OK that happened to me a few times a long time ago.
I forget what i did or if i just came back to it at a different time and tried.
the problem is, that the email you used is probably already used.. like it most likely went through. it's just bouncing back to the home page of forumotion for some reason.
try this to see if this works.. i am not sure because you never got to activate the forum yet. oh but look in your email and email spam folder too just to see if it was sent.
then see if you can log in to utilities useing the email and pass you tried to create the forum with.
Then if nothing we will have to pass it on to typlo to try to request a tech or figure out what is happen.. but i know what you mean because this happen to be befor.. but it was like three years ago or so.. give or take.
also what sanket said.. i think i was useing IE6 on windows xp at the time it happened to me. i do remember it was on my old computer.
then also you can try switching browser.. but chances are your going to have to try it with a different email address. because i think the email you used might have went through.. just for some reason your getting directed back to the forumotion home page and not the forum.
and here is the utilities link.
https://www.forumotion.com/en/utils/So if all fails.. be sure to send me the email address you used.. not the pass word we dont need that .We would just need the emails to give to typlo for him to look and see if it was used and you have a forum that was not activated yet.. if so then he will most likely just activate the forum for you and give you the link.
But try the other stuff first.
