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.

Artief135ts: Thank you, corrected.
Darthjazzhands: Hmmm... I see no issue there. I just tested it and reserves are able to see the missions that are set as "recruits excluded".



Thanks Artie. Much appreciated.


Hi Artie
Sorry to bring this up again but I have more info now.

Looks like my original post was a bit hasty. The bug I described occurs with discussion threads set to "Wing Only Except Recruits." Those ranked recruit and reserve can not see those threads until promoted to co-pilot rank.

I duplicated the issue using an alt account and confirmed with two other members. Please double check and let me know what you find.

Thanks

Aha, I missed it is affecting threads before. Yes, there was really a bug. Please take a look on the thread settings, I have added another option to access control there (I do not want to change it retrospectively for all threads, as other wings may rely on the fact it was not visible to reserves, too). Thank you for the report and testing.

IPL VictimIron Phoenix Enterprise (faction) in Farwell is a player faction associated with the Iron Phoenix Legion wing.
https://inara.cz/galaxy-minorfaction/76574/
Please add some mechanism to the faction pages to report errors or updates.


It was set. The mechanism doesn't worth the effort, as the 'influx' of new PMF that slipped out of my attention isn't high and own player factions can be eventually edited by officers of a wing assigned to them eventually.


Okay, I look forward to eventually being assigned the ability to edit the faction. Eventually.
Thanks.

Just assign the faction to your wing in the wing settings, it should do the trick.

Jack DekerdtHi Artie
A few minutes ago (12 NOV @ 1621) I attempted to update my credits manually as I normally do at the end of the day. I can enter my new credits but the credits do not update. I logged out then back in and it did it again. Whenever you have time can you take a look? My credit balance should read 423,249,361. Thanks.


Ah, I needed to change something and forgot to change everything related. It should work now.


Appreciate the effort, Artie, thanks again

Yes, it is something I would like to add to the wing's PMF overview page (when made).

I'm probably missing something really simple and obvious, but how do I add a biography to my profile. I thought I had it figured out, but turns out I didn't.

On the logbook edit screen, look at the bottom of the grey box. There's a drop down menu marked 'Category'. Clicking on that should show a Biography option. Simply select, then save and voila!

Much obliged! I'll give that a try!

Hmm. I saw that option, "Character biography" and changed it. But I'm not seeing it show up when I click on Overview like I've seen on several other profiles.

I had the same issue. You won't see your own bio (unless you log out, that's how I checked mine). I see yours as https://inara.cz/cmdr-logbook/79941/24047/
