Illian the same thing happened to me when using Google Chrome, so I entered my password and did the Captcha in Internet Explorer then relogged in on Google Chrome and there was no Captcha and I could log in fine.

I am looking into the Google Chrome issue, cannot guarantee I can fix it though.

TBH I don't understand why things are different between browsers.

Also, I do not know why the captcha doesn't work.

Try the forgot password method if you have trouble logging in.

That's odd. . . I just went through and clicked through the site, everything seems to be working fine on Chrome for me. Logged in and out a few times and never had a problem.

MMMMmmm... ya always assume I did all the basic trouble shooting for any thing before I post it here Very Happy I have been in the Help Desk industry for over 14 years >.< noting is more annoying than competent people belly aching over simple things then trying to make it look like its your own fault.

In other related news, I browsed there on my laptop using IE the same login squishy issue persisted, once I cleared the Cache and temporary internet files it cleared up, so likely what changes you made fixed the squished look.

I also found a site running the VoIP spy that will plug into the PHP with ease: http://www.drow.org/news/ it says Thumpers from Guild Launch but I have not been able to locate it at this min. I will try to find the code link for use if you still need it. It works for any given VoIP and displays on the page as you see there.

I made a vid showing the elements I am talking about. I tried to use the mouse to highlight the content as I stepped through it.

I also found an alternative frame work you may enjoy Very Happy

http://www.gantry-framework.org/ It fully supports Jommla and is used in various sites like this one:

I hope this helps in the process Very Happy

Don't use this sites login details, use the login details you used on the old oufholo.net.

One of the main reasons we left this site is that we only have access/control over basic aspects of the site and no access to the database at all, so all these posts and users are separate.

I was looking at the site a few days ago and there was the option to change the layout. Since some people seem to really like the one here, maybe make it an option.
Tried to login today but it said I have exceeded the maximum attempts and then when requesting password I am not authorised for that.
Using the Firefox 4.0 beta11
New site progress. - Page 2 Screen10
There is a little black bar at the top.
I think the new background looks great. Maybe stick an uninterrupted image of the logo at the top right with all of the forum, register, login buttons and maybe a link to the wiki when you get round to it.

It is certainly possible, but the amount of time it takes to set up a theme is intense and so multiple theme options is something for later consideration (after we have one working perfectly with all the features we want).

Sorry, I can't figure out why it's doing that.
Beadle wrote:There is a little black bar at the top.
Yea, I have been trying to figure out why and remove it, no luck yet though.

Don't quite get what you mean re:"uninterrupted image".
There is no wiki on the site yet (we are on new hosting) but that is easy to do and so I am not worrying about it yet.

The site now seems to work for me on every browser, also do we need to install this Phpbb3 thing to access the site or something?

I was too busy noticing your 'Pirate Bay' and 'Kickass torrents' bookmarks hehe.
I have a Harry Potter header for Firefox and I've forgotten why I even picked it or how long ago I picked it. Dual Sith

Oh, you registered on an empty forum, when I imported the old user database again it would have overwritten the new user you created.

Since you can't remember your login details from the old oufholo.net then I will set a password for you and PM it to you at these forums Illian.

Can do the same for anyone else that is having trouble as well BTW.

I'm sorry I left all that stuff for you to handle Jacan. The situation got out of hand in the States with my parents, so I took my daughter to Colorado to visit some other family. Anyway, we got back a week ago, but between the time change, having to go back to work, and dealing with my daughter who had since become a daddy's girl, my ass is wound up so tight when I fart only dogs can hear it (love that quote).

Anyway, PM me or email me what I can do to help again.

New site changed? avatars are now right justified?
What I meant before was when it was with the cool flame background, the OUF crest was somewhat obscured by all the cool graphics, I was thinking it would be nice to have just the straight crest somewhere on the top of the page like among the forum and home links but on the emptier side.

No worries Udu, I have learnt very fast while getting things where they are now. Currently perfecting my html5 skills building the roster/history/charter and rank pages while I wait for Kev who is working on a header banner.

Avatar justification is a simple tweak and had not been given any thought yet. I prefer it on the left as well and when I get around to it will just set it left since it is what we are all used to.

I am after testers, just want you to go to the site and log in and then PM me there all the menu (navigation bar) links you can see including the dropdown ones and also what sections of the forum you can see.

If you can't log in then PM me here and I will create a temporary password for you then PM it back to you here.
