    There’s a wide-spread technical “invalid activation key” issue evidenced by the multiple active threads on the front page of this forum and beyond all reporting the same issue. All have been flagged for Staff attention. That’s what you need help with and I suggest taking a break for a few hours and return. Hopefully, Staff will have fixed this by then.

    Sorry for the trouble!

    We identified and corrected the issue. The affected blogs are each being fixed individually.

    If yours has not been fixed yet, it should be in a few hours.
