Not authorised to access Media Portal Forum Posting tips (1 Viewer)

[Javelin]

Hi guys, I am new to Media Portal and thought I would read up on some of the forum rules before posting. When I click the link on the Support page to go to Media Portal Forum Posting tips I get a notice advising I am not authorised to access the resource. Is this a broken link or am I missing something.

Thanks

i get this when accessing that link

You are not authorized to view this resource.
You need to login.

i then try to use the same user/pass for the forum, and it says invalid username or password.

Same here.

funny, if i log-out then i get the same message.

even more weird is that this page is set to be available for the public. no special rights required

High has to take a look since he is the main admin of the homepage/portal.
:sorry:

thats correct.

the user db/software from the homepage/portal is:

• not the same as for the forums
• hosted on a different server (homepage server is in germany, forum in the USA)

so you have to register @ both places.

i know that it would be nicer to only have to register once.
which would be possible with the commercial vbulletin/Joomla bridge plugin. but then everything (files) have to be hosted on the same server. (just to clarify that )
