Contrib Forum Problem
« on: March 20, 2006, 07:38:01 AM »
I am having a problem with the forum, every time I login the posts that I have already read still show up as a new post.  So when I click on 'View posts since last visit' I get 14 pages of posts most of them I have already seen.  Anyone else have this problem or is it only me?

The solution is to use the login option of the phpBB itself and not the login option in the panel on the top (if I rememeber correctly).

Here you will find the phpBB login screen for the Contribs forum.
