Greetings,
I just set the system up on my home server (Win2k, access db) and seem to have a problem with the New user email verification link. When the new user gets the email to join the site and clicks on the link, it takes him back to the registration screen where he has to fill out all the same information again such as user name, email, etc. I'm not sure why or if it's just something I missed in the setup. There are no mods done yet. It just a vanilla system.
I set one up at work and have no problems with it.
Anyone else have this problem?
Is it something I missed?

Thanks for any help..

It's the URL for the forum. Same format as the one I setup at work. The only diff with the one at work is the Home URL on my home site points back to my website.
You can try it if you want:

Thanks..

Can you post an example of a link that a user gets in the email?

Your forum's address is http://65.189.191.14/mikegodwin/mgforum/ not http://www.mikegodwin.com/mgforum/.


Search is your friend

Yes, if you use Shaggy's link to the forum, you will find out that the activation link actually works (just tried it - all subsequent tries will state that the key is certainly missing).

Images, all messages, so far everything works fine using http://www.mikegodwin.com/mgforum
Just the email verification.. It's not a big deal.. It's not going to be a big forum anyway. Just for friends and family. I just thought it was strange..
Anyway.. Thanks for the help..
