Have you tried this: https://answers.netlify.com/t/common-issue-netlify-cms-git-gateway-email-not-confirmed/10690 works for me. And try switching your branch in config.yml from master to main.
That answer bridged the gap in the documentation for me - the last piece of the Netlify Identity widget authentication flow. It led me to the actual documentation, which does document a particular case although without explanation, that being: 1. Netlify free plan => cannot change email templates to change URLs to /admin => additionally add the Identity widget to the site root. I do not like where this is placed in the documentation. It is buried under Add to Your Site > Authentication instead of just Git Gateway. Furthermore, it does not provide explanation, or document 2. Netlify paid plan => change email templates.
For those using a simple GitHub backend and wanting lightweight auth I've added a docs section that might help with the same confusion I had: https://github.com/decaporg/decap-website/pull/64
related https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/3711
I am in the process of installing NetlifyCMS + Netlify Large Media and wanted to log a bit of confusion I am encountering in the docs around the
git-gateway
setup.My path
netlify-identity-widget
to integrate the into your site, but was not sure if it was already included in the NetlifyCMS JS and set up, since this was not mentioned in any of the previous docs for setting up NetlifyCMS + Large Media + Git Gateway./admin/index.html
page for NetlifyCMS. So I skipped this step, knowing that I could come back to it later.name: git-gateway
and enabled "Identity" in the Netlify admin. Then Ihttps://brooklynrail.netlify.app/workflow
https://brooklynrail.netlify.app/workflow
and got "Email not confirmed" 🛑Wrong turn, going back
So now I am going back to installing the Netlify Identity Widget in our CMS admin page, and have a few questions about the code on the readme:
global object
, is that needed in my site, or is that just an example?Recommendations for adding Clarity in the docs
I am taking some notes locally and am happy to submit a PR when this is all done. Here are some initial thoughts on improvements
