Locked out of my own forum

Ken43
HELP please I am locked out of my own Nabble forum.
I have had no problems for over a year and then suddenly I tried to log in with my usual (Administerative) identity and nabble ignores it and sends me back to my Nabble Home page BUT NOT LOGGED IN.
I tried this on my other forum identities and the same thing happens.
The only possible clue to this problem I can give is that a short while ago my ownership of one of my Domain Names expired. This Domain Name may have been mentiond by me when I set up the NABBLE forum (I can't remember) but this domain has not been used by me for many months and I would not have thought it relevant.
Please, please help I can't get in can anyone help.
The Nabble forum conserned is:
http://sussex-seniors-home-page.23692.x6.nabble.com/;cid=1366893124641-506
or it can be reached in an embeded form at:
www.sussexseniors.co.uk
Thank you.

(As this problem is not related to the NAML laguage, the topic has been moved "Free Support".)
You appear confused, or not telling the whole story. The link:

http://sussex-seniors-home-page.23692.x6.nabble.com/;cid=1366893124641-506
is redirected to:
http://www.sussexad.co.uk/

The forum found at:
http://www.sussexseniors.co.uk/
was created by Ed. (Note the full stop) and has a permalink of:
http://sussex-seniors-advertiser.23692.x6.nabble.com/

Are you Ed.?
Have you started two forums?
If the fourm http://sussex-seniors-advertiser.23692.x6.nabble.com/ is not supposed to be embedded in http://www.sussexseniors.co.uk/ where is it supposed to be embedded.

The one thing can be said with certainty is that you will need the assistance of Nabble staff to remove the embedding from the forum that is embedded in the domain that has lapsed. That will then free it up for you to embed it elsewhere.

Thank you Greg for your reply and I really appreciate someone to share this problem with.
Yes you are correct I am very confused and because I am unable to undersand the problem confronting me I probably am not giving you the whole story.
Trying to answer your questions:-
1) My main identity on the forum is Ed.  
2) If my memory serves me correctly, in the past my Nabble Forum was embeded in www.sussexad.co.uk but a year or so ago I thought I had enbedded it in www.sussexseniors.co.uk (that is how it has seemed to work and how it appeared to me).
3) There is and was only ever ONE forum.  

As I can not access my forum (in any way) at the moment I would like to take up your suggestion and "ask the Nabble staff to remove the embedding from the forum" and this I hope will give me access again.
May I ask how I ask the Nabble staff to do this, is there a link?
Regards.
Ken (Ken43) (Ed.)

As owners, Nabble staff have total access to the whole system and powers beyond that of an ordinary forum administrator.

By posting here you notify them of a problem - if that's what you meant by "llink".

How they achieve what they do I don't bother to worry about - if you meant, do they have still more options on their menus than I have as a forum owner and administrator.
