Scoutbook tells me my email doesn't exist anymore - edit: use this instead of the Scoutbook website?

I can log into my.scouting.org. I had a problem a month or so ago where I couldn’t really log into Scoutbook as it thought I was using two email addresses. That was fixed. My daughter was recently added and we were linked, but now I can’t log into Scoutbook at all as it tells me my email address doesn’t work.

Are we perhaps not using Scoutbook anymore? It looks like advancements.scouting.org and discussions.scouting.org replicate everything Scoutbook did.

Edit: After looking around, these forums seem to be Scoutbook, but reskinned. So don’t use the Scoutbook website anymore?

@BartHumphries

Are you using your my.scouting.org ID to log in to Scoutbook? This ID is not an e-mail address.

Legacy Scoutbook is still needed for many functions. Since you are registered as a Troop leader, you will use legacy Scoutbook for most functions except the calendar and editing a profile.

@BartHumphries If your daughter is a Cub Scout, then you should be using Scoutbook Plus (advancements.scouting.org) for most things. Advancement tracking for Cub Scouts has been moved there.

@edavignon I tried logging in with my email address and it told me:

Please login using your my.Scouting Username and Password

@JenniferOlinger Good to know, thanks!

@BartHumphries

Your ID is NOT an email address. It is the same ID/PW you use for my.scouting.org.

Try to log in via an incognito window if you are still having trouble.

@edavignon I don’t type in my usernames/passwords on websites. Chrome remembers them for me.

It is working now, but earlier when I tried logging in with my my.Scouting username and password, it told me my email didn’t exist anymore, and then when I tried with my email it told me I should log in with my.Scouting username and password. Neither one worked.

It is working now, but I know I’m not doing anything differently because I don’t type those things in, Chrome does. While the website is working now, something was wrong before.
