The Master Cylinder (2/22/2013)
Jim and Ted, there are more than a few guys on The Ford Barn that still can't get on. I told them about deleting their cookies and all but still can't get on. Is there a better contact than giving them Ted's place of business E-mail? Doesn't seem right to have all these guys bothering you when your working. It's not a bother to contact me at my business email as that's seems to be the best way to contact me. And at this point, I've got it down on doing the resets to individual accounts as I become aware of them. But for those that can not log in, I do need the email address and username that's being used for the forums to expedite fixing those accounts that are still having trouble.
I'll talk to Jim and see if we can temporarily assign someone that can access the accounts and start doing resets on all of them that have not logged on since Feb 7th. While I've done quite a few and have it down to one a minute including sending out an email to that account, it's still a daunting task considering there may be well over a thousand accounts that are still unable to log in and do not realize that the site is up and running and not simply posting them an error message.

I was one of the " guys from the Ford Barn that couldn't get on " ...obviously OK now . Yes the log in is much quicker and I can be automatically logged in ! Life is good .
Thanks for all the hard work ...it has really paid off .

To the site owner, I believe you probably have many members unable to log in, I created a new registration to post this as I continued to be directed to the ERROR pages when attempting to log in. Once an attempt was made the ERROR pages continue until I deleted cookies then viewing was possible. I tried all suggestions which were posted but none made a difference.
For me posting is not so important and it took a while to remember I had another email address I could use to register anew. It also may be helpful to have a redirect at the old address (maybe to late) to guide members here.
I hope the new site is less painful for you to operate as we all know it took a lot of effort to keep the old site running. Thanks for Keeping the Dream Alive!, and I hope someday everyone gets back in.

B7ME (2/27/2013) ....... I had another email address I could use to register anew. ....... Ted in Redding, formerly known as brokengate.Brokengate. As I become aware of user accounts that do not login properly, I can do some resets that restore the accounts. If you’d like the Brokengate account brought back to life, just email me directly with your username and the email address used to access the account and I’ll see what I can do.

Jim, Thanks for all of the efforts! One thing I noticed (not sure if you can do anything about it) is that I cant post comments/replies from my ipad. I can click the "reply" button, and the dialogue box comes up, and i can type in the response or comment, but it doesnt recognize the "post reply" button, so it never actually posts the replies. Is there a way to address that? Thanks!

I think this new site is great but I could not get past the log in until just now. I would get logged in but could not post because of an error page. If I did not log out at that time I was done. My computer would not even let me in to the Y-Blocksforever site. So I went to the FORD BARN site became a member and found my way to Ted Eatons E-mail address. I assume that Mr.Ted fixed things for me so that I can now log in and post. Thank You Ted Eaton. I don't know what the site would do without you. Gene Stoehr Kuttawa, Ky.

You might try emailing him using the “Site Mechanic (Webmaster)” link on the sites homepage. http://www.y-blocksforever.com/

Not experiencing any bugs, so take this as a compliment. I really LIKE the new feature where I get an email to my regular email address once someone has posted a PM to me. Everything's working well! We appreciate it Jim and the crew!
