SMF Version: SMF 1.1.3
I've just had to register again to logon to this site. I don't know what the problem is, but I'd registered using a valid username, etc. a few days ago and today couldn't get in, so I've started all over again.
Each time I tried to re- register using my old username (and/or password), I got 'An Error Has Occured' message.
And I seem to be having the same problem with my own forum (at redbackwebstudio.com / the Wimmera DiaBLOGUE), in that I can't get into the admin page. I get the error 'Password incorrect'. Any ideas out there?
Oh, and yes, I've viewed everything I can find on this site in regards to Admin, and have not found too much that is helpful in this situation! And I'm still trying to figure what a Package Manager is.
I need some fast help here, please.
Regards to all.
The password is the same one you uses to log into your forum with. If you can log into your forum, and have admin permission, you should be able to log into your admin area.
Thanks Rumbaar for your reply.
I can only logon as a forum member, not as admin. At one stage, I was able to see an Administrator (with my initials) at the bottom of the forum page, but have not seen it again. If I use these initials to logon, I'm naturally asked for a password also, but the password causes an error message.
I've downloaded the entire SMF again, and I guess will have to try again. Pretty strange!
Well you don't have two logins as per say, you have an account that has Administrator status. So if when you are logged into your account and the 'admin' button appears in your menus then you are an Administrator. Then when you click on that it should either log you straight in (if you've just logged in) or prompt for a password. Which is the same as the one you use for your 'forum member' account.
If you are still unable to login, then there must be some kind of other issue. Are you using the default theme?
