  I tried this too, and I got a message that told me I needed to log on to be able to do so… but I was logged on!

  I’m having a lot of trouble too. I got a 404 error when I logged in, then suddenly I was looking at my profile with an image from last winter. crazy. are all your uploads in your profile? All my patterns are gone that I uploaded. Hmph. Oh, and one more thing (I’m obviously complaining to whomever will listen, forgive me): didn’t there used to be a message board in my profile? :DD

  Firefox 3.0.11 and Mac OS 10.5.8 … I picked any Project I liked (ParaNoire’s Urban Pirate Vest II this time, although the previous time it was something else) and tried to Favorite it… told me I am not logged on, but I can quite clearly see that I am, and when I redo the logon procedure, I still get the same message.

  How do I add a project that has no “add to favourites” button? http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/orange-tunic-with-shorts – no button there

    I found a lot more projects which don’t come with an “add to favourites” button e.g.
    http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/jacket-and-top
    http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/baby-blue-trousers
    http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/baby-blue-t-shirt

  I can’t add a project as a favourite either. A window came up that said “you can’t use this feature unless you are logged in, press cancel ore o.k. to log in” I was logged in! But I pressed the o.k. buttonto log in again – nothing happened! I am currently using Mac OSX 10.4.11 and Firefox 3.5.1

  Hi!

  Same here, can’t favourite anything. I tried several projects from different members, but not a single one worked. I’m always told to log in. Mac 10.5.7, Firefox 3.5.2

  P.S. Also posted in another thread, before I found this one, sorry…

  I also can’t get the “add to favourites” button to work. The button initially doesn’t appear for a project. If I look at one of the alternate pictures for the project, the button appears but doesn’t do anything. If you click back to the original picture, the button finally appears again, but when I click it tells me I should be logged in (when I am). I am using Firefox 3.0.13 with the latest version of Mandriva One Linux.

  I still can’t add favourites but now I get the same error everyone else gets (You need to be logged in to use this feature. Click ‘OK’ to login or ‘cancel’ to resume whatever you were doing.) I’m using Firefox latest update and XP and I couldn’t add http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/collection1

  I’m on Firefox on a Mac and when I try to add “Contour Bust Dress and tute” by Miasu, it says that I can’t add it because I need to log in (but I already am logged in). Hope you can help!

  Thanks!

  same here— do you still want more specifics? i’m on a mac, 10.5.7 (guess i need to update there), using safari 4.0.1. i couldn’t add either:

  http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/sexy-back or http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/jersey-dress-with-pleats

  both have “favorite” buttons— i just get the you-must-log-on dealio.

    Hi Galatina,

    Can you tell us which projects are the ones showing that issue?

    Will help us a lot have those links for testing.

    Thank you.

    Hi Luislavena,

    There have only been a few and I haven’t kept a note but the only one I can remember was the infinity dress link:

    Hope that helps.
