🚨 Info for Patrons having login/verification issues 🚨 (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone,
There’s a recent bug that may prevent you from logging into my website. If you see this error:
{"error":"access_denied","error_description":"Please verify your email address through Patreon before logging in."}
then you’re affected by the issue.
Unfortunately, the bug is on Patreon’s side, so I can’t fix it myself. It seems to be affecting all creators’ websites that use Patreon login.
Thankfully, one of our patrons (huge thanks to Bob!) discovered a simple workaround that seems to fix it:
Go to your Patreon settings and change your email address (even temporarily).
Patreon will send a new verification email to the new address. Click the link to verify it.
Once verified, you can switch back to your original email — and it should still work.
Hopefully this helps anyone who’s been stuck with this problem!
