Hello Everyone,
The Forums are now officially up, the bug has been fixed, and everyone should be able to access the forum correctly now.  ENJOY!

Also, if you are having issues, please comment here.  The top issue so far seems to be cache related.  Here is a great article on how to clear your cache using pretty much every browser known to man.  http://www.deakin.edu.au/itl/dso/guides/qg-clear-cache-cookies-pc-mac.html  It may be a bit old, but should still work for everyone!

Flash, I'm still having trouble, too.  It seems I have to clear my cache and resart my computor every time before I can access the forum, and even then, sometimes it takes multiple log ins before I access the whole forum.  I'm also having trouble with the forms on the forum, such as posting.  I keep getting "invalid session, please resubmit the form" message and sometimes it takes me several tries, and other times it doesn't work at all and it bounces me back to "members only / must log in". 


I tried clicking the little box and not clicking the little box, I tried jumping to the forum from different pages, I tried holdiing the button down longer, I tried double clicking, I tried clicking while standing on one foot and singing Rocky Racoon, but still I keep having this problem with the forum.


I think it's getting better, but please keep working your magic!


Also, can you fix Kndjstn's profile page?  When I click on her, I get a "error, this profile closed" message, so I haven't been able to invite her to be a friend.


And if you still have time after all that, don't forget to regulate the tides and cure the common cold!

I am having trouble staying logged in when going from the blogs, etc. to the forum. I was so excited to finally figure out how to get to the old forum stuff, but when I tried to create a new topic, it kept asking for my log in. I'll try the clear cache thing. I am also so happy for all your work, FlashGordon, so don't give up on us!

Well, that's just plain weird!  Last time I logged into the forum, I did like you said and I didn't click on the "remember me" box, and now the forum remembers me!  I've gone to the forum several times in the past 24 hours, and I've had full access every time and I have not had to log in again. 


Btw, I clicked the remember me box on this site, so I stay logged in here, but it must be a seperate log in cookie from teh forum because I notice when other members are logged on here, the don't show up on the forum index as logged in there, as well. 


I would almost think that the forum had a bad remember me/login cookie, but I don't see how that would have accounted for the randomness of it throwing me out during casual browsing.  I suspect the truth is that you were up all night, fixing things! 


Thanks Flash!  You're my hero - I hope you can get some sleep now!

I think these issues may have something to do with the remmeber login info box... try NOT clicking that button.. or something.. I hate this phpBB forum!!

the second time, I cleared everything BUT the cookies because I didn't want to lose all my log-in information for my accounts at other websites again.  So now, I just went back and cleared the cookies and did the restart again, and went through log in again, and after three or four tries at login I was finally able to access the forum.  Just for fun, I left the page for a moment to see what would happen when I came back, and sure enough I couldn't get back in.  Btw, I always click the little "remeber me" box when I log in.  Even on the old scuttlebutt forum I had to do that, or I couldn't get access.  Anyway,it took about six or seven rounds of logging in before I could get access to the full forum index again.  So maybe clearing the cache isn't enough - maybe it is going to take a lot of persistance and patience, too.  Now I'm beginning to take it personal - it's like the forum is taunting me.  I can almost hear it now... it's chanting 'naa naa, nah-naa, naa!'

Hi Annie,
Try clearing your cookies, then restarting your browser, that may help!

Well, it worked for a little while!  I was trying to add my wesite address to my new profile on the forum, when I got the old "restricted to members/must log in" pop-up again.  So I log in again, and my user name is listed at the bottom as logged in, but I still can't get access to the full forum.  So I go back  and do the whole "clear the cache thing and restart" again, but this time, the magic didn't happen! 


Flash, I'm sorry I keep bugging you about this, but I'm a total idiot when it comes to computor stuff! 


It's frustrating, but it's not the end of the world.
