About This File

Linked Accounts allows your members to link one or more accounts then quickly switch between them. You have a full range of options about which usergroups can use the Linked Accounts system and which usergroups cannot be linked to. The POST AS feature allows the user with linked accounts to create/reply to a topic using a Linked Account. Each action is logged so you can keep a track of what linked account users do.

The Linked Accounts system could be useful for fan fiction forums, roleplaying forums, or just those of you with multiple accounts (e.g, John Doe, Administrator, Forum News).

Notes:

  • Linked Accounts is integrated to Login system of IPS4, so to control the number of failed logins, Reset failed login count (minutes) on ACP ->Login Handlers -> Login Settings.
  • This version contains an upgrader, so you can keep on using accounts created on this app for IP.Board 3.4.

It's a new skin that I'm working on myself, so I'm not sure why it's not showing?

It's hard to post a screen because it doesn't show up on it at all. On my original skin it shows but as soon as I switch over to the new skin it's not there at all. Perhaps you can take a look or tell me which code you need to see?

No, it's when you choose to have it show in the user dropdown. I am using 3.4.6, not IPB4. 

It works perfectly on my current skin in both navbar and user dropdown, but it does not show on my new skin.

this is the topic it sent me to when i clicked for support, but I will try to find the other. No need to be rude.

Anyway to allow members to not post as each other, and just have a linked account so:

Callum and Mike both have been linked on "Licensecart" but can't post as each other but has: Licensecart under their name or Mike@Licensecart, etc and the admin can kick me off Licensecart and it just has Mike again.

I'm having a problem with the 3.4 version. It's suddenly just stopped working after an update and would like some help troubleshooting please.

So i have a quick question before i purchase this...

Can users login with different account WITHOUT creating another email and signing up? 

I help manage a forum that deals in RP and this would be a GREAT addition if they did not have to create multiple accounts for each persona they may have. 

I see.

Bummer. Oh well.

Thanks for the reply.

it showed both the parent account and the linked account in Who's Online and Recently Browsing

My resource uses a core feature to log in on another account. It never dis anything related to widgets. If it’s not doing now what it did before, then probably IPS changed something in the widgets. I remember something related to it in 4.31 or .2.

Btw, widgets are cached so it takes time to update. It shouldn’t update right away.

Are there any known issues with the latest version of this app on IPS 4.3.6 and chrome?   

I just bought this app, and it works 100% on firefox.  But on chrome, after installing the app, the main navigation doesn't work as intended. 

The app installs fine, I'm able to go to my account settings and link an account fine but here's where I go wrong

For example on mobile - once the app is installed - simply opening the main mobile nav menu causes you to instantly be logged out of the site.

On desktop with the full desktop nav - trying to click on the "linked accounts" icon opens the modal for a split second, before it redirects to an error page for the app <board url>/linkedaccounts/accounts/   But this redirect only happens if you've linked an account.  If no accounts are linked, clicking the icon opens the modal correctly.   The "create" menu and the user menu both open and work, but the notification, PM and report center icons all end up instantly redirecting to the corresponding page for each feature instead of opening the modal.  So whatever is causing the linked accounts icon to not properly open the modal without triggering a page navigation, is also affecting the other 3 icons i mentioned. 

No JS errors thrown.  Running support tool and flushing the browser cache have no affect either.

IPS 4.4.0 was released on 02/21. I use it since then. The app version on 02/13 and it had a simple fix ina php file; the previous version was from July/2018, so I guess if it messed the board like that, someone would already screamed. I always used it on my live site when it was on 4.3.X. I didn’t notice any issue but I don’t use Chrome. I always used Firefox.

I also don’t see any support request with something similar to your issue.

Unfortunately I don’t have any board running 4.3.6 to even make a simple test. 

I've only installed in my my sandbox at this point because of the issue, so if you like I can give you access (or  @teraßyte can as well).   

P.S. I have replicated the issue on Safari/Mac as well as Safari on iOS.   The only browser I've been able to get it to work on is Firefox/Windows/Desktop (even firefox iOS app has the same bug). 

Anyway, just let me know if you don't want to look into it so we can arrange a refund.  The app is a useful utility, but I'm not going to be upset if you'd rather just cancel out the purchase instead of looking into it.

Does anyone still running IPS 4.3.6 and latest version of this app (3.1.5.2) to make a online test?

This is the weirdest thing.  I think we've narrowed it down to a conflict between Google tag manager (used to load Google analytics) and this app.  But we're still trying to figure out why the issue only shows up when this app is installed AND Google tag manager is enabled.  But doesn't seem to affect Firefox at all while affecting every other browser.

Will report back if we can figure out what the exact issue is

Hi @Adriano Faria I'm just wondering before I invest in this product.

 

Does this allow users to be linked to an account but can't log into the main account.

 

So example I could have two users under InvisionPower for example it shows their name Michael Dance then underneath it InvisionPower:

Michael Dance

I’m not sure I understand your example. Anyway, you can login in any account you link to and switch back to your account with a click in a link.

Say you link to John Doe’s account. Ok. But John Doe cannot link to yours just because you linked to their account. I guess this is your question?

Sort off.

Let's say for example you and me work together in a company. We have a company account and we connect both of ours to the company account. I would like to know if that's possible so we can show say the main account name? We work for Amazing IPB Plugins so that's the name of the parent account.
But when we post it says Adriano Faria - Amazing IPB Plugins

If you have linked accounts but you’re not using any at the moment, you have an option to create topics or reply to topics in a linked account behalf. If you’re logged in as a linked account then the topic or post will be authored by the linked account. 

Ok so this isn't a plugin I need?

Linked Accounts is preventing @HeadStand Newsletter app from running. Let me know if you would like some system logs.

Is that new setting changeable? I have not see that this is possible to change it in the application settings.
I just want to disable this setting, since it is always shows number "1" (one) as on my picture above, even if the user has more than one linked account, such like 5, 7 or 9 - it will always shows 1 😞

 

If you want to fix it now and don't want to wait for the time it may took to get approved, edit your theme in the template linkedaccounts -> front -> global -> linkedAccountsGlobalLink and find:

					{{$cnt = isset( \IPS\Data\Store::i()->linkdedAccounts[ \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id ] ) ? \IPS\Data\Store::i()->linkdedAccounts[ \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id ] : 0;}}

Change to:

					{{$cnt = isset( \IPS\Data\Store::i()->linkdedAccounts[ \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id ] ) ? \IPS\Data\Store::i()->linkdedAccounts[ \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id ]['accounts'] : 0;}}
