Joining HOPS Accounts

Did you know..... If you work at more than one organisation that uses HOPS it is no longer necessary for you to remember separate usernames and passwords for each one! Using New HOPS (www.hops.org.uk), you can now have just one username and password for all your HOPS accounts. (This does not affect the data belonging to each individual railway in any way.) From New HOPS, log in with the username you want to KEEP, then select the 'person' icon in the top right hand corner and 'My HOPS Account'. Then click 'Link Another Account' and enter the username and password that you want to LOSE. The accounts will be joined and you'll be notified by email when this has taken place. From then on you'll only have one username and password for all your HOPS accounts! This does not affect the data belonging to each individual railway in any way. So availability, etc, still has to be entered for each railway.

HOPS is continually being developed and updated. Sometimes the screen shots in these help files might lag behind the most up-to-date views of the screens. Generally, however, the functionality of the page will be the same, albeit with a slightly different format or layout.
