PDF & MP3 submission by composer seems broken

Post by pbird »

As a long time composer-contributor to IMSLP, I have uploaded ~23 pieces already.
Today, however, I was only able to create the New Work page (for "Wedding cantata").
When I tried to add either the PDF score or the MP3 preview, I worked through the normal process,
but at the very end there was an error message that I must first confirm my e-mail, before editing pages.
Now, my e-mail has not changed, and I have gone to Preferences and re-typed it more than once.
I have also logged-out and logged-in again, but can make no progress.

Is this glitch possibly related to the fact that I signed up for a paid membership today?

I would appreciate advice (or Admin intervention).
At present, the New Work page exists, but has no content.

Thanks for your time,
Peter Bird

Now (January 2018) these problems have been resolved, thanks to clearer instructions on the Composer Portal page.
Last April, I did not understand that "confirming" your e-mail means responding to an automated IMSLP e-mail with a URL link;
also, I never received those automated e-mails until after I designated "imslp.org" as a Friend in my e-mail spam filter.
