Today we have made it possible to use multiple logins to access standard features of this forum. Once you have registered at this forum by following the usual procedure, you can now link your existing Open Discussion Forums account to Facebook, Google or Twitter by following these three simple steps:

  1. If you're not an existing member, register and verify your registration by clicking the link that is sent to the email address (be sure to check all your mail boxes including Spam/Junk/ mail box) you used to register with.
  2. If you are an existing member, skip step one.
  3. While logged in Facebook, Google or Twitter, link your existing account at Open Discussion Forums with one of your preferred network by clicking either of the Google, Facebook or Twitter button at the Login screen, then fill in your Open Discussion Forums Username and Password, click Login. Your social network account is now permanently linked to your Open Discussion Forums Account.
When you try to login in with one of your social network accounts (Google, Facebook or Twitter), you will see a screen with a message:

"TSSFL Open Discussion Forums - Link or register your account on an external service with your board account

You have attempted to login with an external service that is not yet connected to an account on this board. You must now either link this account to an existing account or create a new account."

This means the account that you have signed into with isn't linked to your Open Discussion Forums account. When you get that message, log into your forum as normal and the respective social account will be linked to it and in future you can log in using your linked account to log in at Open Discussion Forums.

Connecting your Facebook, Google or Twitter account (even all accounts) to your TSSFL Open Discussion Forums account, provides you with multiple ways of login in and helps to ensure you don't lose access to your account even if you don't remember your password and username.
