Alter Ego Detector

Unmaintained Alter Ego Detector 1.7.8

No permission to download
Ensure that the login process doesn't error in a user visible way when an alter ego is detected and an intended reporting method is not properly configured.

Server Error Logs should now be more descriptive of what actually broke when failing to use a configured reporting method.
Bugfix for when the Report Centre is redirected to a forum.
Ensure reports for Alter-egos of Alter-egos work better.

For example; given 4 accounts.
two_reports.webp


5 accounts, but generating a reference between xon2 -> xon4
three_reports.webp


Now what the 'xon2 has 2 alter egos!' report looks like:
report_view.webp
BugFixes:
  • Updated missed thread & PM title to include both usernames.
  • Issue with whitespace being added to the wrong spots in the .xml file, causing some options to break.
Known bug:
  • Reports for Alter Egos of Alter Egos are not being correctly stored. I will hopefully have a fix within a day or so. This is a fairly old bug, and is the result of silent data truncation.
I'm pleased to take over development and support of this addon from @Liam W.
  • New option for cookie lifespan.

  • Only 1 report per alter ego pair made
  • Handle account merge/deletions
  • View alter ego report permission
