Wiki: Unable to confirm when signing up through OpenID
Posted: 17 Nov 2013 18:29
Hi,
I noticed an error on the wiki and signed up for an account in order to correct it. I used my Google account as OpenID; registration process was quick and smooth.
However, I am still unable to edit! Editing requires a confirmed email address on the account. But my account does not have an email address. I tried to add an email address but I am asked to enter account password. Hey, I signed up through OpenID and have no separate password for the wiki! Similarly, I can't go for "change the password" either.
I can't also sign out and click "recover my password" as it requires an email address set on the account. Which I am unable to add for lack of password.
Catch 22.
Any admin to help?
Many thanks!
