I am a WACA member, and I do log in, but when I want to view the magazines it tells me I have to log in, so I click that little ‘log in’ link in the text and log in again and then try to view a magazine, only to get the same message.

Update: I just renewed my membership for 2015 and now I can view the magazines. I was under the impression that my membership was good to the end of 2014, but it seems that the Magazine option had already expired.

Are you able to upload photos directly? That would be a sign your log on account is good.

I have to log out first , then re-log in , after a couple hours when the magazine viewing stops working, But am really enjoying the back issues. One thing I had never seen in the Cody letters was the added description “good shooter” I thought only proof firing was done, also wonder how they could tell with those sights and plain trigger, but they must have shot some guns a bit testing for accuracy

Sorry about the confusion… I can’t tell you why that happened. 

We’ll look into it for the benefit of other members. 

Thanks for pointing it out!

Phil,

Even if I’m logged in and posting on the forum I have to log in again to view the magazines.

The early 73’s did have notations like “Target 3″ in the ledger which is a 3” group.

I’m reading similar problems , and fixes, but I cannot read magazines at all, and checking picture uploading, I see I now have the dreaded ” red box X “.

Membership paid up long ago. I was once advised I could upload pictures, and I could read the one magazine available before all came online. Still have to do math, even on this message.

I’m not receiving direct responses when sending PM’s for help, so have to go ” live” on forum. Any help appreciated. I sense my profile and permissions needs review.

Bill,

It sounds like you have the same problem I and a few others had. There is a duplicate account in the data base. I would start  a new thread  with your problem in this forum so it  gets noticed.

Thanks Bob.

I’m actually regressing ! Duplicate accounts seems most likely. I read of your early trials, so I know it’s fixable.

Mike checked once and said I had upload capability.

Bill, I see in the sidebar under your User name that there is no ‘WACA member’, so the sight is not recognizing that you are a member. If you are paid up for 2015, then it should instantly change to ‘WACA member’ from WACA guest. Assuming you are paid up, I don’t know what the problem is. For me, I was paid up to the end of the month and could not view the magazines, but the moment I renewed my membership for 2015, this WACA sight allowed me to start viewing the magazines.

By the way, I am thrilled with the ability to view these magazines.

It seems I had the similar problems others faced earlier on with the merger of accounts. It didn’t help that I had two different email addresses going; one for the Forum, and another for the WACA account , with two names ! Mike is helping me out and is much appreciated.

I’ve simplified things and hope things work out soon. With Holiday time, the admin guys are stretched out in time and workload, so I’m fine waiting.

Thanks, guys, for the input.
