Temporary forums test: Members will have to login to see posts

[Jason]

Temporarily, to see the forums everyone will have to login. You won't be able to view anything on the forums without logging in.

As I previously noted, I'm getting error messages over email regarding the operation of the server. The frequency of them has been increasing. In order to isolate the problem, I'm requiring logins to view the forums this as a temporary test.

I DO NOT plan on leaving it this way. I'm just doing it for a couple of days. It will be returned to its normal operation after that.

I appreciate your patience.




Update: The test has ended. It provided some information but doesn't help me solve the problem unfortunately.

If we have to log in, how come when I checked the bottom of the main page, it said we had BusterE and 31 guests viewing? How did they get in, all right now? 6:07 pm Wed.

Just curious.

They didn't get in. They're simply viewing the login page.

Anyway, the test did help me gather some information faster than I thought. I'm ending the test right after I type this post.
