – and that includes changing your initial password to any password you prefer.
If you have not received a welcoming letter but you did put your name and e-mail address on the paper circulated on Thursday, that means I did not enter your e-mail address correctly. Please e-mail me at hkalodner@law.wnec.edu and I will correct the e-mail address in the WordPress subscriber list. If you did not put your name and e-mail address on that sign-up sheet, you will have another opportunity to do that during Tuesday’s class.
