Re: Can't create community Wiki pages

 

Hi simon,

one thing I recently came across was that my LP password was not eight
characters including at least one capital letter and a number. So whilst lp
would allow you on with 'password' you would need 'Passw0rd' for it to work
across the system.

Regards.

Phill.
