Love it, but got tripped up on landing page.

Suggest:
In order to get access to your Firefly III installation at http://firefly:8080, you will need to submit a valid Client ID. This is a number.

Be changed to:
In order to get access to your Firefly III installation at http://firefly:8080 or a VANITY_URL {replace with ($VANITY_URL if exists)}, you will need to submit a valid Client ID. This is a number.

But I do see that if you do happen to have a VANITY_URL set it will say:
In order to get access to your Firefly III installation at http://firefly:8080 ($VANITY_URL) , you will need to submit a valid Client ID. This is a number.

The issue is that if you don't, you have to dig through the documentation...

Hey, thanks for starting this discussion.

Well, that is what the documentation is for. What happened, exactly?

Cheers,

It's more of a user experience suggestion. If you just blindly enter the client number, it of courses uses firefly:8080 (the default) and throws a domain name error. On the page giving instructions about where to get the client id, I just thought it would be also helpful to mention the VANITY_URL as a hint where to look in the documentation. Again, just a suggestion, nothing's "broken."

Indeed. I added some instructions, they will be visible in the next release. Thanks for the suggestion!
