[OKDXA] Website Problems and Changes

[n5djr at arrl.net]

OKDXA Members.. Thank you for your patience these past couple of days. 
As everyone was aware we had a logging in problem with the website. This 
has been fixed! I was not able able to get the old membership plugin to 
work.. So I have upgraded to a new one! You will notice some differences 
now when you log in..

With the new membership plugin there is a new way of logging in. When 
you go to the site.. under OXDXA Members in the menu, you will see 
Members Login. Or the URL for it:

http://www.k5eok.org/okdxa/login/

You can still use the old URL to login as well:

http://www.k5eok.org/okdxa/wp-admin

You will notice that I removed Members List and Meetings from the public 
menu.. you will have to login in now in order for those menu items to 
appear.  When you login you are directed to your account page. It shows 
your profile along with other items.. Some of these may be changing? but 
just wanted you to be aware.  Another thing that you will notice.. is on 
the main menu.. there is a Members tab now once you login.  It has all 
the members pages under it and I added a Logout function to the menu as 
well..

Also you will notice that the website has a newer look to it.. I was 
going to wait to talk to everyone at the HamFest about changing the 
look.. but since we were unable to get together I figured I would just 
do it..

I am still in the process of working on all the pages so it is not 
completed yet.. but im in desperate need of pictures from our members. I 
need pictures of Antennas, Equipment.. DXing type of images that I can 
use for background photos...  If you look at the Frontpage or the About 
Us page.. you will see the Full Page backgrounds that I need the images 
for..  I was also thinking about adding a Shack Page.. so if you have 
any Ham Shack pictures that you would like to share with the other 
members? I will take those too? Please send all pictures directly to me 
and not the list.. dave at rossbachs.com

If I can get the images that I need.. I should have it completed by the 
end of the next week...  I would like your input tho.. I am looking for 
new ideas or things that you would like to see added to the website?? 
propagation? greyline maps? DX spotting? etc?? skys the limit? so any 
ideas or welcome??  I am also open to all criticism.. so if there is 
something that you dont like.. or want back from the old website.. 
please let me know?

Stay tuned.. there will be more to come..

Thanks again for your patience.. and Happy Easter to everyone!!
