Hi folks, chiming in here to let you know that we now have a dedicated Monitor My Watershed forum! You can find it in the dropdown options under Forums in the main menu. I’ve moved this topic over; it should not affect the existing conversation in any way but should make it more discoverable when members are looking for help with MonitorMW.

Hi @richardkallen. Take a look at the Getting Started With the Mayfly Data Logger page for links to lots of resources, as well as links to Amazon for purchasing boards and kits. The items are currently out of stock on Amazon but we’ll be replenishing them so keep an eye on those Amazon pages.

@dartmouthwsn Thanks for the offer, Dave! We’re definitely interested and would really appreciate it if you would share information in a blog post here on EnviroDIY. Please email me at webmaster@stroudcenter.org for details.

Thanks, Matt. This was reported on GitHub earlier today and then appeared to clear. I’ve added your report to the GitHub issue.

Community websites with open registration are a constant target of spammers. EnviroDIY.org has extensive measures in place to deter them (we blocked over 100 spam registrations just in the last week) but it’s an arms race and spammers develop new tactics in response to these measures.

Unfortunately, on Monday morning someone registered with a clean Gmail account and quickly posted comments on multiple blog and forum posts. I blocked and deleted the account as soon as I saw the activity and reported it to our anti-spam blacklist.

I apologize for any inconvenience and will continue to look for new ways of blocking spammers. Feel free to email me at webmaster@stroudcenter.org with any questions or concerns.

@charlesbrown Glad to hear you’ve made progress! We’re always looking for guest bloggers to share their projects and provide tips/tricks/tutorials to help others. Please email me at webmaster@stroudcenter.org if you’re interested.

Webmaster chiming in about the uploads issue. It should be possible to upload .ino and .txt files now. Unfortunately, it looks like .ini is not a mime type I can allow to be uploaded to the media library.

@charlesbrown, can you please try to upload your .ino again?

Hi Matt,
I just checked and this issue was reported for multiple sites (including Coldwatermorse) in September and confirmed in October. GitHub is the best way to get Monitor My Watershed issues in front of the development team. If you have a GitHub account, feel free to add to the issue thread. Thanks!

[Heather Brooks]

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, unfortunately the problem appears to be reoccurring at what appear to be random intervals. Our web host is monitoring the logs to try and pinpoint the problem. I’m sorry for the inconvenience and I hope that we’ll be able to resolve the issue today.

[Heather Brooks]

I believe the issue is resolved. If you encounter a “page not found” error, please clear your cache or open a new/incognito browser window to make sure you’re not viewing a cached version of the website.

If you clear your cache and still get the error message, please email webmaster@stroudcenter.org so I can get more details from you. Thanks for your patience!
