Current mood:	productive
Entry tags:	0.0.2, releases

IJlogin 0.0.2
This version doesn't care if you log in or out through the website or through the add-on. Much more laid-back, don't you think?

Tested on: Firefox 1.8.0.9 / 2.0.0.6 on WinXP, FF 2.0.0.6 / Flock 0.9.0.2 / Netscape 9.0b2 on Vista Home Premium (thanks, folks who let me know their OS!)

ETA:

Known bugs: Cannot set prefs, borks when opening a new window.

Bug reports welcome. Bring 'em on!

	OMG IT WORKS I LOVE YOU. I've been trying to work on it myself -- I needed to get around to upgrading Firefox for the new release of LJLogin (one of the many reasons I put off upgrading) and did so tonight. (Reply to this)

	First of all -- much love to you for creating this! I can't wait to get home and download & install it :) Second - ICON LOVE (Reply to this) (Thread)

	HAH! I have to send some icon love to you as well (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That was all aristoboule :) Did you miss this - appreciate_ij - last Friday? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	ladybug218 2007-08-03 12:42 pm UTC (link)
	Oh and randomly, I downloaded last night and installed in both Firefox and Flock and it worked like a dream :) Thank you!!! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	thank you! (Reply to this)

	miras 2007-08-02 12:51 pm UTC (link)
	Whee! Thank you! It works on FF2.0.0.6 for me, in case you're wondering. ^^ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	toejam 2007-08-03 02:02 am UTC (link)
	I was wondering indeed. Thanks for sparing me a testing session! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Its letting me switch accounts for Mac OS X on 2.0.0.6 release of Firefox. Though it won't let me change the password in the Preferences or set a default account. It won't even show my screen names in the drop down for either of them. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Alright further fiddling has revealed it no longer recognizes the user when I open a new window and when I try to log back in using IJ-login says:

IJlogin: Unknown username

Unknown username. Unable to request session close from InsaneJournal. Log out anyway? Cancel or OK

If I click either it'll log me into whoever I was trying to log in as.

If I go to insanejournal.com, it'll just fully log me out.

Again, using Mac OS X with 2.0.0.6 release of Firefox.

I didn't say this before, but thanks for doing this. Its still a lot easier than having to use the website. I just thought you'd like to know what bugs I'm running into.

	toejam 2007-08-03 02:06 am UTC (link)
	Oh yes, I definitely want to know about bugs. Now that you've said it, IJlogin is doing the same things on my install. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for letting me know! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhi_silverflame 2007-08-05 08:00 am UTC (link)
	And upon further fiddling, I'm getting the same, or similar, issue of getting logged out when a new popup window comes up (say, the "preview post" dialog, or when I'm adding something to my del.icio.us account), under both Firefox and Flock in Vista HP. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	rhi_silverflame 2007-08-02 04:08 pm UTC (link)
	So far, it seems to be working just fine in Vista Home Premium, running Firefox 2.0.0.6! Thank you muchly! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	rhi_silverflame 2007-08-03 05:18 pm UTC (link)
	Also, aside from the preferences menu bug, I've now managed to install and run it with no trouble in both Flock 0.9.0.2 and Netscape 9.0b2, both in Vista Home Premium. Will install and test it out on the XP machine later today, as well. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	ardath_rekha 2007-08-02 11:28 pm UTC (link)
	OMG thank you! I've been trying to get it to work forever. :D Kudos on figuring out the trouble! (Reply to this)

	squeaky 2007-08-03 11:55 am UTC (link)
	Are you the one developing this, if so I'll keep you in the loop, we are currently in the process of getting the site up to the latest code base. As soon as I get a couple more bugs worked out, I will start an open beta of the latest code. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	toejam 2007-08-03 01:15 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not so much developing it as tweaking LJlogin's code to work here, but yes, that's me. Awesome on the site updates. Thanks you. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	cheezdanish 2007-08-04 03:44 pm UTC (link)
	Hi there, trying to get the login, and it keeps downloading to my machine as a movie file which automatically launches Quicktime when it hits my desktop. Unless you're trying to sneak me porn, I'm very confused. XD (Reply to this) (Thread)

