Still having issues with Facebook. :(

I did some more digging and discovered that Meta is restricting Facebook login to business accounts. Parf Edhellen isn't a business, so this forces me to remove Facebook as a login option. ☹️

For those of you with existing Facebook accounts, I'll support you in transitioning from Facebook to one of the other providers we support. I'll also (and with great hesitation) implement a username and password system for those of you who might not have an account on our now-shrinking number of authentication providers. More information will be made available soon.

This is just bad news. 😔

This is a major update from 7.43 to 8.0!

• Removed Facebook as a log in option because they require a business account and we are not a business. To reclaim your account, log in with one of the other social media for which you use the same e-mail address or create a new passworded account with the same e-mail address through the Sign up page. You can thereafter link your new account to your Facebook account and migrate all of your previous data over to your new main account.
• All accounts now require e-mail verification! You can still log in to your account but to contribute to the community or to change any account security settings, you need to verify your e-mail. Press the Resend verification e-mail button when you are prompted.
• Replaced the Dashboard with your profile. The dashboard is no longer available and you will have all menu options available on the left-hand side on your laptop/computer and in the top menu on the phone.
• Fixed an issue where ads were blocking the rendering of the search field.
• Fixed unclickable dictionary reference links in Sage.
• Fixed avatar size when looking for content in Discuss.
• UI/UX polish.

New exciting Teleri & Noldor themed backgrounds will be coming soon for your profile.

• The reason why a new version was created of the gloss is now listed in the gloss version page.
• Fixed some compatibilities issues with latest version of our underlying frameworks. For the tech savvy, refactored our dependency injection framework to eliminate circular dependencies and made global events connector injectable.
