How do I create a AD/LDAP account for the Mattermost login? I have a account for the forum but I guess that’s not it.

I must be missing something here. I thought that all activity had been moved to Mattermost and so haven’t been following the forum. Which are we meant to use for an ordinary user?

The forum is here to stay for more durable and asynchronous conversation. We’ve only moved chat from Slack to Mattermost.

When creating a new account, select the “Email and Password” option.
