There is some "magic" going one between a blitzortung forum login and the blitzortung login. Trouble is being "magic" it's not readily understood or documented(*).
You say your forum and blitzortung usernames are the same, good. I'd try logging both fully out on all devices that may be logged in. Then login to the blitzortung.org participant pages. Then from the same browser window wander off to the forums and login with the same user name as you just used to login to the participants pages. With a bit of luck the forums will now recognise you as a participant.
(*) The prceedure is documented some where, I remember reading it. I can't find it now in the obvious places.
