the logins are actually working. That particular error happens when someone tries to login, without entering the email address. I need to make it a userfriendly error instead. Thanks, this one is a known issue. I'll have that bug fixed up shortly.

If you do register a new user account, and login as that user, you'll see it works.

thanks,

So here is a summary of the problems:

- Accounts are being shared across all E4E websites - not good.
- When you have an account, and use the send password, it always says invalid email
- When you try to log in wth invalid account you get that error message about AND "email" thing from first post


I already acknowledge a bug in the login form, which still needs to be corrected. The main purpose of the account area, is so that you can capture email addresses. It's a functionality that we're building upon for automated emails in the future. I appreciate you helping us to improve our system. These are the kind of things that we try to resolve while the system is in beta ;)

I'll post an update here once that login code is updated. Just an fyi, the login doesn't actually control anything, so there is no security risk, it simply presents a my account page which links to Amazon anyway (requiring it's own secure login) .

The login form is going to be revamped shortly, I'll be sure to post back here when I do.

edit: Your answer to why share login forms has to do with some principles of software as a service, and multi-tenant software design.
