Commanders having Elite from Epic games store with http 400 error
When you try to link your accounts, you may receive the http error 400 about expired tokens. It's an issue on Frontier's end that I cannot solve on Inara. Fortunately, the solution is simple - please give it a few days and it will start to work later (probably when the access token on their cAPI server expires). If the error 400 appeared later and it worked before, try to reauthenticate as said in the error message (may be just a regular reauth forced by Frontier). Alternatively, you can try to use the workaround below. If even that won't work, it's the problem described above.
Please vote for the issue on the official bug tracker: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/21258

Possible workaround: Try to connect the account while you are in the game. It may work.

Game data and imports not available for console commanders and PC players with Legacy game version
Inara supports only the Live game version (so PC Horizons 4.0 and Odyssey) since game update 14, thus all the game data on the site and the commander data imports work only for those game versions.

Hi, I'm trying to use the Logbook but I cannot turn on the verbose logging option as I am using a Mac and can't find the config file to edit, any ideas where to look ? I have tried and just can't find a file that makes sense for me to edit.

Aarrgghh

Hi, first of all, I love this platform: great job!

Second: Is there any way to put something like the "Spoiler" button as you can use on most forums? (You know, the tipical click-to-expand-content button). I'll found it very useful.

A sugestion: In the wing overview when you see the list of last comments on the command room and the general discussion, can you avoid to show the quoted text? Because if some people are in a discussion around a topic is quite common to see all the posts of the overview with the same text (the quoted text).

And a "bug": when you create a table and the length of the text is long, the table gets wider and wider and overflows out of the visible area of the div that contains the table.

Thanks!

PS. I know my English is not very good (or at least not so good to explain what I mean properly)... but I hope you'll understand me

Idea: (no idea if it's posted before) ...add search filter that excludes stations which are beyond X distance from entry to any given system.

Have had to do a few re-routes due stations being at some obnoxious distance of 100K+ Ls out... Sure, the distances are in hover-tip, but would be nice if one could exclude such stations right away.

For Mac it's probably located here (I will place it to the help there later):
AppConfig location (default): Macintosh HD\Users\username\Library\Application Support\Frontier_Developments\Products\PUBLIC_TEST_SERVER\EliteDangerous\Contents\Resources

Netlogs location (default): Macintosh HD\Users\Username\Library\Application Support\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Logs

Hello and thanks! Good idea with the spoiler tag, I will add it there.

Hmmm... yes, it will be probably possible to remove. I will see what I can do...

It will be really a bug, what table it is, please?

That's a good and handy idea. I will place it there in next update.

I'll attach you an image:



That is table with a Lorem ipsum text of 137 words in a single line, as you can see the table grows out of the container

(I confirmed that it happens on Firefox and Chrome)

Zaroca: Aha, so tables in user input, thank you for report! It's easy to fix, unfortunately I cannot upload any non-critical changes until next update, so for now I can only recommend to insert hard line breaks until fixed.

Hey folks. I have a constant WING notification attached to private discussion, however I have no discussion matters left outstanding :/

Pixel: Hmmm, it seems to be an issue with removed threads. It should be OK now for this case.
24 Sep 2015, 8:11pm
All gone. Thank you. I did think it might be something to do with a removed thread, we just started up and have been testing threads etc. thank you for your hard work in creating this site. it is AMAZING and we're moving out clan base on to here for future

Big thanks from the Pixel Bandits Security Force (Neto System)

Is there any way, at the moment, of having discussion threads locked to a certain rank (or above)?

Hi Artie

Can you add the Date/Time when a CG was last updated?
That would help to see how accurate the Information is.

Thanks

Hey Artie!

Fantastic work!

Do you have plans / is there any kind of API?

I would love to integrate Coriolis.io allowing users to load/edit their fleet and automatically sync with Inara if they are logged in, etc

Happy to help contribute to this! Is Inara open-sourced anywhere?

Cheers,
Colin

Pixel: I am glad you like it. Discussion thread access control is not there at this moment, but it's planned definitely.

Sarkos: Easy to do, I will add it there.

McLeod: Ah, wait, I didn't knew we have author of amazing Coriolis there! Nice work!
There is currently no Inara API and just very brief and future plans for it so far, also definitely no open source. But, it would be nice to have some integration between our tools for sure, we can discuss it via private messages. Do you have some idea already?

Artie and McLeod,

This sounds like a really good thing if you guys can get the two sites working together. I find both of them really useful tools and I use them a lot.
