ORCID login issue

Open maurerle opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Whenever I click the Submit Button, which leads to https://joss.theoj.org/papers/new - I am signed out of ORCID.

Clicking "login using ORCID" again, directly passes as the OAuth token is still valid, but it is still very annoying. I don't know if anyone else experiences this, but I did not find a related issue so far.

I also find that I get signed out frequently, particularly if I try to work in multiple JOSS website-related windows. I haven't been able to resolve it myself, but I agree it's quite annoying.

Yes, I think this is related to the problem - when I open a link in a new tab, I am not signed in in this tab anymore.. Clicking the login button directly logs in without password as the OIDC/OAuth session of the authentication provider at ORCID is still valid..

Maybe this helps.

Browser: Firefox 128.5.0esr

I think this might be the root cause: https://github.com/openjournals/joss/issues/1428 (fix in the works).
