I have to get into the board through Google. Is this a problem with my computer only or have others experienced it? Peter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peter This e-mail received by Board members last week explains: Dear ...., Since the migration of the web site and forum to the new server, we have been running two identical copies of the Mander Organs forum - both being updated simultaneously - while "teething problems" were resolved. Today we are going to turn off the old one, so the only one that will work is this one: http://www.mander-organs.com/discussion/index.php Hope this makes sense.

Vox Humana 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 You can access the new site from the link on Mander Organs' home page. You need to reset your bookmark. I have no idea whether this is normal computer behaviour, but at first I found that every time I accessed the forum from my "favourites" menu I was having to log in anew at every visit. Even though I always had the "remember me" box ticked on the log-in page, my computer was not retaining the details. Then I decided to try bookmarking the front page again after I had logged in and now everything seems fine. I mention this because I have a vague recollection that someone once mentioned they were having the same problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're a genius - mine was doing the same - 'gave it the 'Vox' treatment and all is well! AJJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need to create another bookmark for this forum. Moderator, Mander Organs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
