 |
|
It seems some articles in the Knowledge Base are a bit out of date and need to be updated.
Below are several points I have found. Please feel free to add more points if needed.
1. VSP to RDP Exchange Rate

| KB wrote: | What are RDP?
RDP stands for Rainy Day Points. It is represented by a little blue medallion, RDP . These are backup points, if you ever run out of PBPP, these count towards your hosting plan. They are each worth 1 PBPP during the update, and unlike PBPP, they don't disappear (get converted to VSP) at the end of each month. Because of this, they're harder to get. You can buy 1 RDP for 10 VSP using the [ Exchange ] option. You may also have the opportunity to win or earn RDP during various auctions or sales on the forum. You cannot donate RDP. |
(bolded by me)
Currently 1 RDP = 5 VSP.
2. PHP 5 minor version

| KB wrote: | | How do I use PHP5.1, PHP6, or PHP4-compat instead of PHP4? |
Currently PHP 5.2 is supported.
Probably PHP5.1 should be replaced with PHP5.x or just PHP5 to avoid repeating editing.
3. Email login.

When logging into webmail or checking your email via POP3/IMAP use your full email address as your username.
Login: user@domain.com |

It doesn't work for me, but the plain username does. I am on Aesir.

That works for me and I am on Asgard, but that's the past when I was using POP3 email accounts.
It may be only happening to you or accounts on Aesir.

Thanks for your response.
I have just check SMTP out - it also requires my username only instead of the whole email address. It seems like Aesir has a bit different settings from Asgard, but the difference doesn't reflected in KB articles.
Well, the next point.
4. Open Installer
There are several articles in KB (An Overview Of The Open Installer, What scripts does the Open Installer install?, probably more), but Open Installer is unavailable during last monthes. Adding a small note to these articles might be a good idea.

The KB articles should be updated with the edits and such. The Open Installer articles have been hidden until they are updated with OI v2.1 information when it is done.
The email articles should be much clearer about the email address as the username now.
