I’m having a trouble with this on moody.diy. I’m not receiving the verification mail, I even changed my email with another one on my profile page in hopes it was some filter bullshit. No email again. I tried it several times
On the other hand on cogdemos site I’m still logged in and there is no message to verify my email.
Edit: just to clarify - I didn’t log out from moody, it just asked to verify my email when I clicked the tab. I keep it open most of the time.
I’m not getting the email either, and I’m 100% sure that I’m checking my correct email address Checked in spam too. The verification notification kinda just popped up on the screen on an already open tab, without me having to log out. I was like, hm, okay, I’ll verify then… Except the email didn’t come. Then I logged out, logged back in, clicked on the ‘send again’ button, but still no email. Then I went to edit my profile to make 10000% sure that I gave the correct email address, clicked the button there again, still nothing. I don’t want to overwhelm the system though so I’m not clicking again.
Hi. Sorry to bother you, but my readers reported an issue accessing my demo, is that a side effect of the email verification? I told them to make sure their emails are verified, but I am not getting the verification email, like others have mentioned, and I was wondering if my inability to verify my email is preventing readers from accessing my demo?
The reason verification isn’t working right now is because you guys broke my SMTP provider last night. I got too many hits from the same email addresses and it locked my account down.
I’m going to need some time to sort it. Give me a few hours, please.
And please, stop trying to verify. For now, just stay logged out. I got a ton of nasty messages from mailtrap.
Edit:
It appears mailtrap is not going to reinstate my account with any swiftness and I’ll have to take my business elsewhere.
Since I’m not sure how long it will take to get a new SMTP service set up, I rolled back the change. Email verification is not required now, so everyone should be able to get into their accounts right now.
That said, if you need your password reset, you’ll need to DM me for now. Until I get another SMTP service set up, the password reset link will not work.
It’s a permanent change. When the dev adjusted the code to better protect viewing game code if the author chose not to share it, he changed the way the link was accessed (the “mygame” was a back door, so now it’s used as the main link).
I thought I had mentioned that change here, but it might have been in a game thread. I’ll add it to the top post. Thanks for posting that!
“The image the page is trying to show doesn’t actually exist on the server” is, of course, a major one. Weren’t there some issues about image uploading a while go? Could be worth checking, if it’s only some games.
I know a few phpBB spam-blockers… maybe those could be worth looking into for ideas? It’s all open-source, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
…wait, is it actually possible to save your local saves on disc (and not browser data)? I don’t seem to be able to figure out how to do so, what am I missing?
Sorry to bother you, but when you rolled back the change just yesterday, did you also roll back the fix that was supposed to prevent the saves from causing the ‘storage full’ issue? Because I had a reader report me today (this is the first time I’m getting this report though) that they got the storage full thing yesterday and today, but only on my game. They had 4 saves. They deleted them, and the error message still came up, but they are not getting it on any other games and they can still make new saves on others.
There were some problems earlier. I just found that rolling back removed my changes to the allowed file sizes (previously, it only allowed up to 2MB, and I had adjusted it to allow up to 8MB).
As for the files not being on the server, I would need more from users than, “I’m getting blue question marks for images” and would, instead, need the game name and link (giving me the author name makes it faster for me to find the game, because there are a lot now) to check to see if the images are there.
tl;dr: The more information I have about problems and errors, the more likely I can figure out what’s happening. Or, at the very least, I have some place to start.
It’s worth looking into. I found a new mail provider that isn’t too expensive. I signed up and am now waiting for my CNAME data to populate. Once it does, I can get the smtp server info changed and go back to testing the verification on moody. The new provider allows 5k emails per month, so that should be plenty to cover both domains. I hope…
Export them. You can export your entire group of saves to a file at the location of your choosing. Just click ‘save’ like you’re going to save the game, make sure “local” is chosen, then choose “export”. I know that’s enough for you, but it would probably help to have explicit instructions for everyone. I’ll add that to the first post in this thread.
You aren’t bothering me.
The rollback shouldn’t have impacted anything. I switched to the last branch prod was on (the one that fixed the local storage full errors), so it shouldn’t be causing issues unless it was causing issues before.
It is possible that switching back and forth caused some corrupted data (I had to use the branch instead of the commit, because switching to the right commit gave me a detached head state, which I try to avoid). The email verification branch required an addition to the user table. It is nullable, so it shouldn’t interfere, but sometimes things are finnicky about db changes. Did they clear their cache before attempting to save again?
I’ll mention this to the dev and see if he has any ideas. The branch prod is on now is the one that was supposed to fix this problem, so it shouldn’t be happening.
I think there also needs to be a “file uploaded successfully” (or not) message. I just tested to make sure a large file could be uploaded and you have to actually scroll down and see if the file is there or not to know it uploaded. Otherwise, there’s no message, even if it fails.
I think this is something I can actually do myself.
I’ll take a look at it. It will likely be later–I’m in a meeting so I can respond here. It’s about to be over and I have to get back to work. Meetings are so damned boring.
