I'm working on this script and making another variation for the monthly magazine version but I think the login portion of the script is not working and I'm not sure how to proceed because it seems to have the correct field names.

I put in a working feed and stripped down the default DiscoverMagazine recipe so it would just [try to] log in and do no filtering. The raw output of the ebook it produces shows Sign In/Register so I know the log in portion is not working (there is probably an easier way to check this but I'm not sure how). Below is the stripped down version I used.

Registration on the site is free so you can make one if you don't already have a login.
