Hello is there a way to recover my old forum? Awhile I requested to remove it. I tried to create another one with the same url and it says the name is already claimed. I try to visit. Forum URL: computersetc.proboards.comI get the Uhhh... Message Uhhh... We were unable to locate the forum you are attempting to access. This may be due to an angry bear, or maybe you just typed the URL wrong. Are you sure that you typed the correct URL? For help, please visit the ProBoards Support Forum. Ca Is there any way to recover my old forum? Thanks BTW here is the original thread I would not log in under the username for some reason. Original Request

Hi Looks like the correct URL should be computersetc.boards.net/It should be able to restore it, but you would need to verify ownership. Is the account you are using to post the above using the same global account/email address which was used for the forum that has been deleted? Craig

Craig It seems I am having trouble finding the account I used. But the original request to delete win7user. I cannot seem to find the password or email for that account. I hope I can get this worked out. I do have the Original email where the forum was created but do not have login access. A guy helped me start it and he was the original owner and turned it over to me. I can PM you his email if that will help.

Win7User, unfortunately the email for this account (win7user) does not match that of the forum. Without a match we are unable to restore the forum. Sorry.

But can I change where it shows My Computers ETC? I would Upload an image but how? Head over to Admin>Themes>Colors and Theme Creator. From there you can use the Forum Banner section to either link your forum banner (hosted elsewhere) or upload the banner to the forum. In Admin>themes>Theme Manger (then select the theme name to access the Theme Settings) you can choose if you would like to display the forum name, logo, or nothing at all (Do not display a title) in the banner area. If you are uploading your own banner to the theme and want to remove the text, select Do Not Display a Title. Let us know if you have any further questions!

I tell you one thing is for sure. The software this forum uses is the most fouled up mess I have ever seen in my life. The global log in is a mess. On my forum I need to change my email address. I try to change it and it tells me the email is already in use. I try to recover the password with that email it tells me no accounts found with that email. Now what the Sam Hill is going on with this blasted thing?

Now what the Sam Hill is going on with this blasted thing? Please check out this help guide article about the global account system.It sounds like you have two global accounts and you need to merge them. There are instructions provided at the help guide link above on how to merge your global accounts into a single account. If you have any questions about the process please let us know and we'll be able to assist.
