   After seeing a flood of refugees on That Other Forum who were having trouble posting here via Facebook Connect, I wasn't sure what was up. Then I noticed Kendalf posting here with a non-Facebook profile so I did a bit of snooping to see what was up. It appears that Facebook Connect is busted, but you can still post here if you register a native account. To do so, go to

   http://the-hobbit-movie.com/forum/register.php

   After that you will get a confirmation e-mail with a password. To log in, go to

   http://the-hobbit-movie.com/forum/bb-login.php

   And presto. :) You can also change your password through the "Edit" tab at the top of the "View your profile" page. Then you can post through that account the same as you would normally. I hope this is helpful to people!

   Thanks Eldo for all your help. I have been posting on the other threads again but it doesnt show my updates on the page I wonder if it will take a while, ormaybe not register if I am not posting with fb?

   Thanks, indeed! I'm going to bookmark that second link you've provided as I couldn't quite find how to Log In again!

   That's weird. I haven't had any trouble posting until today. I was wondering why no one else was posting.

   I'm glad I could help, everyone! I'm seeing new threads get bumped up to the top of the forum so it seems to be working well. Here's hoping everyone finds their way back safely. :)

   Wow! You're all alive! I thought you'd all fled to the Wonderful Land of Forumshire - or been drownded. I missed you Bree-Landers!

   Hey, are you the same sinister who visited Forumshire, Todd? In and out you were, with barely a 'how's your Mother'. Typical Bree-Lander, I s'pose.

    Hey Eldo, did you put the log in link somewhere n Forumshire. I still have to come here to this thread to log on. I used to be able to do it straight from Forumshire. Preferred it that way. Could jump and forth from Bree with gay abandon --- though gay in the old fashioned sense, of course.

    It's easier to just bookmark the login link. That's what I did and now I don't have to go to ANY thread to find it. But I see that you already took it upon yourself to post the link on Forumshire so perhaps my advice is unneeded. ;)

    Newbie Question Alert! Newbie Question Alert!

    I can only see one page of topics. Are there older threads hidden somewhere else? I don't want to start any new thread on something if one's already been established.

    Thanks.

    If I recall correctly, older threads eventually slip off the front page but can still be viewed if you have the link. I don't know of any way to search an archive of them, though. I wouldn't worry about addressing existing topics though. If it's not on the first page that means it hasn't been discussed for a while anyway, so you can get new perspectives and new people to weigh in.

    Ayup Eldorion...

    Thanks for the Linky, etc. At least one can start with a clean sheet, so to speak. Hopefully FB will get fixed, and we can all fall back into our Comfy little routines again...

    Actually, I need to correct what I said earlier. I thought it was odd that there was no archive so I decided to try changing the URL manually just to see what would happen. Lo and behold, on my first try I discovered this:

    http://the-hobbit-movie.com/forum/page/2

    I don't know how many pages the archive goes back for since I haven't looked (EDIT: I just did look and the archive has five pages). I just think it's bizarre how much there seems to be about this forum that is hidden behind a lack of links.

    Once again, thanks, Eldo. I may go back and post on some of those older threads one of these days.

    Eldo, how do you get to the other pages?

    @Joel

    You're very welcome! I'm glad I can help. :)

    @Jana

    Just change the number at the end of the URL. For example, http://the-hobbit-movie.com/forum/page/3 takes you to the third page of the archive. http://the-hobbit-movie.com/forum/page/4 takes you to the fourth page, and so on.

    Oh, thank you so much for this post. I have been lurking this forum, desperately wanting to put in my two pence on these threads for some time, but kept having issues with the Facebook-app type version of the login. This has made my day.... Now, onto the fun bits!
