Why do I have to be logged in to edit the list of stocks?
- mstefff 18y agoIf you were to change the stocks without being logged in, once you navigate away from the site, the symbols would be lost, and I felt users might be annoyed by that. Registering literally takes seconds too.
- Stabback 18y agoYes, but that is seconds users do not want to take. I'd advice letting them edit it, but have a small notification at the top letting them know that it will be lost without an account. Cookies are unreliable but they may help.
- mstefff 18y agoThat's a very good idea and I'll definitely consider implementing that soon. Thanks.
- crescendo 18y agoYou can temporarily store the user's list in a cookie if they're not logged in.
