Doors are open!

Hey everyone,

I dropped a couple bills this morning to buy the software needed to get the site integrated and ready for Underground. I spent most of today setting things set up and tinkering with configurations. I somehow managed to not run in to any major errors, so…I think things are good to go!

EDIT (Saturday Morning): Things don’t seem to be working as I hoped, so here are the revised instructions for registration.

Step 1: Create a new account

If it shows that you are logged in already on the sidebar, log out.

Then, register a new account.

Step 2: E-mail Adam if it says my username is taken

If your username is taken, please select a new username. If you want to merge your previous accounts with the new one, e-mail me:

adam@sixprizes.com

Include the following:

1. Your new account username
2. Your previous account usernames (both WordPress and vBulletin if you have them)
3. Your desired username

I will manually go in and merge the accounts for you.

If your username isn’t taken, then you are fine, unless you have previous accounts you’d like to be merged with your new one.

Why should I do this?

This is basically the new way to log in to the site. If you log in on the sidebar, it will log you into WordPress and the forums at the same time. You won’t have to fill out two separate forms to log in.

I wasn’t able to integrate Disqus unfortunately; I’m hoping they will make a plugin or something I can use for that too.

This will also pre-register you for a new e-mail list I will be starting up sometime in the next month. I will use it to send you tips, updates, and coupons for actual Underground subscriptions.

I will probably e-mail coupon codes for free month trials, so that may be of interest to you…

Lookout!

After you register, you will receive a confirmation e-mail. You may have to check your spam folder to find it, I wasn’t really able to test it out to see what happens. You need to click on a link in that e-mail in order to activate your account.

Again, please let me know if you come across any issues or if you have any questions.

Alright well I guess that’s it…I’m pretty tired. I ran/jogged/walked for an hour in the heat today. It was fun but I’m zapped right now.

Later,

Adam

    Mine said Smarty Error but I haven't checked my email yet

  • Kyle

    Guys I bring Importnat Information, When you finish registering it will have a smarty error but soon after check your email as it will have the confirmation email in there!

  • tweedmoore

    I signed up for new account, but after registering, it gave me an error page. Sorry didn't write down what is said. But i got a registration e-mail and followed link and logged in.

    I'm using firefox 3.6.6 btw.

  • Kyle

    No I don't think I did since my forum account uses my first email adress and for everything else I use my new email so I problaby didn't :/ Sorry man.

  • Walrus

    WARNING: Smarty error: unable to read resource: “email_verify.html” in line 1102 of file Smarty.class.php

    got that after registering

  • tweedmoore

    that seems like the error i got, and it still worked for me.

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Doh. I actually noticed that error when setting things up but didn't think
    it would affect you guys.

    I disabled the e-mail confirmation, so hopefully that goes away.

    Thanks for the quick input!

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Oh wow good! Thanks Kyle!

    I'm going to disable the e-mail confirmation for now just so no one is
    confused. I think that will make the error go away.

    Did you try to merge two accounts btw?

  • bittyboy52/72

    Can I merge 2 accounts if my username is different for my forum and wordpress accounts were different? cuz they are and I am having problem.

  • Slowdog

    This site seems FUBAR

    Here is how I see it. I am using chrome on windows 7 and have had no problems with the site until yesterday:

    Oh, it is all better now.

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Change your username on the forums: http://www.sixprizes.com/forums/profile.php?do=…

    The second option should be to change username. :)

  • Kyle

    Hey Adam i found out with the list you must sign in with your underground account to switch it back, and it may be going haywire but you are fixing some of it and others are helping report it so it doesn't stay that way for long.

  • bittyboy52

    You make me feel stupid I swear I was looking hours for the place to change that.

  • http://www.facebook.com/Poly550 Cam Graybill

    uhh, it says my username is already taken when I try to register, but when I try and log in with it it says that that username is not registered….

  • vennthekid

    Why is the site layout all weird??? The links bar (usually at the top) is now a list of links running down the page. Is it just my computer or is it a change to the site?

  • davehueglin

    Hi Adam,

    I'm unable to get signed up as well. I have changed my sychronized my username, e-mail and password for my two accounts. When I try to register, I get a username already in use message. When I try to log in to that account it tells me I have an incorrect username or password. Then, when I try to recover my password it gives me an error message.

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Sorry, everything is going haywire. :/

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Ok, just make a new account and I will merge your two old ones with the new one.

    You can then change your username later if you want to. E-mail me adam@sixprizes.com with your old account names and I'll merge things.

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Thanks for letting me know Dave. Looks like things haven't worked as planned.

    Just make a new account and I will merge your old ones with the new one. I can also change your username to whatever you'd like.

    E-mail me adam@sixprizes.com with the accounts to merge. Thanks!!

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Sorry about that, things are whack right now. I think it's back to normal.

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    I sent that error message to the software company, hopefully I hear back from them.

    Thanks for letting me know.

  • Pikey

    That happens to me quite often, just keep mashing that refresh button

  • Luke

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    Hey Luke!

    You don't NEED to, but I would recommend it.

    Accounts merged Cam, everything should be integrated now. :)

  • mewuk85

    did the error page get fixed……sorry if im repeating someone else but only have time to leave a post.

  • http://www.adamcapriola.com/ Adam Capriola

    I haven't heard back from the software company but I disabled the
    verification e-mail which I think was causing the issue.

    So I think it's gone, nobody has mentioned errors lately.
