Please share if you experience any problems logging in to the forum.
My problem is that I have to login twice, I.E I have to enter my login details twice before I gain normal access to the forum.

Hi, Yeah, when the forum last changed locations, I noticed that the login prompt on the right status bar was broken (would flash multiple selections while I was trying to select how long to stay logged in).  after clicking it it would then ask me to log in again in a dedicated login screen.

So, I found that by clicking on the login link directly under the "open-source-energy.org - Efficient & Renewable Energy Production Research" title, that it would send me to the dedicated login screen (only need to login once). I figured that it was because I was using  an old browser, and the new forum had outpaced it.

Hope this helps someone.

Awesome :thumbsup:
This is the only way to "only" have to login once, but whatever, as long as it works right?

Anyone else having this problem?

By the way, bookmarking that very login link is not a very good idea by the looks of it, if I follow that route it NEVER let's me login, so the "proper" way to go is to open the open source energy home page, press the login link directly below the top banner and then enter the login details, just the way Ken describes it.
