No "register" option on admin page

[dube920]

Just got plexrequests set up, went to localhost:3000/admin but there is "don't have an account? register" option like there should be to create my admin account. Literally stuck and can't actually use plexrequests because there's no way to create my admin account.

I did the exact same thing. It just keeps saying Login Forbidden. How do we create the admin account?

A new install today on ubuntu and I am seeing the same issue as above.

[andrewouellette]

I redownloaded from the “releases” section on the site. Repository version has issues.

Works fine now.

I can confirm that I cloned the repo and could not find the register button. I tried installing release 1.21.2 (latest) and found the registration button. Thanks, andrewouellette, for the tip.

Coming back to add that the above worked. Thanks for the reply andrewouellette.

how exactly do I do this? i'm not too familiar with git.

I did docker-compose down && docker-compose rm -f then downloaded 1.21.2 and did docker-compose up but I'm still not getting the "register" link on admin. Do I have to do anything else?

@simonwistow I'm having the same issue right now. Did you figure it out?

[simonwistow]

@krestaino I didn't sorry. I just used Ombi instead

Here's a workaround : go to the admin page and paste the following javascript in the adress bar :
javascript:$('div.at-signup-link').removeClass('hidden')

This will display the register link and should allow you to login

Just to add to @ey3ball reply, in Chrome under macOS, I've had to type it into JavaScript console (View->Developer->JavaScript Console).

Another workaround is to inspect the page and navigate to the at-signup-link hidden element and make it visible. See screenshot attached.
