Error opening Livecode

Post by pink » Mon Nov 20, 2023 7:49 pm

Anyone else having an issue logging into LC? I can't get into the website not the program. Had no problem yesterday, today I can't start it up.

Livecode says "the email you have entered is unrecognizable."

livecode.com says: "There was an error logging in. Please check your details and try again."

My email and pasword haven't been changed by me, so I am like dead in the water.

Using Safari on a Mac.

The situation is even weirder here for me: the main site loads okay, but on my phone I can't find where to log into my customer account at all. I had hoped to help test this report, but either I'm blind or there's a template issue that doesn't render an important link when accessing on a phone.

LC had some problems, which are now fixed!
Please try again.

Can anyone else log in from a phone? I still don't see the link.

I probably just missed the link. Where is it?

That's what I was hoping do to. Where is the button? Can you describe which part of the layout I can find it in?

On android (Samsung Internet browser) on the livecode.com site there's a hamburger menu in the top bar.
Opening that shows the login option near the bottom of the page of menu items, to the right of the button for starting a trial.

Richard.

I thought you could not even access the site, not that you were stalled once there. I have no issue either getting there or navigating once there. (iPhone)

Ah, thank you. It's the tiny text next to the big blue button. Not a bad placement once you see it, but I managed to miss it in several hunts.

I had hoped that anything not easily findable in the main menu up top would at least be linked in the comprehensive footer. But alas, the footer is no longer comprehensive, now just a few links.

It seems they've even removed the last remaining link to the page that showed LC has a community of third party consulting developers. Now newcomers think the only people available to help is just the vendor, that after a quarter century they've attracted no community of services.
