Getting access

How to sign in, and who to ask when you can't.

Wohu Studio staff

Sign in at /login with the studio passphrase. That grants the internal audience, which can read everything on this site — the handbook and every client project.

The session lasts 30 days and is carried in a signed, HTTP-only cookie. Signing in again anywhere refreshes it.

Clients

Each client has their own space covering only their project. Sign in at /login with the passphrase your Wohu contact gave you — the same form staff use, and it works out which project you are from the phrase itself.

You will land on your project. Everything outside it is hidden from your navigation, and typing its URL returns 404.

Your contact issues the passphrase; it is not self-service, and there is no sign-up form. If you need it rotated — someone left, or it has been forwarded somewhere it shouldn't have been — ask, and it can be changed in a minute.

A document you are not cleared to read returns 404, exactly as a document that doesn't exist would. That is deliberate — a "forbidden" response would confirm the page is real and leak the shape of other clients' work.

So a 404 means one of two things, and the page can't tell you which:

  • The link is wrong or the page has moved.
  • The page exists but isn't part of your audience.

Either way, ask your Wohu contact rather than guessing at URLs.

Something looks wrong

If a page is out of date, contradicts what you were told, or documents behaviour the site no longer has, say so — these pages are maintained by hand and drift is the normal failure mode. Corrections are welcome and cheap.
