Login Error

[smychiu]

Hi,

I just recently installed my forum and whenever someone (even the admin) tries to login, we get an error

Sorry, you are out of login chances. Please come back and try again later.

Any way to fix this? Thanks

Try deleting your browser's cache/cookies.

I notice that I can adjust my own cookies so that it isnt a problem, but many of my users are having this issue as well.

Hi there!

To what value is the number of login attempts set?

[smychiu]

I've been trying to look for this number! Where can I find it!

Hmm, I can't tell right now but you can do a search at the index page of the ACP.

Try the Admin button, then somewhere in the top-right corner there's a search form.

Might be worth you going to Admin>Server settings and renaming the cookie, then.

Oh, of course, that function also exists

Try that first before going on patrol in your ACP for the other setting.

Ok, i think that problem is fixed.

another problem im having now is that whenever someone tries to register for my forum, they get this message,


Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.

I haven't touched anything related to registration, any suggestions of what I should look for to solve this issue?
