 * I have no idea how to get this working.
 * I’ve been through the wizard. I get to the verify screen. It does request an 
   authentication. I do the slide up on the phone but then it sits there saying ‘
   Processing’ forever. On the Launchkey app it remains as a status of Pending.
 * Forever is a long time to wait for the verification.

 * I wonder if there is a firewall issue. What ports does Launchkey require?

 * The LaunchKey API calls out on port 443 to api.launchkey.com and back on the 
   port associated to the URL you specified for the callback URL in the LaunchKey
   Dashboard.
 * Are you using Easy Setup or the configuration Wizard?

 * I used the classic Configuration.
 * Hmm, port 443 (SSL) (inbound) is forwarded to the correct server so that should
   be ok.
 * The certificate on the WP site is self-signed. Would that be an issue?

 * The website makes the call, the Launchkey app get’s the request and presents 
   the authentication. I complete the authentication but the website never receives
   it back. The LaunchKey app log also has it listed as pending.
 * It seems the website never receives the return authentication.

 * I tried Easy Setup. When I scan the QR code via Launchkey, Launchkey tells me
   I have a Network Error. It doesn’t work.

 * Looks like there is an issue is with the Launchkey service being down. Right 
   now it won’t even authenticate from the website to the mobile app. What kind 
   of service is this??

 * Oh. It looks like there is an issue is with the Launchkey service being down.
   Right now it won’t even authenticate from the website to the mobile app. Now 
   I’m afraid of depending on a service that may or may not be available!!!

 * I apologize for the difficulty you are having. There is a known issue with Easy
   Setup and it will be deprecated in the upcoming release this week. I reviewed
   our monitoring and log systems and cannot find any instance of down time in that
   time span. Could you please elaborate on your experience of not being able to
   log in so that I can research further. Did you attempt to login to Dashboard,
   [https://dashboard.launchkey.com](https://dashboard.launchkey.com)? Where in 
   the process did it fail, could not submit form on Dashboard, did not get authorization
   request on mobile device, could not respond to request on mobile device, responded
   to request but the Dashboard never logged in?
 * In response to your earlier question, we will not successfully make a callback
   to a site without a valid certificate. Unfortunately, that would allow for man
   in the middle attacks against our customers. If your browser requires a your 
   to manually accept the certificate as trusted, our system will not be able to
   complete the webhook callback to inform your plugin of the user’s response to
   an authorization request.

 * Got to [https://dashboard.launchkey.com/login](https://dashboard.launchkey.com/login)
 * Enter the user name and click log in.
 * Notification pops on the mobile device (it didn’t do that in the earlier issue
   I was telling you about)
 * LaunchKey opens then the app puts up a dialog: Network Error 50405 : There was
   an error connecting to the LaunchKey servers. Please try again.

 * Okay, this is a bad error message for a fairly uncommon event. 50405 means that
   your device tokens are out of sync with the API. To prevent an attacker from 
   being able to clone your device and authorize as your device. The device tokens
   can also get out of sync when network errors occur as you experienced earlier.
   This issue can be solved one of two ways. 1) Uninstall the application and re-
   install. 2) Unlink the device from the Unlink screen on any device linked with
   your user account and then link the device again. Number 2 is a much cleaner 
   way of executing the process but number 1 tends to be easier.
 * I have identified some long API response times during the time you mentioned 
   and will have our network services team investigate further. tHank you for reporting
   the issue.

 * Well I tried option 2 but then it kept telling me the unlink code was invalid(
   even though it was copied and pasted. GRRR
 * I then completed and relinked via option 1.
 * I agree with the original assessment that requires the certificate to be issued.
   I’ll get that done then we should be ok.

 * Ok although it was working. when I try to use Easy Setup it is corrupting things.
   I scanned the QR code then I get the network error and again, even trying to 
   login from the dashboard again I get the same 50405 issue.
 * Maybe this technology isn’t robust enough to use let alone trust as the only 
   means of authentication. I don’t want to lose my website.

 * Ok. I’ve installed an issued certificate and stayed with classic setup and run
   through it. This time the website received the verification just fine. So Looks
   like it all worked correctly. Now what? How do I use it? How do I apply this 
   to over site users as well? Feels like after configuration there is nothing. 
   I tried logging out and back in but it required a password authentication. It
   didn’t generate a Luanchkey authentication.
 * Geez this is complicated!!

 * It should not require any more setup for your account. The other users will need
   to link their WordPress account with their LaunchKey account. Which version of
   WordPress are you using?

 * But nothing happens! It doesn’t work even for my account! It says there’s an 
   error because I didn’t enter my password.
