There is a feature that was recently added which is the ‘Edit Password’ upon saving a generator that isn’t yours (you are remixing another person’s generator). It is for recovering/saving an edited generator without logging in (or those users that are having trouble with saving generators since the email verification is having problems).

Steps:

  1. Click edit in the generator you want to edit.
  2. Upon saving, and opt to create a generator (since you can’t save a generator to an account since you are not logged in), it would then give out a ‘edit password’. Remember/Save this generated string as well as the newly created URL (not the original one).
  3. Later on (as long as the local storage is not cleared) you can navigate again to that newly created page (while still not logged in into an account) then enter the edit password after clicking save to return back/apply your changes to the generator.
A video demo of how it works.

    @perchance@lemmy.world I have some suggestions for the feature:

    • There should be a confirmation dialog that tells the user that the generator is going to be saved even if logged out to avoid accidental saves.
    • There should also be a “delete generator” option for those saved-on-logout generators for the same reason too.
