Syncing GOG wishlist/collection fails even when public

boddyboy

Hello,

My GOG privacy settings are set like the instructions pop-up, with the exception of the friend list which is set to "only me", which shouldn't be needed to view my wishlist or library. I've also set the drop-down box on the GOG wishlist to "Everyone". So everything should be good, according to the instructions.
Still, when I click on the GOG sync link on either Collection or Wishlist pages on GG.deals, I get an error banner and notification that my GOG wishlist/collection is private.
Please investigate.

Regards.

boddyboy Your GOG wishlist returns a 404 error. If you're sure you've made it public, you may need to contact GOG support, as it looks like the problem is on their end.

Hello,

I can access my wishlist and game library with those GOG-provided URLs, from a random computer where I'm not logged into anything:
https://www.gog.com/u/BoddyBoy_be/games

https://www.gog.com/en/u/BoddyBoy_be/wishlist
or
https://www.gog.com/u/BoddyBoy_be/wishlist

I don't know what mechanism your software uses to access them, but the pages certainly look publicly accessible to me.

Regards.

Hello,

I found the explanation.
There was a typo in my GOG account name, so it was trying to sync to a wrong account.
I corrected the GOG URL and now syncing works!

I don't know how to set this thread to resolved so I'll leave that to you. Thanks.

Regards.
