When I access my site that's being managed by Sitecore, it's redirecting me and asking for Sitecore credentials. I have no idea why but obviously the main site should be viewable to public without needing creds.
Thanks.
This could be from your sitecore cookie still in page editor mode, To fix this add this query string to your URL:
?sc_mode=normal
This will update your cookie and no reddirect to login anymore
Assuming that you have a combined CM/CD environment and that this is specific to your computer or other authors' computers, it is likely that Sitecore is picking up on the fact that you were using the Page Editor in a previous session. When you are using Page Editor Sitecore will drop a cookie called website#sc_mode and set it to "edit". If you return to the page with that cookie set it will push you to the Login Page as it things you are attempting to edit that page.
To resolve this try clearing your cookies or using a browser in Incognito mode/Private Browsing.
If this is happening to other users I would suggest following Martijn's advice in the other Answer and checking your site definition.
Check your site definitions in the web.config and/or the sites.config in the /app_config/include/ folder. Most of the times there is some misconfiguration there.
Check the security roles set on your site pages. If for some reason access has been denied to the 'extranet/anonymous' user you won't be able to browse without being authenticated.

When we are trying to add our website URLs
https://taiwan.kisan.app and https://taiwan.kisan.in
in the Facebook advertisement.
We are getting the following error.
Invalid link URL Provided: The link URL https://taiwan.kisan.app used
in the Ad is invalid. Please use a different URL and try again.
(#2490193)
We are not able to understand what is causing this error
as our site has SSL and it can be browsed from the browser
without error.
The site is hosted on Apache, AWS EC2 instance and there is a load balancer before EC2.
How can we fix this?
You can use an URL shortener service like bit.ly to quickly resolve this. You can also have custom URL tag if you want. See Bit.ly Sign Up
You might try running your website through the Facebook Debugger:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
This tool was built to help to identify any errors that Facebook is reading from your website, and help provide information on what needs to be fixed to unblock your link.
From there, you can get help from your developers team or from the Facebook Developers team to make your website compliant and help our systems detect it as safe. Click the link below and select "Get Started" to open a support ticket with the Facebook Developers team (this option may not be available for all websites):

The error may also occur because the URL is already being used by another Facebook page –possibly a forgotten page, previous page, or an unofficial, unverified page that was created by someone else
Is it possible to change the admin url from /sitecore to anything else so that not anyone know the admin access url of site. If yes then how it can be done.
I don't recommend you to change admin url.
You can restrict access to Sitecore Client in different ways.
Please check official Sitecore document about restricting access to the Sitecore client interface.
https://doc.sitecore.net/sitecore_experience_platform/setting_up__maintaining/security_and_administration/access_rights/restrict_access_to_the_client
You should not change that URL. It will be better if you will split your environments into Content Delivery and Content Management.
Content Management should not be accessible for someone outside your company.
Content Delivery does not have /sitecore login page.
It means that if you will use correct architecture for your environment You will no have to change the url of login page.
Restricting access via IIS config is the way to go here, renaming the folder is not advised.
This might be what you're looking for:

Add to your redirect in the .config file as mentioned in the link. And remove the old one.
I am developing an application using Django 1.4. When I log into admin site in another tab in the browser, the application interface in which I am already logged in automatically logs out. Please help me in solving this issue. The browser I am using is Firefox. Thanks in advance.
Admin is also a user in django. So, you can't have more than one user logged in at the same time in the same browser, can you? Try the same scenario on facebook. This is what it is. You re fine, there's no problem.
On the side note, if you are just getting started with your project use Django 1.5.
Well you cannot log into the same website with different login ids simultaneously until and unless you dont use some plugins for this feature or you are opening different ids in the incognito window.
Since admin is a superuser(still a user), hence you cannot open a multiple django accounts in the same browser. One account will be logged out in order to open the other one. This is no issue. Happy coding.
The Django admin site is just another page of your Django main website. Say if you have foo.com, then foo.com/admin/ shows you the admin portal.
And we already know that two users cannot be simultaneously logged in to the same website from the same browser.
So, you can test on your foo.com site, being an admin user itself. Experience on the Django website for any user will be same, it doesn't change with user being a staff member or superuser. Only admin site has different permissions based on these factors.
In this case, you'll be able to use both the main site, as well as admin portal.
But if you really want to use different user accounts for admin site and main site, then you should either use different browsers or Private window in Firefox.
i am very beginner in web development and making my first project website. please help me i want to make a website in joomla 2.5. i want to use a login page to enter into the website because for the moment i want keep everything behind the door. only users with password will enter into the site. i tried to search on the below link but could not succeed.
http://docs.joomla.org/Screen.menus.edit.15#Internal_Link_-_User
please anyone help me.
alot of thanks in Advance)))
you can get this working by setting up access level of all your menu items as registered. Except the one you want to use for login page.
I would not recommend setting up access levels on your menu at this stage of building your site.
If all you're trying to achieve is that everyone has to have a username and password to get to the site, I would use folder security through your hosting control panel(CPANEL or PLESK probably).
Setting up Folder security here will mean users have to login to get to the site but the site can be built as if it were public.
Setting menu security in Joomla can lead to confusing beginner experience when items don't show and you can't figure out why.
I'm running a relatively fresh Django app that I haven't added much to. I tried to set up the admin (which I've done on plenty of other apps) to create some sample data while I build out the app, but whenever I try to log in with the super user account I created I get kicked back to the login screen.
When I enter incorrect credentials, I see the proper error message... I just can't get it to take me past the login screen to the admin when I have correct credentials. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to solve it? I'm at a dead end troubleshooting.
Check that SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE is not set while you are not using HTTPS.
Looks like your cookies are messed up. Please start with clearing cookies in browser. If it doesn't help you can also check if your cookies configuration for project is correct. List of settings for cookies configuration can be found here.
Use the below settings for the SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN:
SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN = "yourdomain.com"
