Hello from Drôme where, today it is raining!

Never mind, a good time to plan future tours especially now that Corsica Ferries have only just released their schedule for 2027...

I have tried to log onto the voyager App but not having much luck.

I get to the lemmy.world server and log on using the same credentials as I do here but it doesn't recognise my information.

What am I missing or, is there a better application that can be used?

Thank you

Nick

    Here's how your friend needs to log in with Voyager:

    Instance: Yes, they need to specify europe.pub as their instance. In Voyager, when you add an account, there's a field for the instance URL — they'd enter europe.pub (or https://europe.pub/). That's how the app knows which server to talk to.

    Login credentials: They use their username and password, not their email. The username is the one they chose when they registered on europe.pub (the part before the @ in username@europe.pub). So if their full Lemmy name is johndoe@europe.pub, they'd type johndoe as the username and their password.

    So the two things your friend likely got stuck on:

    1. Forgetting to set the instance to europe.pub
    2. Trying to log in with their email instead of their Lemmy username

    That should get them in.

    I am going to try the summit application to see how I get on with that.

    Thank you for your advice.

    I managed!

    It appears that I needed to subscribe to Lennyworld and create a username and password then once this was accepted (email confirmation) I was in.

    Once there I could easily navigate to the forum.

    What I had done wrong before is assume that my username and password for bikersclubfrance was all I needed .

    Now..have to find my way around this application!

    Great, did you use Voyager or Summit in the end ?

    Summit but the result if pretty good.

    Voyager would also have worked had I realised that I needed to create a second account with lemmy.world.

    What I have ended up with is quite a nice looking application which I will simply use for this Forum (form the time being as I am sure that there are many other interesting communities to explore).
