To reiterate then:

go to tracktion.com

log in as normal

then, from the login drop down menu, select register

you'll see a page with an option to create new account, or download software.

choose create new account (this seems to be for word press only)

update the profile stuff.

set your display style to your name or your nick.

done!
exactly right :D

That's insane! And it didn't work for me. Kept going to the new user entry form. Will keep trying tho.

BTW - the forum layout is a hideous piece of design work. What's up with the header bits and bobs taking up so much of the post space! Nevermind the cryptic iconography, micro-sized fonts and space-wasting left sidebar. It feels like a piece of forum software designed to keep people from engaging in the forum. Works for me. I'll stay over here in the KVR world-view that's at least legible and allows for :x and :(

How is it that the vector based, anything can be re-sized DAW has a non-responsive website that doesn't re-size to different devices??? There are dozens of better WP themes out there that are responsive, no need to pick one from 2008. How am I going to send my missives from my smartphone on the forum that I won't visit since it doesn't want me? Uh...never mind. I'm cranky. Tracktion deserves a slick, easy to navigate site that scales. This isn't it. :x

Yes, it doesn't come over as professional at all! Best if they ditch it and start over with some proper web devs. Can't imagine Jules being pleased with this crap.

I would not use that forum with it's current design unless this kvr forum could not be used. As someone else said...The forum fonts are very small on the Tracktion.com forum, and there does appear to be a lot of wasted space.

As a result the space reserved for posting and reading posts seems needlessly small. :? :shrug:

Lovely. The Bluebird theme looks great! The software appears to be completely free as well. Hopefully Jules and co will consider it. :)

But I personally don't understand what is the need for an internal forum when Tracktion has always had its user "homebase" here in KVR. :?

I am not sure either but it seems Jules an Co. See a need. I am quite happy to post Tracktion related stuff over here. But if they do persist with two forums then if something like the "simplemachines" suggestion is considered then I think it would be a huge improvement on the current Tracktion.com forum. :)
