View Full Version : Getting into the 'share your work' forum

Basically, I can't!

When it asks me for my password I enter it correctly but it still tells me I am wrong. To make sure I logged out, logged back in again using the password rather than autocomplete and got into the main forum no problem. But when I went to share your work it still told me that my password was wrong.

Heeding the warning on the password section I checked my cookie settings but everything seems in order, I allow cookies for my browser (latest firefox version).

I even tried changing my password just to make sure that everything was correct but that hasn't allowed access.

Any advice?

I'm a tech idiot, but I think I know this one.

It's not asking you for your own password, but for the SYW password, which is vista. Try that and see how it goes.

Maryn, tech idiot, really

Yes! :) Empty your browser of temporary internet files, empty cookies, then close the browser and reboot. Try logging in after that and going to the SYW forum. You should be all fixed up then. ;)

Oh! And what Maryn said, too. Make sure it's the forum password you're entering, not your own. You can find those on the main forums list page in the verbage for each one.

Just editing my first SS at the mo so should have something on it by the weekend.

Good to see other Welsh people on the board (or if not welsh at least people living in wales).
