    Solved Setting up: Account activation - no email sent :-(

    Post by ninja_butler January 15th 2013, 12:41 pm

    Can anyone tell me how to activate the forum I created? My email address is correct but no email has been sent for me to activate. I cannot use the "forgot password" option because I don't even have a user name yet.

    I registered here in the users forum on the same email address and the email arrived in about 5 minutes, but the the activation email for my forum should have arrived 2 hours ago. It is not in the spam folder. Help please? Sad

    Hello,

    You shouldn't have to wait for an activation email...

    What's your forum's URL ?

    Hi Leeloo, thanks for the quick reply.

    url is: http://chatterboxers.forumotion.co.uk

    I'm wondering if the name got flagged or something because it's too close to an existing forum?

    Woo.. I think it's working. :-D

    For some reason using "admin" as my user name failed for the first three tries but now it seems to be letting me in. Lets see how it goes! Thank you.
