difficulties loging in with known #14

from @kevinmarks

If I login with known it says "http://Known.kevinmarks.com" does not match the logged in user "http://known.kevinmarks.com/profile/kevinmarks".

I've had issues in the past with using IndieAuth logins and Known. Sometimes it's finicky and prefers the http://sitename.com/profile/username pattern and won't work with http://sitename.com.

I'll note that I've tried logging in with both: http://stream.boffosocko.com/profile/chrisaldrich http://stream.boffosocko.com and didn't have any problems/issues. I suspect that for multi-user installations, Known needs the /profile/username addition to distinguish which account to allow publishing to. If I recall OwnYourGram had issues like this in the past if you need advice on what the solution was.

Does Kevin have a multiuser installation? Perhaps he was trying to log in with one account while logged into another?

I have a multiuser installation, yes, but I am logging in as kevinmarks. With other micropub apps (quill, woodwind), logging in with the base URL and being redirected to the user URL works.

I can't find the issue from where this came up in other projects, but I think the conclusion we came to before is this:

You should use whatever comes back from the auth endpoint as long as it's on the same domain as what was entered.

dissolve commented 7 years ago

I've decided i'll add support but only if its on the same domain and the new URL has the same auth endpoint as the original one.
