Don Jordan Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 I'm having a great deal of trouble logging on to P15-D24. Have I done something wrong? Do I need a new computer? I never realized how much I depend on the forum for information until I was unable to log on. I've gone in in a back door sort of way. Using my bookmark just isn't getting it. Quote
_shel_ny Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) GTK had problems with the site over the weekend. There was some info and instructions under feedback and announcements, but they seem to be gone. When you get to the site, and are logged in, use that as a new bookmark, or short cut.. Delete your old one that has "pairserver" in the link. Edited July 2, 2013 by shel_bizzy_48 Quote
TodFitch Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 One thing I noticed is that the domain name changed and my old bookmark lead to what looked like the current site but I could not log in. You might want to verify that your bookmark now points to http://p15-d24.com/ Quote
P15-D24 Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 As Tod noted the path to primary domain name, p15-d24.com, has changed. This should correct an ongoing issue with returning members not being automatically logged back into the site. Once you get back in be sure to update your bookmarks and delete the old one. Quote
jcmiller Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 Yeah, I finally figured this out after not being able to access the site for a day or so. I contacted pair Networks because that is what the error message says to do, but they said to contact the website administrator. Of course you can't do that when you can't get on the site! I wonder if you can set up some kind of domain forwarding or broadcast an email to the users so they know how to get back in. Quote

I wonder if you can set up some kind of domain forwarding or broadcast an email to the users so they know how to get back in. This would be a good idea if it can be done. I figured something was up since the website appeared to be down for several days. I contacted Don to find out what the deal was because I had no way to contact anyone else on the forum but him. Luckily he steered me in the right direction and all is well again. I just wonder how many others are wondering what is going on. Quote

The domain didn't change so if you type in www.p15-d24.com you end up at the forum index like usual. I will get an email out to the membership today about updating browser bookmarks. 1 Quote
Guest bewillie Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 When you try P15-D24 it also says error and you can't get on.. I got on a round about way and added to my favorites. Quote
LAKOTA169 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I had the same problem, but now I have a different one. I also got in by going to the WWW address and got here, but now I can't bookmark the site. Every time I try I try to bookmark it, I get sent to the Yahoo sign-in page (I'm with ATT/YAHOO). I sign in (even though I was already signed in) and it takes me to the Yahoo home page (not ATT). I tried a couple other pages to bookmark with the same results. So I know it's not the forums fault. I can save it to my "Favorites" Quote
randroid Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 Gents, I didn't have a lick of trouble anywhere. I wonder if that's because I use Ubuntu? -Randy Quote
Dan Hiebert Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I had two types of "trouble". One from this weekend that the site administrator resolved, (I received a message from the administrator explaining what happened and how to get around it) and one originating from the migration to "pairserver" a while back that the resolution to the weekend's problem also resolved. I could log on from my home computer, but my agency firewalled pairservers on its network, so I couldn't log on for the occasional daliance at work. Once home, I tend to stay off the computer, so I've been "falling behind". Quote
40plyrod Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I had trouble too using my bookmark and even when I googled it I couldn't get on. I finally found a link through the domain name registry. Pure fluke. Quote
Don Coatney Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I had trouble too using my bookmark and even when I googled it I couldn't get on. I finally found a link through the domain name registry. Pure fluke. The link to your 40 plymouth sedan build thread http://mopar.pairserver.com/p15d24ph_forum/index.php?/topic/30508-rust-free-40-plymouth-sedan/#entry304959 is no longer a good link. Quote
P15-D24 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 Corrected bookmark for 40 plymouth sedan build thread: http://p15-d24.com/topic/30508-rust-free-40-plymouth-sedan/#entry304959 If you have bookmark links that are broken the quick fix is to search for the entry number in the forum search, this case 304959 or edit the old URL to the new format and save an updated bookmark. For example, the old: http://mopar.pairserver.com/p15d24ph_forum/index.php?/topic/30508-rust-free-40-plymouth-sedan/#entry304959 becomes the new: http://p15-d24.com/topic/30508-rust-free-40-plymouth-sedan/#entry304959 (Red text is edited out and replaced by blue text in the URL address bar) Then re-save your bookmark.

BobT-47P15 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 Yeah.........what they were saying. Don Coatney was kind enough to give me an address that worked.....so am back in. It did take me a bit of messing with my computer to get a new shortcut/bookmark on the main screen. But that's just because I forget how to do certain things since they don't occur very often. All is now good. Quote
frankieflathead Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) I only found my way back onto the site after I stumbled upon the P15-D24 Facebook page quite by accident! Until now I didn't even know there was one! Edited July 3, 2013 by frankieflathead Quote

Until now I didn't even know there was one! FYI, On the forum index page (upper right) is the Facebook feed "Recent Facebook Activity" Quote
frankieflathead Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 Thanx. Hope I didn't sound like a whiner. Quote
P15-D24 Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 Thanx. Hope I didn't sound like a whiner. No problem and I'm looking for ways to leverage the Facebook connection. Quote
