Sadly, I have no account on which to test this, though

Hopefully future logins can be made using your old forum login/password. If not, let me know!

Edit: Seems to be so far, so good. Looks like the bug is solved.

The only thing I can do (in general) would be to reset everyone's passwords. However, there's a possibility that this might have to happen as a one-off in the future. So I'm avoiding having to do it twice

For the record, if anyone is having issues logging in, you should try the following:

1. Try logging in with both your login name and screen name (which may have been different). The screen name is the name which your posts are labelled with. The login name is the name you used to log in to the forum.

2. Try entering your login name in lower-case if it isn't already.

3. The next thing to try is the password reset link: http://knightmare.com/forum/ucp.php?mode=sendpassword which will reset your password and send the new password to your registered email address.

4. If you no longer control your registered email address, and you missed our previous requests to update your account with your current address, you'll have to request assistance at the following page: http://www.knightmare.com/contact.htm.

If anyone has any suggestion as to why their login did/did not work, I'd love to hear it. As far as I am aware, it shouldn't be a matter of randomness. There should be something specifically different for those whose logins work versus those whose logins do not work.

Like the new layout so far!

Though I too had trouble with my password not working on me...

Doubtless the theme will change at some future date once we have things up and running smoothly.

My best guess is that it has something to do with capitalisation.

2. Your post appears in yellow letters when it's "selected". Probably you clicked "show my post"?

That's possibly not as obvious as it could be. Maybe I'll see if I can highlight it in some other way

3. It's gone back to black-and-white because it's no longer selected

Am I still here? Had a bit of trouble with the old password dying on me. Still, it looks to be working...

EDIT: why's my text in bold and yellow?

EDIT AGAIN: it's gone back to non-bold and white. Is this a "feature" of the new board?

Honestly, the permissions system of phpBB is an absolute mother. It has every conceivable configuration you could possibly wish for....as long as you're willing to dig around to find it and specify it exactly how you want it.

We should really move to some old obsolete measure board system like YaBB SE.

Let me know if it works?

As soon as I answer it, I'll be sure to correct it.

This is not only far too reminiscent of the Host in Doctor Who, it's also far too cumbersome for the amount of people we'll have posting here. What happened to unmoderated posting access?

I've just spent a while upgrading the smilies and post icons too. So with a bit of luck, they'll be working properly now, without any ugly rogue white pixels.
