mrkgnao: Does not.

That's related to something else, a field called isAvailableInAccount, which is set to false for 5 games in the catalogue:
- Armello
- Nekro
- Satellite Reign
- Shadow Warrior 2
- Worlds of Magic
All of which do not display in the wishlist.

HypersomniacLive: I suppose it's a glitch or oversight, as other TBA games can be added to one's wishlist?
The odd thing is though that before the NAS, both the games I mentioned were in my wishlist.
Before the NAS, the wishlist scheme was different and not so dependent on the catalogue.

I have no idea whether this is intentional or not, but five glitches sound a lot me, so I would guess it is intentional, though the intention escapes me.

mrkgnao: Do you mean that the red game update notification number is visible when you are on the home page, but not when you are on the account page?

HypersomniacLive: I mean that after logging in and before visiting the front page, no notifications whatsoever are visible.
I now have the opposite. I need to visit the front page to make notification flags disappear (e.g. for forum replies I have already read).

That's why I also mentioned "oversight" (in place of screw up), as there doesn't seem to be any logical intention behind such a choice.
Does MaGog show the prices for these five games?

I need to visit the front page to make them appear, and then revisit the front page to make them refresh. I think it's the same issue, and you just don't experience the first part of it because you stay logged in.

Yes. Of course. Except Nekro, since MaGog only deals with games that have a game page.

Which draws my attention to another thing all five have in common. All five currently do not have regional prices. I believe this might be the reason they are marked as they are, for the pricing information is not yet finalised. I expect once the regional pricing is defined they will become more visible.

Other TBA games (currently "Crypt of the NecroDancer" x 3) already have regional prices and accordingly can be viewed in the wishlist.

UPDATE: On re-examination, I may be wrong, for StarCrawlers can be viewed on the wishlist and it too is still without regional pricing.

Look at that, this is exactly what I had in mind when I asked the question.

Looks like the implementation of HTTPS is still messed up. While everything works fine with the HTTP version of the site, the HTTPS version shows me that i'm logged out despite actually being logged in and being able to post / edit.

HTTP and HTTPS are different sites, so your session won't be shared between them. Just don't use any HTTP parts of the site to avoid this.

The switch happens everytime i click on 'community'...(which isn't surprising considering that all tabs on the top bar are only HTTP except for 'account'. Well atleast it's that way for me)

And when i only used the HTTPS site i always had the 'sign up/log in' prompt even when logged in.

Edit: But it's working now.

Edit 2: Interesting. The tabs are only HTTP when i'm in the forum. Otherwise all of them are HTTPS...

I use HTTPSeverywhere to fix this mess. Just write your rule for GOG like this: http://pastebin.com/Cr3tngLp

See instructions here: https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere/rulesets

In short, create a file called gog.xml with content of the rule (http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Cr3tngLp) and place it HTTPSEverywhereUserRules directory (which should be created in your Firefox profile directory if you use Firefox).

Did that. Restarted Firefox but it doesn't work. It still switches from HTTPS to HTTP...

Edit: nvm...apparently it works now.

Thank you.

Since recently, comments in the wishlist section started converting end-of-line and angular brackets into uninterpreted HTML br tags and gt lt literals.That's pretty messy.

I did wonder whether it might have broken during an attempt to fix https://www.gog.com/forum/general/so_this_is_interesting

Yeah, seems to coincide in time, so most probably related.
