RE: Steem-Roller.com Investments Increasing as Project Development Work Continues!

in #steemdev6 years ago

Great work, very excited. I created a username same as my steem tag minus the @

Now when I try to log in with keychain, it says invalid PW (keychain is unlocked, I'm just hitting 'okay/confirm'). To be clear I'm entering my keychain PW in that case and it's different than Steem Roller PW. Could this be an issue because my ID is same as Steem ID?

Sort:  

Ahh. Yeah... So when you register if you used a username / password way it sets your account to be like that all the time.. If you register with Steem keychain then you always have to use that... You are likely onto something given your username is already your steem ID on keychain. good thinking.

In theory could allow both types of logins.. will take a bit of coding and testing though.. perhaps a way to change your username / password account login into a keychain login somehow?

I thought it was like a sub-account or something where I just transfer steem to and play with. Honestly, got a little confused when I saw keychain login, just thought that was something else to help with transfers. From my understanding my balance in steem-roller is separate from my balance on steem blockchain.

On Steem-Roller when you register an account with keychain it uses your Steem ID and then verifies that you have access to the private keys, makes an account from there.

You registered the old fashioned way and thus when you try and login with Keychain it tries to log you in with the password that would be fashioned by confirming access to your private keys and thus brings up wrong password (as password was already set the old fashioned way when you registered)

Your Steem-Roller balance is indeed separate from your STEEM account balance. Keychain is only used for login stuff at this time. :)

Ahh I see, and when I try to reset or change PW, it puts me in the same loop. Need a way to break out.
I have alts to play with in the meantime, but at this stage I'm just interested in breaking things (bug testing) by making strange choices.

Nice! Bug testing is good. Highly appreciate that!

if you're locked out of your account I can reset the password for you. Send me a message on discord if you like.

Thanks, not locked out. Also have no issue using a back up account or making another one, lol
