I am having issues using the forum. I created an account when I return to gemini://maiaforum.net/index.gmi it says
You are not logged in. Please register for full access to this forum.
When I go back to the registration page and try to register again it says
You are already logged in!

@CitySlicker
Can you confirm that you are using the client certificate with which you registered on the page which says you aren't logged in? It sounds like you are using your certificate on the registration page, but not on the index.
Hi @eriounious, here's some weirdness on a screen recording:

Thank you for the recording!
So, the "weirdness" there is caused by your not using the same client certificate on every page you visit. If you take a look at the bar to your left, you can see the text of your certificate change from "Using on this page" to "Used on..."
It is helpful when you create a certificate for the forum to select the option to use it on the entirety of the domain (maiaforum.net). Otherwise you have to manually enable your certificate on every page which requires one.
Though, links to individual posts shouldn't have to require being logged in to see. I'm not sure why I made it that way. I'll change it.
It seem like you are approaching it bass ackwards. Registration is not a goal, but perhaps a necessary formality, but only when absolutely needed. If you are walling off a forum, even the one of your own making... I think I've done all I could here.
Hi,
I am using it on every page, I never asked Lagrange to use the other cert - that one is for a single site. I’ll do some more recordings if you need.

You aren't: the video you recorded shows this ("used on..." means the cert is NOT being used on the current page). If you created the cert to be used on the entire domain, then it might be a bug with Lagrange. Otherwise, you have to explicitly enable the certificate on every page you visit, even if it's a page on the same domain.
I’ll have a look through it but I find is strange as I never had issues like this before.
New forum — Hello, I have launched another forum for Gemini/Titan at [gemini link] I would welcome feedback and suggestions from people here, especially in regard to display and formatting. My inspiration is a vbulletin-esque Web forum, so hopefully it is interesting in its difference from this board. It is a work in progress, so there are several features I've not yet added, like PMs and permissions for moderators (separate from normal users or administrators). I hope its basic...
