Indeed. I have my share of experience. Sometimes the admin only needs to change some minimal settings that shouldn't affect accounts, and the account won't work properly until you reset the cookies and login again. Happened with me during the restore of my website's forums, and lots of times, I must say.Glad to hear everything is fine now, John. Cookies are usually the primary culprit with issues such as the one described here. I give them a regular clear out using ccleaner (free download and very much worth getting for keeping rubbish off your PC).

Yes, strange things sometimes do happen. From an admin perspective the issue is often isolation, and the first thing that needs ascertaining is whether the problem is confined to an individual member, whether it is a member group issue, or if it is a forum-wide issue. From there you can go troubleshooting.Indeed. I have my share of experience.

Along with cookies, it is the first piece of advice we always offer, and it solves a large proportion of the problems.It took a fair amount of tinkering around to come up with the solution of delete/move/delete/move the temporary internet files.
