WCAF Expo Registration Website Down?

So, I am trying to register for the conference online (again), but no luck. First, I opened the email from WCAF saying the conference schedule is now available, down at the bottom it asks if you want to register and there used to be 2 links for 1 for "YES" and 1 for "NO". Now, it just says "NO"; "YES" is apparently no longer an option for me. So, then I logged into the website directly, it came up fine, but when I clicked on "REGISTER", it eventually says "This Page Can't Be Displayed." I'm starting to feel like there's a conspiracy against me registering . . . Are other people having problems, or is it just me? Is the site down?
 
I"m not sure if this will help.

My email says, to begin, click here. That link sends me to the website, where I enter my confirmation number.

I just tried it and it works.

have you tried refreshing the wcaf registration page?

I'm sorry you are having a difficult time.

If you are a chapter leader, you might want to wait until next week to sign up for classes when the PPFA chapter leader package come out.

Good luck,
Sarah
 
Thanks for your suggestions Sarah. Unfortunately I have tried everything and nothing works. In the past the classes I wanted to take have always filled-up, so I have been waiting for this class schedule to be released so that I can get a jump on the classes this year. Unless I can somehow circumvent the online registration, it looks like I will not be able to register this year. Does anyone know of a live person at WCAF who could help me with this?
 
If the link in the email no longer works, try downloading the email again. Some email programs will not show attachments a links after you have used them once.

If that doesn't solve it, you will need to clear your cookies or visit the website repeatedly to clear the cookie that is causing the problem. If you are unable to access the WCAF 2016 website at all, an easier solution, is to use a different computer if you have access to one.

You should be able to go to the WCAF 2016 website, select "register" from the red buttons on the right, and bring up a screen that begins the registration process.

Enter your name and email address, then choose "PPFA member" from the drop down menu on the "registration type" line. When checking out, enter your membership number in the promotional code box for the discount.

I just went through these steps and the site is functioning normally.
 
IT WORKED! I gave it one more try before leaving for the weekend and much to my surprise the link was back and working! I am registered! Thanks to everyone for your suggestions, and I hope everyone has a much smoother experience than mine.:smile-new:
 
Great Liz

Computers can be great except when they are not.

Sometimes when I am having problems, I look over my shoulder to see if there is a camera taking pictures of me and my frustration, so it can be shown on the internet.
