Logging in to RR to updrade membership

[HPTQRPM]

So I've been a RR member since 2010 or so, and I think being able to log into the forum to make this post verifies that I am a registered user, lol.
I'm trying to renew my Premium subscription, but when I try to do that, even when logged into the forums like I am now, I get directed to a log-in page, and after entering my user name and password there, I get an error saying it does not recognize me.
So...how do I renew? I mean, this seems like a really simple thing, so I think I must be doing something really stupid!
EDIT: After making this post, it shows I'm a Premium Subscriber...I don't recall renewing, but I don't know what I had for lunch today,either.

The "forum" and the "website" are separate log in. I don't know why one would recognize you and the other not however.

There are 4 sections to Radio Reference, the main site where your profile is and the gateway to other areas like the database, Broadcastify, the Forums and the Wiki. Each section requires you to log in with your original (main) RR log-in. It is possible you are having issues because you are trying to access it through the forums rather than logging into the main RR site.
