Archive ...how?

I registered on the site and my new login appears to work,...however, I still get the page on HOW to register when I try to look at back numbers of ME.......

Any clues?.........the 'mytimemedia' email add does not work, so I can't ask them!

Hi Bob

Have you entered your subscribers number in the settings area? (I assume that you have a digital subscription to ME)

Dave

As Dave says you have not entered your subscription number in Settings ( left of the green bar towards top of page)

No, I don't have any number....I registered with this website (which is a 'free' register) ...Have received the email from site owner and 'clicked' it ...whgich brought me back here, but the archive page still 'offers' me a free sign up..

.........Anyone got any clues?

You can only view the digital archive if you have a suitable magazine subscription.

Are you a subscriber to either ME or MEW? and if so what type of subscription, Print, Print + or Digital

See item three

Thanks for posts,.......but, presumably the website is WRONG then?..!!

To access the archive it says I only need a 'free' register with the website,....NOT a magazine subscription

...Here is a paste of the archive page;

To access the Online Archive please follow these steps:

1. Register for a free member account at www.model-engineer.co.uk/join or log in to your existing account using the Register / Log-in link in the top left hand corner of the page.

No that is correct it is free to register.

Just fill all the info into the boxes.

Free to become a member of the forum but not free access to the Digital archive.

The archive is classed as "subscriber only" from the link that you provided above:

....I'm not a model engineer, don't read modelling mags, don't want a subscription and don'e like steam engines.....

............I just want to look at back numbers for 2008 when they published a clock design that 'might' be interesting

If you can't access the archive then the website needs somne attention because it clearly claims that you CAN acccess with a FREE website subscription...........

You only quoted iten No 1 on the list, I advised you to look at No 3

3. Make sure that your details match those that you subscribed with and that your subscription number is entered.

No subs number no access.

Suggest you see if your local or main libruary can get the back issues or buy them on e-bay.

Bob is clicking the ARCHIVE button in the black bar. (That button appears to do nothing since the site upgrade)

The back issues are in the Magazine button in the green bar. (You need a subscription to access this)
