Authentication link for a member gives error 10 years 4 months ago #30740

I am the admin for club 4000 district 46 area 42.

One of our members tried setting his password - he was able to get the authentication email sent to his mailbox, but once he clicked on the authenticattion link and tried setting his password, he got an error message. I tried resetting my password as well, and I experienced the same issue.

It looks like last night this was working because people were able to authenticate and loggin. Is there something I can do to fix this or is the issue with the host?

Thanks!

Brian Offline Administrator Posts: 11644 Thank you received: 3880	What is the error message you are seeing? What browser and version are you using? I just logged in as you and as site admin, and no errors. Thank you, Brian McDonald DTM, PDD D61 FTH Lead Technical Support member Cataraqui Valley Toastmaster 9560

wg_f95 Topic Author Visitor	In case the attachment is not coming through - the message appears on the "Create your password" window and it reads: There was an error with your login-the session id attached to your email ([a bunch of letters]) was not valid. Please check to make sure the full link was sent when clicked. The full link WAS being sent - we both tried clicking and copying it.

wg_f95 Topic Author Visitor	I just tried requesting the authentication email again - the moment I open this link the error comes up before I even try setting a password and the set password button is not active.

Thank you received: 3831

The session ID was not getting saved during the authenticate--this is now fixed.
Exit your browser, reload it and the website, then you should be fine..
