I've never been able to get HN's OpenID login to work -- it used to work at some point, but when I log in, I just get the error message:
"Bad OpenID login."
If I log in to ClickPass first, it sends me to a screen where I can enter my HN username/password -- but when I fill out that form, I'm taken to < http://news.ycombinator.com/openid_merge http://news.ycombinator.com/openid_merge >, which just says "Unknown."
From this experience, I assume the OpenID support in HN is more of an afterthought than a real implementation.
- abraham 16y agoMy vanity Google OpenID never works anywhere but my domain and MyOpenID works with HN fine.
- yock 16y agoAt the risk of similarly being voted down, I'm experiencing the same error. Trying to associate an OpenID with my HN account results in a return of "Unknown" from the openid_merge link.
