Anyone else having trouble logging in through Firefox? I couldn't log in, everytime I did, it would say I successfully logged in and then I would be taken to the main menu but I wasn't logged in. However, when I logged in through Internet Explorer it worked (and is working) fine. It's been like this for at least a couple of hours. Also, is there a help button to get in touch with someone when you're not logged in because I wasn't sure who to contact regarding this issue in the event I couldn't log in.

I had the same problem when I tried logging in at abbforums.net. So I went back to the abb.net homepage, and found that the forum link had been changed to alterbridgeband.com/forums/. That seems to work for me.

Maybe the board was somehow reconfigured? Looks like they got around to changing the 'download rise today!' link to the AB DVD banner.

Hate to rain on the browser war parade, but it's not a browser-specific issue.

Here's my theory:
Since the board was previously found at abbforums.net/forums/, your login cookies only applied to that site. So now that the board has been moved to alterbridgeband.net/forums/, there was a conflict between your existing cookies and the new site path. So it's not a browser issue. Any browser that you had set to auto-login was going to have issues.

I'm not sure when the URL change happened, but it was before I re-joined the mod team and that was a couple of months ago now, I believe. But as long as we have a fix, that's good news.

And yes... Chrome is indeed the bomb.
