Login Issues Resolved!
The login issues that we were experiencing earlier have been resolved! Please report any further issues to the Help Desk, helpdesk@uoregon.edu.
Thank you for your patience today! Happy first day of Fall Term!
Login Issues
We are currently experiencing login issues that are redirecting users to http://blogs.uoregon.edu/test/2012/09/12/test-password/ instead of the Dashboard for your site.
We are diligently working to get this issue resolved. In the meantime, the work around is as follows:
- Login with your DuckID and password
- You will be redirected to http://blogs.uoregon.edu/test/2012/09/12/test-password/
- To get to your Dashboard, hover your mouse over My Sites, and click on your site name.
- This will redirect you to your sites’s Dashboard
Thank you for your patience!
