What do I need this for?
Registering with idigbio.org will provide you with accounts to three iDigBio web services.
1. idigbio.org home page blog features managed with Drupal CMS. 2 idigbio.org/wiki for wiki content 3. idigbio.org/portal : our specimen portal which at the moment provides limited account services but will be expanded upon.
Does this mean I have three logins?
No, you actually have one login which is managed by a private openID service used to manage authentication with all three services.
How does this work?
Go to www.idigbio.org/login/accounts/new to register with idigbio.org. Once your account is created you will be sent an email to activate it. This login will be all you need to access all our services (Drupal, Wiki and Portal).
Note: Each service has its own account management interface and should be used accordingly to manage those service's features.
