Screenshot of how the page appears

When I go to orionhub.org while logged in to my Chrome browser profile, I'm immediately redirected to the editor, but it shows 'undefined' at the top, and none of the controls work.  The menus drop down, but clicking on them doesn't work.  When I look in the console, it shows that a bunch of resource requests bounced back 401, and it can't find indexOf undefined.

This happened before I actually signed up with OrionHub.  When I'm not logged in to Chrome, it works fine.  When I use Firefox it's fine, although I haven't tried it logged in there.

It seems as though the browser sends the message from the client side that I'm logged in (perhaps with my google account?), and so I'm redirected to the editor, but the session with OrionHub hasn't been properly initialized, and so nothing works.

I have a feeling this may not be reproducible by someone who is already logged in with proper credentials.  This happened the first time I tried to use OrionHub.  I then used FireFox and was able to complete the sign-up process and so on.

Usually when this happens, it's because your plugin information (which is stored per-browser in semi-persistent local storage) is in a bad state. This state is supposed to fix itself after a while, but sometimes it needs encouragement.

Try navigating to orionhub.org in Chrome and perform the step described here:

Seems to be working now.
