Website Reorganization

• /chat is now NPL Online Chat
• /cons are now at Conventions
• / is now Puzzles (the old index)

• /krewe/ is now Member Basics
• /krewe/enigma is now Downloading the Enigma
• /krewe/gots is now Graffiti on the Sphinx
• /krewe/webhow.php is now NPL Web Sites and Email Services
• /krewe/misc has moved to misc
• /krewe/noms/* are now in Nom Stories

• /wordlists are now at start
• the grepdict pages are now Dictionary Grep/Search and Dictionary Grep/Search - Advanced
• /krewe/bases/* are now at Base Finding Tools

• Users can setup their own account and password using the [login] or [profile] buttons at the bottom of the screen. This removes the need for a password change screen from /secure/krewe/password.php.
• The treasurer no longer needs to add everyone's account; instead, we use a “group” of Krewe to permit access to The Members Only Area.

Some guidelines?

• If you needed a password for it on the old website, it is almost certainly under The Members Only Area now.
• If it was some sort of solving tool, its now under Solving Tools of the NPL with the notable exception of —OBSOLETE—: Brutus: The Cryptogram Solver.

1. Edit the page you're trying to move, and “cut” all the content out.
2. Open a (second?) browser chosing where you want it to go.
3. At the bottom, select Create this page, and pastethe content from the old page.
4. Save the New Page.
5. If you are using a second browser, now you can safely save the “empty” old page to delete it.
6. Check the report at Missing & Orphaned Pages to see if you broke links.
   • Click on the link to the page you moved
   • In the title bar, click on the “backlinks” link ie. [[webmaster:moved_items]] above.
   • You'll get a list of all the pages that point to the OLD page and you want to point to the NEW location.
   • Open each listed page in a new tab or window1) (or you may need to come back to this list often)
   • Edit the page and alter the links to move the IDs to the new location.

Note: There is a plugin that should allow us to eliminate almost all of these steps if kite@puzzlers.org can get thing upgraded to the current Wiki Version.
