Hi again :D

I'd made a BOINC team individually on each project I am on. Right now though I just made a BOINC wide team of the same name. But when I leave the team from any of the projects and search for my team name Illogicopedia I only get the old team as results, not the BOINC wide team. I'm guessing it just might be because the changes havent propagated yet. Anyways my question is once the team becomes available on those sites how can I "transfer" all the credits earned in the old teams to the new (BOINC wide) team?

Here are the links to the old team in various projects:
SETI@home
Leiden Classical
Malariacontrol.net
Asteroids@home
LHC Sixtrack

And here's the site wide team link:
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/teams/team_display.php?teamid=4526

Thanks in advance for any help!

From http://boinc.berkeley.edu/teams/:

Teams and accounts that don't already exist on that project are added. If the team exists and is owned by you (i.e. its founder has the same email address), then its URL, description etc. are updated. It can take up to 48 hours for these updates to occur.

I finished an LHC workunit and it was validated right now. The global team page still lists members with credit as 0.

So it's just a propagation issue?

Thank you, I was getting paranoid.

I created my BOINC-wide team back when you could still do it yourself, and I was getting messages from the various projects for a good week or more afterward.

It's been 4 days already and still no change to the individual team pages. What could be wrong?

It's possible the projects don't import already existing teams. Or that they've just imported your BOINC Wide Team (BWT) as a new team. First check that there's only one instance of your team at the various projects.

Then ask at the projects forums if they import already existing teams, or import teams from BWT at all.

There was a problem with the cron jobs running on the new BOINC server, which caused a lot of back-ground processes not to run, including the exporting of BWT teams to projects asking for updates.

The cron job for the export is now running, it can again take 24 to 48 hours before you see changes, depending of course on how often projects get the update(s) in.
