Description

[David Boswell]

Please create an account for Paul Booker (copied) on blog.mozilla.com.  I would like to give him access to the about:mozilla blog Wordpress admin.  

I tried adding him through the Wordpress admin, but it seems to only give me the ability to add existing users.  Maybe I missed the tool that let's me create a new user or maybe this is tied in to LDAP and can only pull users from there?

If you need additional information form me or Paul for this, please let us know.

Pinging again.  Now that the All Hands is behind us, will there be a chance to take a look at giving Paul access to our Wordpress install?  Thanks.

blog.m.o authentication is tied to LDAP. I currently see one entry for Paul Booker in LDAP, but with a different email address (paulbooker at a...t.com).
Paul, can you confirm that you are the owner of that account?

Yes i am the owner of that email address and i have a password for the LDAP account against that email address.
