I'm using Roll20 on a Mac via Firefox. I have created a user and logged in, but when I click on a Roll20 invitation hyperlink sent to me by a friend it just takes me to a page that says "Not Authorized". I've tried on Safari with the same results. I was logged into roll20 on both occasions. What do I need to do to get it to work?

Ask your friend to send you the link from the table that has the word 'join' in the URL.  This link is shown to the GM every time they load up the table.  That should work for you.

Hi, thanks, I've just checked and the link does have join in it. I think I'll try turning it off and on again, again...

Join links will change if the GM boots anyone from the game, this is why it is best to get fresh links from the table.  If you get a fresh link and it still doesn't work, we'll start working on troubleshooting the situation.

Did you try an LFG listing (but disabled so it is not showing) and give him the link to it? This would allow him to post to the game's lfg forum and you could click the blue button to invite him which will send him an acceptance notification.

A fresh link did the trick thanks. We are both new to this and I don't think either of us realised these links were individual per player and somewhat 'fragile'. Thanks again