	toejam 2007-08-04 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	Heh, no porn here, sorry. (Do I hear a feature request? ;) That's weird. Try this if you haven't yet: click here, but instead of clicking the "Click here to start download.." link, right-click, Save Link As ijlogin-0_0_2.xpi. Open that file from the Download Manager. If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll look for some less ad-tastic file hosting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheezdanish 2007-08-05 06:58 am UTC (link)
	Ugh. Yeah, still not working. I got it as a .xpi file this time, but Firefox didn't recognize it as an extension and I couldn't open it. Does this file type not work with Macs? 'Cuz...that's what the 'Danish is runnin'. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	uofmdragon 2007-08-05 06:50 pm UTC (link)
	It worked for me on my Mac. What I did was I downloaded it to my desktop. Open Firefox, went to the menu bar, clicked on File, went down to Open File... found the file on my desktop, and selected it. I was able to install it that way. Hopefully that is able to help you out. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	strongestgirl 2007-08-09 08:39 pm UTC (link)
	It's not working for me either. I'm on Windows. /cry (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	strongestgirl 2007-08-09 09:04 pm UTC (link)
	In an effort to be more helpful... When I try to open it from the downlowad manager, it tells me it can't open the file because it doesn't know the program that created it. When I go to the File menu in FF and select it through "Open File..." it gives me the following error... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	This is awesome, thanks! (Reply to this)

	freckles42 2007-08-16 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	It's awesome, thank you so much for tweaking it for us! I was starting to realise I was going to need one for here... adds it to the bar where it can join it LJ and GJ friends :D (Reply to this)

	bzzinglikeneon 2007-08-17 07:17 pm UTC (link)
	You have made my month. Maybe my year. Thank you SO MUCH. (Reply to this)

	titti 2007-08-17 09:35 pm UTC (link)
	Does this work with the LJ and GJ logins or do you have to pick one? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	bzzinglikeneon 2007-08-18 02:32 pm UTC (link)
	I've got both LJLogin and IJLogin on my status bar. They can both be logged on independently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	titti 2007-08-18 02:43 pm UTC (link)
	That's great, because the LJLogin and the GJLogin don't seem to get along. Thanks for the information. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lena 2007-08-19 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	You need the newer version of the GJ one, then, which is linked in comments in the LJ Login community on LJ (and, I think, at the top of this community?). I've got all three running fine on Firefox 2.0.0.6 under Mac OS X 10.4.10 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	titti 2007-08-19 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Oh thank you so much. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	deena_s 2007-08-17 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	tried to download, but won't open it up, saying there's nothing to open it with it...is my computer dumb? also, is there just a plug-in for the LJ version or is there a way to make it all work with IJ as well? (Reply to this)

	bzzinglikeneon 2007-08-18 02:36 pm UTC (link)
	I'm on Firefox 2.0.0.6, and everything seems to be working like a dream, EXCEPT! When I click the "preview" on the Update Journal page, it logs out to Unknown User. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks again! (Reply to this)

I'm sorry to be a bother, but I was just wondering if it'd be too much trouble to upload it to another site? I'm having major problems getting Mediafire to work for me, though I would really love to use IJLogin (I found the LJ one so helpful, since I maintain more than one account on both sites). *hopeful*

This is awesome, btw. I'm really pleased it's been adapted to work over here. :D

	Scrap my previous comment - I finally got it to download. Phew. :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	This is great, thank you! (Reply to this)

	macalaure 2007-09-07 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	Maybe I'm missing something really obvious but I can't figure out how to install it. I've downloaded the file from mediafire but I can't figure out what to do next. If I click on "Open" it says that Windows cannot open the file, and it wants to know what application I want to use to open it with. I'm using Windows XP and Firefox 2.0.0.6 (Reply to this) (Thread)

	toejam 2007-09-08 05:02 pm UTC (link)
	Try this. If that doesn't help, let me know and I'll see what else I can do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nosselinfea 2007-09-08 07:43 pm UTC (link)
	Ahah. That worked, and the program works beautifully! Thankyou! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
