If your old username and password doesn't work, click "forgot my password" (or something like that) under the sign-in fields.
Type in your username (not email address) and click proceed.
Go to your email account where, shortly, an email should appear from the forum. Click the link at bottom.
Enter and re-enter your new password, when you proceed you might hit a "500 server error". Don't worry.
Retype www.ukweatherworld.co.uk in your browser address bar and follow the forum sign-up link, enter your profile name/username and new password.
It worked for me, hope it works for everyone!

A big thanks to Dave Clarke who has spent the last few nights -literally- getting this up & running..
Its worth saying that this version is only v3.1.4 and there are a lot of upgrades we can install in the coming weeks & months. They are now up to version 3.2.2 with further added functionality, bells & whistles. What makes this good is that its a living forum that's still being developed, our old forum was gradually becoming defunct as all development work stopped on it some years ago .. so we really had to take the plunge and finally do the changeover.

Thanks, about 75 hours so far put in!!!
Most people should be able to login. The conversion software from MegaBBS to IP Board we paid for included a custom script for converting the various parts - posts, members, forums etc
but the part to convert members was missing a file that converts all of your group membership permissions over, so if you were in more than 1 group, i.e Frouk and a member and registered to post in climate, it only put you down on the new forum
as a Frouk, and therefore as you weren't a member, couldn't sign in.
I've now edited all these groups manually, so you should be able to access.

Ok, I seemed to of figured a work around for members who can't login. It's to do with a crypt key.
If you email me your username, or if you're not sure, you're email, and you give me a new password for you, I can reset your account. I will endeavour to respond to all within an hour or so.

Have changed the cookie domain as there was an error with logins, so you will have to login again to accept the new cookie.
