How to get your password for the new boards?

If you follow this link: http://128.241.205.103/vbulletin/member.php

it will bring you to the password dialogue box. Once you receive your e-mail with the new password, cut and paste it to the password box (in the lower right corner of the screen). Then, once logged in successfully, you can edit your profile and put a simple, easy to remember, password...

Where the heck is the login box??

On the bottom right of the screen - you'll see the login/password boxes...

And you better have your seat belts fastened!
WOW! Is this board fast or what?
Great John....Keep up the good works and get well quickly!

thanks man....

I like it John , but how do I keep from having to login everytime?

Bruce, I just noticed that every time back to the board, I have to login to post anything. That will get old fast, what's up with that John? I remember I used to login in to the old board and never logged out, so each time back I just posted at will.

Slip & GS - try it now and see if it's better - if it is, I'll set it up for everyone

:rolleyes:

YES! I LOVE that smiley! we definately needed one of them! HA!HA!

anyway as I am totally "duh" on the computer to begin with, boy did I have one heck of a time trying to figure this out! Have to laugh at myself I guess. Not to mention if I had read this post BEFORE trying to read all the others that I missed while on vacation I would have saved myself a LOT of time.....oh well.....

Nope, still got the name/password screen before I got the post reply screen. Not the end of the world, but you know how us old farts are, we like things just right ;)

GS - "clear out your cookies" (not toss 'em) and try it again...

That worked, but it's a pain to delete my cookies. Everytime, I try to select all and then delete, I get a message stating the index can't be deleted blah, blah, blah. And of course your board's cookie doesn't sit up and wave at me, so I just selected each one and deleted them all, figuring it might be time for a clean slate anyway.

Hey, it worked. First try, too.

John, I think I prefer logging in as "Mike P" rather than "Mike_P_aka_"DJ"" for some odd reason :D

This is what I have to do. I put in my password , then when it says returning you to screen , it says click here if you can't wait (or something like that) if i click that in time , everything works fine but if i wait , it doesn't show the reply screen , it comes back up with the enter username and password screen again and again? Maybe this means something to help you out John.

That's strange, it worked this afternoon, but this time back I had to enter my name/password to post. Oh well, like I said it ain't the end of the world.

Bob & Mike - try it again, I keep finding more cookie switches...

Jeff H - consider yerself promoted...

Just got back from the Cape, and all I can say about this new board is.......WOW!

Good work, John, but where do I edit my profile?

Never mind.....I found it. :)

John,
For some reason I need to log in every time I click out. Am I loosing my cookies?:confused:

Since I just did this....I should be able to help.

1. Close your browser
2. Find your cookies on your hard drive and delete the cookie for this message board. (They are usually in a temp folder)
3. Reopen your browser and come to this site
4. Log on
5. Go to edit profile and make sure the automatic log on box is checked yes.

You should then be all set, at least that is what worked for me.

:)

Fishpart,

You can also go into "user cp" (next to the bass) and edit options (pretty much the same thing)

Steve in Mass - howya doin?

It's working for the moment, because I didn't have to login, although I haven't clicked submit reply yet:( .

Not bad, John. I'll start a new thread on my (mis)adventures on the Cape.

Steve, thanks I think it worked.

I guess those cookie switches worked cause I can now post from work without any problem. I'm going to try that stuff Steve described to see if I can post without entering the password all the time.

Did you select: "Automatically login when you return to the site? (uses cookies)" ??

John,
Thanks for asking, the little guy is doing great. He's eating and growing like a mad man; making up for that premature escape. He just got the A-OK from the doctor this week.
And he hasn't really cut into the fishing time either; he's sleeping when I'm fishing, so I don't feel guilty going.

God to hear Mark, good to hear...

Slipknot hath shown me the smileys!!!!!! Watch out!! YEE-HA!http://forums.evilnet.net/ubb/smilies/blazer-gray.gif
