Yup. Logins are a known problem--and are referenced in the forum post. – Pixielo, on June 18, 2008 14:22

Not getting the popup happens a lot when a mission brings you to a site where you log in, and are logged in, and the site has a special "dashboard" or "home" page for users than it does for the general public. Twitter, for example, is twitter.com, but redirects you to twitter.com/home if you're logged in. That's caused problems with more than a few missions I've taken. The solution for that kind of thing is to log out of the offending site.

As far as I know, the colon does create a problem. Try to find the html break code for it and replace it with that.

I couldn't find the relevant forum topic on this but I know one exists

Mission lightposts don't work on URLs containing colons

I am trying to add the URL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Lu... to a mission; it lets me lightpost it from the toolbar, but I can't add that lightpost to a mission. I suspect this is because the URL contains a colon, and therefore that it would affect all Wikipedia system pages and Wikimedia/Commons pages as well.

Run out of lightposts while creating a mission=bad

If you run out of lightposts while creating a mission, there's no warning or anything, the buttons just stop working. It still says you have 1 remaining, but you really have zero, and you have to go buy some and reload the mission generation page to continue.

Read more doesn't work when testing a mission

When you're testing a new mission, "read more" links in the lightposts do not work.

Make PMOG popups ignore page CSS

Is there any way to except the PMOG popups from the CSS of the page? When mission lightposts or portals come up on their colored backgrounds but with the text and links colored and backgrounded to match the CSS of the page, sometimes they're unreadable.

Make it easier to get to mission queue

Make it possible to bookmark/direct link to my queued missions, or put the queue in the toolbar.

URLs ending with anchors don't work

If the URL ends with an anchor (like #top) it seems like lightposts (and mission steps) won't work
