OpenSUSE Forum vs. Wiki Login

English Applications
1

Hi All,

Anyone else notice that if you go to www.opensuse.org, click on
the ‘Discover it’ link, click on the ‘Create an account or log in’ link in
the top right, Log in (to the openSUSE wiki), then click on the ‘Forums’
link on the left, you’re taken to these forums but not logged in?
Additionally, when I click on the ‘Register/Login’ link (again in the top
right) I’m taken to the rather bizarre url of
(http://forums.opensuse.org//) yes, two slashes at the end and nothing
happens?

Happened on 11.1 KDE 3.5 with both firefox 3.5.4 and Konqueror (whatever the
hell version of konqueror kde 3.5 used) and on 11.2 using firefox 3.5.5.

I know, I know, what a convoluted way to get to the forums but sometimes
(depending on how many I’ve had in a given night) I accidentally click on
log on before making my way to the forums then I have to close the browser
and start over.

Of course this doesn’t happen with the NNTP interface :slight_smile:

Yes, and it’s the same for when you go to the buildservice page and login there. When you then click on forum, you are not logged in and also it does not allow you to when you try. To fix it, I always must go back to the builservice place, logout there and come back here so I can login into the forum

too bad you didn’t post to
“Forum Usage Support & Information Questions on using forum software
and/or requesting information about the forums” at
http forums.opensuse.org/forum-usage-support-information/
