How can I log in and how many passwords do I need to remember?

PBwiki has three different systems, each of which has unique login information. You may use different email addresses and passwords to login to these systems.

Wiki Login:

This is the traditional invite key (previously known as the wiki password). This key lets you access a specific wiki.

To log in via Wiki Login, go to http://YourWikiName.pbwiki.com (don't forget to replace "YourWikiName" with the name of your actual wiki) and enter the invite key.

PBwiki Account Login:

A PBwiki Account (also referred to as My PBwiki) is an account that provides a central point for you to manage logging in to wikis that you own or visit. Rather than having to remember the individual passwords to different wikis, your PBwiki Account gives you one login to access any wikis where you're an authorized user.

To log in via PBwiki Account Login, go to https://my.pbwiki.com or http://pbwiki.com and enter your email address and password.

You can also go to the box on a wiki's login page that says "You may also log in with to your PBwiki Account to proceed" and log in.

If you tie all of your wikis to your PBwiki Account, you should no longer have to remember your individual Wiki logins.

In addition, PBwikis are not required to offer invite keys (previously known as wiki passwords). In that case, PBwiki Account Login is the only way for a user to access such a wiki.

PBwiki Help Login:

PBwiki uses Satisfaction for its help system (http://getsatisfaction.com/pbwiki). This "People Powered Customer Service" lets you ask your questions and get responses from both the community as well as PBwiki employees, all the while building up a community-drive knowledgebase of questions and answers.

Right now, the PBwiki Help Login to access Satisfaction is separate from both Wiki Login and PBwiki Account Login, so you will need to create an account on Satisfaction to ask your question. You can click the "Sign up" link at the top of the page, or simply ask a question, and then create your account when prompted by the Satisfaction system.

In the future, we would like to tie your Satisfaction login to your PBwiki Account so that you'll be able to access everything with one login and password.
