Registering and Logging In to the Forums

Registering for the Forums

Before you can post on the Slow Travel Forums, you must register. This is free. Groupee is our registration system. To register, click the Login/Register link in the upper right corner of the forums. Or click this link to register.

Before you can post on the forums, you must verify your email address. The Groupee registration system sends you an email with a link that you click and that tells Groupee that you have verified your email. If the link is not active within your e-mail (which sometimes happens with services such as AOL), cut and paste the link to the address line in your browser. You must go to that link to activate your membership.

You did not receive the verification email

If you did not receive this verification email after registering, your Spam filter has stopped the email. Check your Spam folder, you may find the verification email there.

Some email programs, such as AOL, stop Spam but do not put it in a Spam folder that you can check. In this case, add this email address to your "safe list": support_bot@groupee.com.

To have the Verification Email resent:

Go to the main login screen and login with your email and password.
Groupee tells you that you have not verified your email address and gives you a link to have another sent, as show below.

Logging In to the Forums

The most common problem if you cannot login is that you have forgotten your password.

You do not remember your password

Make sure the domain "groupee.com" has been added to your "safe list", so you will receive the email from them.
Go to the login screen and click the link to have your password resent - "Lost Password". See the red arrow on the screen below.

You will receive an email from Groupee with your password. This email is sent to the email address you have registered with. Remember, password is case-sensitive - type it exactly as it appears in the email they send you.

You still cannot login

If you try to login and get this message "Login failed. Please double-check your login credentials" then you may be typing your password wrong. Password is case-sensitive. Be sure you are entering the password correctly.

You have changed your email address

If you have changed your email address and know your password, you can login, using your old email address, and change your email address in your profile to the new email address (click GO > PERSONAL ZONE > PROFILE, then click EDIT PROFILE in upper right). You will be sent an email so you can verify the new email address. Read more here.
