Why does the Website shut down ?
The Members Website, members.enex.news, is more than eight years old. It is based on the open-source framework Drupal. After several upgrades over the years, the current version will reach end-of-life in December. Several modules and plugins have already been removed, and security concerns are increasing, particularly in the era of Artificial Intelligence.
The website was created when our distribution technology, Newslink, was at the core of our News Exchange. At the time, Newslink did not include a web portal, as it was a fully hardware-based system. This has now changed with NXP, our new core distribution platform, which is currently being aligned with the Members Website and will offer most of its features in the upcoming 2.0 release.
The Members Website has always been a satellite system alongside the main distribution platform. With NXP 2.0, the web portal will become part of the same platform as the distribution system itself. Content management capabilities will also migrate from an older standalone system, creating a fully integrated platform that optimizes the speed and efficiency of content delivery.
Can I transfer my account?
Many ENEX partner users already have an account on the current version of NXP. Unfortunately, Drupal accounts from the Members Website cannot be transferred to NXP, as the two systems are fundamentally different.
We strongly recommend that you do not wait until the last minute and instead apply for an NXP account within the next few weeks to ensure a smooth transition.
Your credentials will initially be created on the current NXP 1.0 platform, allowing you to start using the system immediately. These accounts will then be automatically migrated to NXP 2.0.
To simplify the process, we have created a dedicated onboarding form with partially automated processing to assist our team during the transition. You can access the NXP onboarding form here on our support page:

Will NXP 2.0 offer the same features as the Members Website?
Our goal is to achieve feature parity between the Members Website and NXP 2.0, including long-term content availability spanning five to six years.
A directory (phonebook) feature and an alternative to the Intercom Service Chat are also planned. You will not miss any essential functionality.
Can I register shared accounts on NXP ?
Shared accounts can be registered, although we do not recommend them. Please be aware of the associated risks.
These risks include:
- Password resets that can log out an entire team.
- Security concerns, as credentials cannot easily be revoked for individual users.
- Loss of access control when employees leave a company while retaining shared credentials.
We strongly recommend creating individual user accounts wherever possible. This reduces security risks and minimizes the likelihood of broader disruptions when accessing the platform.
Please note that NXP requires two-factor authentication (2FA) using a mobile authenticator application. If you choose to use a shared account, ensure that the original QR code is securely stored so that additional colleagues can be onboarded in the future. We are unable to regenerate these QR codes once they have been issued and we would need to reset the account.
