Summary

Troubleshoot login issues including magic link problems, password resets, account access, and session errors.


Having trouble logging in to Quotestack? This guide covers the most common authentication issues and how to resolve them. Quotestack uses magic link authentication, you receive a secure link via email that logs you in without needing a password.

How Magic Link Login Works

When you click "Sign In", Quotestack sends a one-time login link to your email address. Clicking the link in your inbox logs you in automatically with no password required. The link expires after a short period for security

Note

Magic links are single-use. Once you've clicked the link and logged in, it can't be used again. If you need to log in on another device, request a new magic link.

Magic Link Not Arriving

If you're not receiving the login email:


  • Check your spam/junk folder - magic link emails sometimes get caught by spam filters
  • Check you're using the correct email address - the one you originally signed up with
  • Wait a minute - emails can take up to 60 seconds to arrive depending on your email provider
  • Check your email inbox search - search for "Quotestack" or "magic link" to find the email
  • Try again - click the sign-in button to request a fresh magic link


Warning

There is a rate limit on magic link requests. You can request up to 5 per hour. If you've hit this limit, wait before trying again.

Magic Link Expired or Not Working

Magic links expire after a short period for security. If you click a link and see an error:


  • Request a new link - go back to the login page and enter your email again
  • Click the most recent email - if you requested multiple links, only the latest one is valid
  • Don't copy-paste partial links - make sure you're clicking the full link or copying the entire URL
  • Check your browser - try opening the link in the same browser you requested it from

Logged Out Unexpectedly

If you find yourself logged out without choosing to sign out:


  • Session expiry - for security, sessions expire after a period of inactivity. Simply log in again with a new magic link
  • Browser cleared cookies - if you cleared your browser data or cookies, your session will be lost
  • Incognito/private mode - sessions don't persist in private browsing windows. Use a normal browser window for persistent login
  • Multiple devices - logging in on a new device doesn't log you out of other devices, but each device needs its own magic link

Account Not Found

If you see a message saying your account doesn't exist:


  • Check the email address - make sure it's the exact email you used to create your account
  • Case sensitivity - email addresses are case-sensitive. Try the exact format you originally used
  • Different email - you may have signed up with a different email address (e.g. personal vs work email)
  • New account needed - if you've never signed up, you'll need to create a new account first

Team Member Can't Access the Account

If a team member is having trouble logging in:


  • Check they've been invited - team members need to be added by an owner or admin before they can log in
  • Check the invitation email - they should have received an email invitation with a link to set up their account
  • Verify their role - their permissions may restrict access to certain areas of the platform
  • Re-send the invitation - if the original invite expired, the account owner can send a new one from the Team page

Browser Compatibility

Quotestack works best in modern browsers. If you're experiencing login issues:


  • Use an up-to-date browser - Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Safari (latest versions)
  • Enable JavaScript - Quotestack requires JavaScript to be enabled
  • Enable cookies - session management requires cookies to be allowed for the Quotestack domain
  • Disable conflicting extensions - some privacy or ad-blocking extensions can interfere with authentication


Important

If you've tried all the above and still can't access your account, contact support with your email address and a description of the error you're seeing. We can check your account status and help you regain access.
