Membership Login Instructions

New membership website! Update your member record, renew your membership or join MAPAPA. Click here to go to the site.

Login Instructions:

The website is up to date with all currently ACTIVE (paid in full to date) members, PENDING members (2007 members who have not renewed yet) and LAPSED members (2006 members who have not renewed) Since password are not assigned normally by the site administrator, most of you will need to establish your password when you first login to the website. Here is how you do it.

FIRST: Enter the name www.mapapa.shuttlepod.org and open it.

SECOND: Click on “Forgot Password” It is on the top right side of the site.

THIRD: You should be taken to a new page that says: “Reset password. Please enter your e-mail and we will e-mail you instructions on how to reset your password.” The system will ask for your email address so that it can send you instruction on how to change your password. Use the e-mail address you gave to MAPAPA when you became a member.

FOURTH: Open the email that arrives from our membership website. It will look similar to this. Your information and specific instructions important to you alone will appear in the text of the email.

Hello [Your Name will Appear Here],

A request was made to recover a lost password for this e-mail address at http://www.MAPAPA.shuttlepod.org.

To choose new password go to: [This will have a hotlink to where you need to navigate to on the mapapa membership website to change your password. It is specific to your login]. (if the link does not open - please copy-paste the link into the address line of your browser).

If you did not request a new password at http://www.MAPAPA.shuttlepod.org, you may safely disregard this e-mail.

Many thanks, Mid-Atlantic Plein Air Painters Association

FIFTH: Click on the hotlink in the e-mail. It will take you to the website and a special password creation page. Enter a password of your choice that you will remember. It is totally secure. The password is not shared or known by the system administrators. If you lose your password, go through the steps above and reset it. Don’t contact the system administrator if you lost your password. None of them will be able to reset it for you. That is a security measure built into the system.

SIXTH: Login using your email and the new password that you created. This will unlock the membership features so that you can see areas that are exclusive to members only. Please Note: Many members have Earthlink and other related accounts that block outside email access. If you know a member with this type of account and have email access yourself to them, please pass this email on to those you know.

Thank you and enjoy the website.
