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.

Working with our site pages formatting question:

Is there a non-printing character best used to create space between text in excess of one space?

The (underscore______) works (sort of) if the character color is #2c2e2f, but it has a dark shadow under it.

Any way to make truly empty space in a line of text?

Sorting by date on DAILY BATTLE REPORTS https://inara.cz/galaxy-thargoidwar-conflict/1/30643/ is not accurate, it seems to sort by first number instead of date

Not at the moment. Do you can provide me some example where it is needed, please?

Thanks, I will fix that.

Have you tried   it's an HTML no-break space. Lets see if it works    here.

I feel like several pictures disappeared from my gallery....
Maybe I missed something, but I could swear entries were deleted or disappeared.
Most of these were made over the last year and some of my favorite ones were among them.

Look at our front-end Overview page wing #514 for an example where some force formatting space could benefit.
Also be handy to force widths in tables.

I tried that one guys HTML suggestion thing - $nbsp; - but I can't get it to work in the page body, I might not know the correct format for it's use. Does it need some sort of brackets? I'll try again.

Yes, some images (without likes, not used in the logbooks) may be removed over time, as mentioned on the gallery image upload page (there is simply a ton of images, so some pruning is necessary).

I see.... well, this is exactly the usage I want to avoid. Although you made it nicely, so it works on various screen resolutions, other users may use it more extensively and then wonder why it break things. Hard spaces for the formatting like this simply sucks and that's why I do not want to add such option there. I may however add some "invisible" table option (no borders, etc.) which is more flexible and will work on various resolutions more reliably. I will think about that.

Yes. A no-boarder table option would work.
Actually ideal, as that would solve another aesthetic issue.

My automatic updates of Frontier data have been queued for about 24 hours, is this normal?

Definitely not. There is a lot of journals waiting in a queue for a week. I am not exactly sure if it's Frontier's server issue (due some preparations for Odyssey) or due their troubles with assembling journals with a high amount in-game relogs (caused by the recent community goal with the material farming). I am waiting for the Odyssey release this week to see if the situation will return back to normal after that or not. Meanwhile, please just click the Import Frontier data button to perform a manual import.

No problem.

How does the import of financial data work. I've been logging my own credit balances and thought that they would all verify after a manual import but that isn't the case.
17 May 2021, 2:44pm
Yeah, it currently doesn't confirm the manual entries if the latest credits/assets amount doesn't differ. I have however made general improvements how are credits recorded and this will be deployed in two days (it will confirm latest manual entries made, etc.). So you can either wait or just have the credits updated by imports.

I logged on this morning 0430EST and the servers were acting slow... My guess is preparation to Odyssey
