OpenWetWare has migrated to a new server!

User Migration

All users have been logged out and their passwords expired. In order to continue using OpenWetWare, you must:

  1. Log into your account using your old password
    • If you forgot your old password, use the password reset button
    • If your old email doesn't work anymore, contact us
  2. Set a new password
  3. Confirm your email address
    • On your preferences page, go to User profile -> Email options -> Email Confirmation
    • Check your spam folder! Our server is new and does not yet have an established reputation. You can help by marking our messages as "not spam". Thank you.

Things Ongoing

Some content may appear broken for a few days, as we fix pages with unused parser hooks and raw html.

It will take some time for searches and categories to work again, as those need to be re-indexed.

Disabled Features

The following features are no longer supported:

  • de-wikified pages: these subdomains will redirect to their source pages
  • private wikis: you will need to move your data, either to a public wiki page or somewhere else

Details

The old server was marked read-only (no edits allowed) on Friday, September 22, 2017 and the new server was made public on Saturday, September 23, 2017.
