You're losing users right there if it doesn't redirect back to your site after account verification.
- StavrosK 14y agoI don't think they can do that, unfortunately. Verification is done when you create a BrowserID account, so it'll never happen again, no matter which site you go to next. You'll just get logged in.
- callahad 14y agoYeah, that totally sucks. We're working on it. Support for post-verification redirects should land in production in ~2 weeks, IIRC. There will be an announcement on the Mozilla Identity blog when that goes live. (Sorry to threadsit here!)
- StavrosK 14y agoActually yes, now that I think about it, you can just include the referring site in the verification link and redirect back. That will be very handy and help with the visitor drop-off problem. I'm really hoping Persona takes off, especially with widespread browser support. Will it still need a third party service then, or will everything happen in-browser?
- lobster_johnson 14y agoAlso, in the step when you enter a password (to create a BrowserID), the second field is called "Reset password". What's up with that? Should it not be something like "Password (confirm)"?
- callahad 14y agoOur translation files were messed up. The fix should enter production on Monday: https://github.com/mozilla/browserid/issues/1905 https://github.com/mozilla/browserid/issues/1905 Thanks!
