If you are a registered member and can not enter the password protect
area...
There are two possible reasons why you are unable to get into the members'
area (...most likely it is #2 "enable cookies" and that should get you in):
-----------
#1. You are not using the correct username and password that you
set-up...
If you ever forget your password, you may use the form at the bottom of the
"Password" entry page and we will immediately/automatically email it to you.
(This works only if you still can receive emails at the email address you
entered when you registered or last updated your profile on this site.) If
you have failed to update to your new email address and no longer have
access to your old email address, then you will need to email
gospel@NewTestamentChurch.org and we will manually update the new email
address for you.
Your "Username" is your email address. (If Husband &
Wife, both must use Husband's email address as username)
If you registered under an old email address, try that address and then
update to your new email address once you have access to the members' area.
#2. Subject: "Cookies" & Placing NewTestamentChurch.org in
your “Trusted Sites” Zone.
- It appears that a new Microsoft update has increased the security of
browsers...
but
has caused some members not to be able to enter the “members area” of
our website.
- If you are having this problem, you will need to place
http://www.NewTestamentChurch.org
and
http://www.NT-C.org in the
“Trusted Sites" Zone on your browser.
- Most likely the new updates have
dis-abled "cookies" on your browser that are needed for the members
area.
- Temporary "cookies" are stored on your
computer to verify that you are a valid user. If your system is not set
up to accept cookies, you will be unable to view the members’ portion of
the site.
-
- To learn more about "cookies" and how
to "enable cookies," I have copied the following info for your review:
-
- -----------------------
- Understanding Cookies
- Some Web sites store information in a
small text file, called a "cookie," on your hard disk.
-
- Cookies contain information about you
and your preferences. For example, if you inquire about a flight
schedule at an airline's Web site, the site might create a cookie that
contains your itinerary. Or it might only contain a record of which
pages within the site you visited, to help the site customize the view
for you the next time you visit.
-
- Only the information that you provide,
or the choices you make while visiting a Web site, can be stored in a
cookie. For example, the site cannot determine your e-mail name unless
you choose to type it. Allowing a Web site to create a cookie does not
give that or any other site access to the rest of your computer, and
only the site that created the cookie can read it.
-
- Internet Explorer is set up to allow
the creation of cookies; however, you can specify that you be prompted
before a site puts a cookie on your hard disk, so you can choose to
allow or disallow the cookie; or you can prevent Internet Explorer from
accepting any cookies.
-
- You can
specify different settings for
different security zones. For example, you might want to allow
Web sites to create cookies if they are in your Trusted sites or Local
intranet zone, prompt you before creating cookies if they are in your
Internet zone, and never allow cookies if they are in your Restricted
sites zone.
-
- In MS Internet Explorer: (below
is the best recommendation to place
NewTestamentChurch.org and
NT-C.org
...into your “Trusted Sites” zone.)
- ***To enable "cookies" in the "Trusted
Sites" zone: ***
-
- On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer,
click Internet Options.
- Click the Security tab and then click
the “Trusted Site” zone icon... then place setting to “low”.
- (note: this will only set your
“trusted” sites to this “low” security setting.)
-
-
-
- Click on "Sites" button
- Remove check mark in check box next to:
"Require server verification (https:)"
- Now add: http://www.newtestamentchurch.org
and click “Add”.
- Now add: http://www.NT-C.org and click
“Add”.
- Now add: http:*.newtestamentchurch.org
(period “.” after the “*”) and click “Add”.
- ...then click "Close"
...then click "apply"
- ...then click "OK" ...finished !
:-)
-
- If your browser is not MS Explorer,
then you will need to go to the "Help" menu of your browser and do a
search for information on "cookies."
-
- This should fix the members’ entry
problem, HOWEVER... If it does not fix it on your machine, please
let me know so I can research other possibilities.
