Solved Members can not see the main page -advice needed

Post by pdowle February 17th 2011, 8:42 am

Hi there,
I have just created (spent all day) a forum and it looks great!

Next I emailed my friends to join.... the first went to the link I provided and registered. I immediately activated their account... all going well.

Unfortunately when she logged in she could not see the front page. The only way for her to see any of the new thread topics I started to kick things off is up the top clicking unanswered topics. All that work I did uploading images and whatnot is all missing.

This is what she see's

Members can not see the main page -advice needed Thisboard-1

What am I doing wrong? I have made three forums... posted threads, created icons.... everything and its very hard for my visitors to find.

Also... the other thing. There appears no easy way to log out. Where is the log out button for people?

Thanks for help suggestions.

Oops, it requires account to check. Can you please provide me with a test account for that forum.

I am sorry... I am not sure what you mean. How do I send you a test account? Can you break it down to small steps... I am not overly computer clever. Smile

Thank you for your help!!

I have just found another thread with the same problem here... and the answer said 'you have set your permissions to admin, change that' But I am not sure where to do this.
