can't confirm e-mail #29

Open a-gata-m opened 2 years ago

a-gata-m commented 2 years ago

The app works flawlessly, the only thing that I couldn't figure it out is how to log in into my account. The browser asks me to check my e-mail to confirm a new login, but when I click on the confirm link, it opens in my default browser (Firefox) and it does not confirm in the app itself. Perhaps i'm missing something?

I'm running it on Windows 10 x64 image

Hi, thanks for submitting the issue! I've never thought about that, I mean my account does not have this kind of protection... I will try to find a solution for that, for example making the app the default browser for bandcamp urls. At the moment a workaround could be: deactivating this email confirmation thing from your account inside Firefox and then trying to sign in inside the app. After that I think you can reactivate the protection again (from Firefox or via the app), but I'm not sure about that.

I managed to confirm my account using the developer tools by the window.location = (confirmation link) command, but hey that's not very user-friendly (if that's not a bug). Awesome app thought.

Default browser for bandcamp URLs sounds a great idea, because it not only may fix the confirmation problem, it will also open song/album links at the app itself instead of the browser, so I can very quickly open Mini Player or buy songs directly in the app.
