Rodor: Maybe this wonderful tool could be slightly more streamlined (IMHO entirely)?
Pls no, the beauty of Magog is in the complex filters.
However, mrkgnao could easily create a simplified secondary page for people scared by options. :P

Rodor: That's what I couldn't find out - how and where should I attach tags and what "Search" button (of two) should I triumphantly push... :)
avatar
Cavalary: Two search buttons?
*checks* Oh, you mean the fact that that row of 4 buttons is repeated both above and below the search settings? Same thing either way.
The two rows was a very early addition:
"Version 1.1.1, 30 May 2014:
* Duplicated the "Search" (previously "Submit") button so it is accessible both at the top and at the bottom of the form [suggested by Wishbone and phaolo]"

And I have no plans of creating a simplified version of MaGog, but if I did, I would call it "SisGog".

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 7.1.8 has been released with the following features:

* Split a region being monitored for regional pricing into two: "Northern Eurozone (DE)" into "Northern Eurozone (DE)" and "Netherlands (NL)"
*** Note: The reason for this is that Block'hood is not regionally priced in Netherlands.

Something has changed in the way GOG handles cookies. I don't know what, but it now ignores all the cookies sent to it by MaGog. Since quite a bit is dependent on cookies, I have disabled MaGog's updates until I figure out how to work around it (the few things I quickly tried did not work). So for now, no updates.

Ouch.. is it to do with the two step authentication?

Maybe one of the downloader developers might be able to help?

Oh, so that's you causing so much errors ~4h ago! :P I saw you. Uppercase your currency name. :) Example: US_USD_en

Did I guess right?

3-4 hours ago sounds about right, but my cookies are properly cased (I just checked the code to be sure), e.g. US_USD_en. Unless someone along the route modifies the cookie, but who could do that?

What does the faulty cookie look like? US_usd_en? us_usd_en?

P.S. My cookie code hasn't changed in months. Did you make any change today?

Both are faulty.
Maybe your vendors did update, or smth? We do changes concerning http->https redirects and they have separate cookies - maybe that's that.

I don't really have a vendor. I maintain my own virtual server, which hasn't changed in months either.

I too assumed it had something to do with HTTP/HTTPS. Now that you mention that they maintain separate cookies, I'm pretty sure that's it. I'll try to debug it tonight.

BTW, why do HTTP and HTTPS have separate cookies?

I meant vendors like third party stuff. (PHP version, NPM packages etc.)

Good luck!

I don't know why - but that is how it works in general. :P localStorage is also not shared between http and https (on browser side).
Although I'm not 50% competent on that topic I guess it's because of security reasons. Someone could take your session cookie with man-in-the-middle attack getting you to http site and he would read the cookie. Evil thing to do.

I tried everything I could think of and nothing seems to work. GOG behaves exactly as if I didn't set any cookie, regardless of anything I do.

You mentioned that you saw many errors. Just in case it is related, could you tell me what these errors were?
