how do i reclaim an old forum!?

help needed
i made a forum (but i was unregistered that time) and i left it and when i go back to it it doesnt have the "claim this forum" link which i need to have administrator privilages like deleting and moving threads.
i have now registered, how can i reclaim my forum? i can easily find the forum on google by the way.

How do you "go back to" a forum on this website? I can make a new one, but I can't find my old one, nor does my forum (on my blog) have a "claim this forum" either. How can I find a link like the one s/he posted below?

Thanks!

Never mind about "how to find"... for future users, go to Google, click on advanced search, type in the name of your forum, then use the "search within" box at the bottom and say "nabble.com" Your search should look like [name of your forum] site:nabble.com. Nothing simpler!
Admin, can you do for me what you did for "help needed"? The link for mine is http://absolute-truth.765154.n3.nabble.com/

Thanks!

You must register to that forum so that I can make your account the forum owner. This is usually done automatically when you login for the first time in the forum. So please register there and check if you can edit the forum. If not, please post the link to your registered account and I will fix the forum for you.

I don't think I'm the admin still... what would the "link to [my] registered account" look like? Plus, the Options>download archives you mentioned in my other thread doesn't seem to be available.

Thanks again for your help!

go to a post and click more and if it displays "delete post and replys"
then you are the owner/admin but the download archive thing doesnt appear on mine maybe its not supposed to?
or maybe its because im using the old nabble system if you arnt the admin and you want to be it might be a good idea to make a new support thread giving hugo the link to your forum and your screen name

hope this helps
hugo is probably very busy so checking older threads may be delayed, making new ones will get attention faster
