I am looking a journal submission website of a SAGE journal run with Manuscript Central. The login option via ORCID is gone, instead one can log in with "Web of Science (TM)". What fresh hell is this? This was running perfectly (almost) with ORCID, why does one now need an account with Clarivate (which I don't want to)? Is MC owned by Clarivate? @academicchatter
@ingorohlfing@academicchatter Totally agree! There is nothing worse than having to remember a different password for every single ridiculous journal......orcid log in was/is great. Although recently I experienced one (Elsevier?) journal which seemed to offer orcid login, but then stated that you first had to create an account with them, including bl**dy password before you could link it to orcid 😱 #DoWeNotHaveEnoughToDoAlready? #academicchatter
1Password just might be the tool for you. Remember a single master password and create a new one for each site you use. It integrates with all the browsers and mobile devices so you can sync your passwords wherever you use computing.
@Buxton_Vienna@academicchatter This was also the case with ScholarOne/MC as long as an ORCID login was possible. I don't know, but I guess there are legal reasons behind logging in first to then authorize an ORCID login. Technically, it cannot be that hard to directly use an ORCID login
