Why is this happening.

Added by : Derek sometimes cannot access the links to some threads on the forums.



Still cannot.

This is not a new situation. It occurs with most links such as yours. I get the follow message ...

derekcohen, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I have had enough of this and emailed Neil.

I received the same message for all four attachments. Once I logged in I was able to view them.

For some reason, following wheelin's link takes to to a place where your login is not recognised.

Wheelin's link:

I am logged in (at the new end) and still cannot access the site.

Hi All,

I log in using www.woodworkforums.com.au/ and just tried Wheelin's link above. It took me to the page in a new window but dropped me back to visitor. The images showed as files. Got the same message as Groggy got when I tried to open them.

I then entered my username and password and all the images appeared in the first post.

Do not know if this helps at all. Is a similar experience to Groggy but different experience to Derek perhaps.

Cheers
Pops

OK, it seems that some people have short memories, because you've asked for certain sub-forums to be blocked, you cannot access the link that Ray has put up, this is why you're receiving the message you've quoted.

If you do not wish to receive this message any more, you'll have to have all of the Sub-forums set back to default.
