Register User Without Spamming Them With "corona Cloud" Stuff

Yes Once you sing up you can go to Settings under your app and go to Export Data. They will provide you a link where you can download all your data. Also in Corona under Code Exchage there is code that can help you.

Hi @snowboardb10 ,

How would you integrate Parse with CoronaSDK?

Thanks!

Hi Landon, I believe there is a lua library in the code exchange for Parse, I’ll see if I can dig it up for you.

What are you trying to use Parse for? 

Thanks

Hi mohamed,

Thanks for the reply.  That would be great if you could find the Parse LUA library.

I am trying to see if CoronaCloud is better than Parse or vice-versa.

All I need is:

-Adding/Removing users

-Chat systerm

-Saving locations

-Saving times and dates

Thanks!

-Landon

It’s in the network section of the code exchange, also linked to from the parse website. I would love to use Corona Cloud but let’s face it, it should still be in beta and not announced to the public yet. Dave

thedavebaxter do you believe that Parse is a better choice?  I just want to know your opinion because I am still deciding because my app is a Travel/Social app.

Thanks in advance!

-Landon

Am in no position to make a decision for you, not really got the experience of eiher to be honest.

Am only looking at Parse because I need a custom DB hosting and was going to go with PHP/mySQL solution, then someone on here mentioned Parse and I took a look.

Hi Rob,

Bringing this back to your workaround suggestion above of using appname+playername@gmail.com for user registration. I have tried this and the registration fails with the message “email: should be in an email address format (ex. someone@somewhere.com”. Seems it does not like the + sign in there.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Clark

Hi Clark,

I’ve just tested it and it works fine, can you please PM me the email and password, and I can test your account for you.

Thanks

Hi Mohamed,

I’m having similar problems. Any time i try an email with a + in, i get “email: should be in an email address format (ex. someone@somewhere.com” returned to me as the error. 

I’ve tried it with 10+ different passwords and usernames and none of them worked. The email was structued as:  appname+username@hotmail.com.

Any ideas why that could be happening? 

Thanks!

Hi Mohamed,

Thanks for the reply, I have PM’d you the details but as TandG said, I have also tried with with several combinations and get the same validation error on all the them.

Glad I’m not the only one getting this. :slight_smile:

Hi everyone,

What seems to be happening is that the email is not being URL Encoding.

We’ve updated the corona-cloud-core.lua  https://github.com/coronalabs/corona-cloud-core to encode the email.

Please go ahead and get the new one and let me know how it goes.

Thanks

-Mohamed

Update: Thanks qwertier, fixed it!

Hey Mohamed,

The link should really be https://github.com/coronalabs/corona-cloud-core I think everyone will get it, but just in case :wink:

Qwertier

Hi again mohamed!

I can now register with a + in the email, so thanks :slight_smile:

But now i can’t login using that email, i’ve tried with various others but no luck. Is this also something to do with encoding? 

Thanks again!
