Vercel deployment request(now Netlify)

[im-coder-lg]

I thought we were going to open Vercel deploys yesterday, is it done? If not, tell me here and I'll help out with the creation.

[sumeshir26]

@im-coder-lg No, my github account is just not linking!

[im-coder-lg]

Sign up with an email and then try GitHub linking.

[im-coder-lg]

Or try signing up from other devices than your PC.

[im-coder-lg]

My login worked, maybe it's your network, the ping extended. Try using mobile hotspots or any fast network.

[sumeshir26]

Did it ask you to put in a phone number?

[im-coder-lg]

Nah.

[im-coder-lg]

I just signed up with GitHub. Maybe that's a new safety feature, it'd try setting MFA codes, but you try with GitHub on a mobile or any other computer.

[im-coder-lg]

Alright, new guide!

1. Go to https://vercel.com/signup/email? and enter any email of yours. DO NOT CLOSE THAT TAB.
2. They'll send an email. Go to your inbox and open that. Click the button they give.
3. You'll get a popup that you are logged in, go to that signup tab and link your GitHub.
4. Et voilà! You are on your Vercel. This made me create another account too, but remember, there ain't passwords, it's login links.

[im-coder-lg]

Wait, are you using other services than Vercel? It didn't ask me any phone numbers. Don't Google the link, use the one I gave.

[im-coder-lg]

/ping @sumeshir26 did my guide work?

[im-coder-lg]

Whoa. Vercel didn't ask me any phone numbers. Have you tried waiting?

[im-coder-lg]

Have you tried all the mobile numbers at your home? I don't think Vercel ever needs phone numbers. It didn't ask me at all.

[im-coder-lg]

I think this might be with ProtonMail(check your image's URL). I signed up with one(yeah it's true I do have a ProtonMail) and it didn't ask me anything. Do you have VPNs? If not, try this: On your PC, try signing up and authenticate from your mobile, it might work.

[im-coder-lg]

Well, now it did lol. Vercel requested my phone number.

[im-coder-lg]

I am in my dupe account now. My OTP worked man, but for that I can't give my phone number.

[im-coder-lg]

@sumeshir26 does anyone in your family have a Vercel account? It could be that they registered the mobile number to them right? Have you checked Netlify too?

[im-coder-lg]

Wait. Let's go back the history track. When I used a Vivaldi Webmail account, it didn't ask me anything but when I used ProtonMail, it asked. So it might be the email. Try making a Vivaldi account. It will ask you for a mobile number but my signup worked in a few seconds. It has to be the email that causes the problem.

[sumeshir26]

Il try using neltify

[im-coder-lg]

Problem is, Netlify has a 100 GB of bandwidth. IDK if it's enough.

[im-coder-lg]

@sumeshir26 does Netlify work?

[sumeshir26]

Doing that now

[im-coder-lg]

Also, I am finding how to enable PR deployment previews. That can help us see a preview of the website in the person's PR. Vercel does it better, that's why I asked you for checking Vercel.

[im-coder-lg]

Make sure this is done, so that this can work.

[im-coder-lg]

Additionally(I said additionally, so please remember that), you could grant me access to the Netlify team, it always creates one at startup, so if you want, you could add me and I might be able to help you on deploy errors. They always redirect back to Netlify.

[sumeshir26]

you could grant me access to the Netlify team

@im-coder-lg Thats exactly what I was going to ask you because the build succeeds but it does not work.

[im-coder-lg]

Well, head to the Members tab, and add my Protonmail. Same username without dashes(imcoderlg).

[sumeshir26]

Now, its asking me for either money or an open source account, applying for one

[im-coder-lg]

Woah. Let me see that!

[im-coder-lg]

I'll invite you to my team, just to see that.

[im-coder-lg]

Well, it's true. You do need to pay. Try Vercel again.

[im-coder-lg]

This time, DO NOT USE your old email. Go to vivaldi.net and sign up. Give a mobile number, it will authenticate and then head to https://webmail.vivaldi.net and log in to your Vivaldi account. THen use that same email to log in. It will work.

[im-coder-lg]

/ping @sumeshir26 does this work?

[im-coder-lg]

I see that you installed Netlify. Go to Settings > Build and deploy and edit the Build settings. Change the build directory to docs. Make sure deploy logs are public so that I can inspect them. I will have to test some things from my end, so wait for my next reply, I need to fix deployment.

[im-coder-lg]

Also, two things:

1. Merge #41
2. Allow reviewer access for me. That's all for now.

[im-coder-lg]

/ping @sumeshir26 have you configured Netlify?

[im-coder-lg]

/ping @sumeshir26

[sumeshir26]

What do you mean?

[im-coder-lg]

I need the global URL, and I sent a permission from my Netlify to yours for joining as a reviewer. PS: It's free and unlimited.

[im-coder-lg]

No worries, found the URL: https://timerx-app.netlify.app

[sumeshir26]

Yay!

[im-coder-lg]

Also, about the reviewer access, did you receive it?
