Login page
Last updated:
Translated from the Italian guide. Narciso itself is in Italian, so the names of buttons, menus and fields are shown exactly as they appear on screen, with a translation in brackets where it helps.
The login page is the first screen you meet when you open Narciso without an active session. Anyone who already has a valid session does not see it: they are taken straight to the calendar.
Contents
What it looks like#
The page is split in two columns.
Left column. On a midnight-blue background, six information cards scroll by themselves, with the text «FUNZIONALITÀ · 01 / 06» (FEATURES · 01 / 06) at the top. They are for illustration only.
| No. | Title | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Agenda intelligente (Smart calendar) | Appuntamenti, cabine e staff in un'unica vista. Riduci gli slot vuoti e i tempi morti (Appointments, booths and staff in a single view. Cut empty slots and downtime) |
| 2 | Scheda cliente completa (Complete client record) | Storico servizi, preferenze e formule colore sempre a portata di mano per ogni cliente (Service history, preferences and colour formulas always at hand for every client) |
| 3 | Cassa e incassi (Cash desk and takings) | Scontrini, pagamenti e chiusure di giornata sotto controllo, senza fogli di calcolo (Receipts, payments and end-of-day closings under control, without spreadsheets) |
| 4 | Promemoria automatici (Automatic reminders) | SMS e notifiche per ridurre i no-show e mantenere l'agenda sempre piena (SMS and notifications to reduce no-shows and keep the calendar always full) |
| 5 | Magazzino e prodotti (Stock and products) | Tieni sotto controllo le scorte e ricevi un avviso quando un prodotto sta per finire (Keep stock under control and get a warning when a product is about to run out) |
| 6 | Report e performance (Reports and performance) | Incassi, servizi più richiesti e rendimento dello staff in report chiari e immediati (Takings, most requested services and staff performance in clear, immediate reports) |
At the bottom six small bars let you jump to a card with a click.
Right column. At the top left is the Narciso logo and at the top right the link Serve aiuto? (Need help?), which opens a WhatsApp conversation with support with the message already written (see Support). In the centre is the form; at the bottom the links to the legal pages: Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Cookie Policy (see Legal pages), which open in a new tab.
The browser tab has the title «Entra in un mondo fatto di bellezza - Narciso.io» (Enter a world made of beauty - Narciso.io).
The initial choice#
The right column shows the text «GESTIONALE PER SALONI» (MANAGEMENT PROGRAM FOR SALONS), the title Benvenuto in Narciso (Welcome to Narciso) and «Scegli come vuoi continuare.» (Choose how you want to continue.), with two buttons.
| Button | Subtitle | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Accedi alla tua attività (Log in to your business) | Hai già registrato il tuo salone. Entra con il tuo account. (You have already registered your salon. Log in with your account.) | All the staff who already have credentials: it is the everyday login |
| Registra la tua attività (Register your business) | È la prima volta su Narciso? Aggiungi il tuo salone con un codice invito. (Is it your first time on Narciso? Add your salon with an invite code.) | Only the owner, once only (see Business registration) |
From both of the following screens the Indietro (Back) link returns to the choice.
How to log in#
- Press Accedi alla tua attività. «Accedi al tuo salone» (Log in to your salon) appears with «Inserisci le credenziali del tuo account Narciso.» (Enter your Narciso account credentials.).
- The form is blurred and covered by an anti-robot check. Wait for it to complete: it is usually automatic, sometimes it asks you to tick a box. As soon as it is passed, the blur disappears.
- Type the nickname (see below). The Password field stays closed until Narciso recognises the nickname: if the nickname does not exist no message appears and the password does not open.
- Type the password. The button to the right of the field shows or hides the characters.
- Press Accedi (Log in) or Invio (Enter). While it works, the button shows «Accesso in corso...» (Logging in...).
- If the phone number has not been verified recently, the SMS check appears (see Phone verification by SMS); if the VAT regime is missing, the tax configuration (see Tax configuration). Then you arrive at the calendar.
The nickname#
The nickname is the login name assigned by the owner in the staff card. It is valid across the whole platform and is unique.
- It is not case-sensitive; it can be typed with or without the initial at sign (for example «@mariorossi» or «mariorossi»).
- It can contain letters, numbers, full stop, hyphen and underscore, from 3 to 30 characters.
- It is not the email address: if you type an email, «L'accesso non supporta l'indirizzo email. Inserisci il tuo Nickname di accesso (es. @mariorossi).» (Login does not support the email address. Enter your login Nickname (e.g. @mariorossi).) appears.
- There is no «Ricordami» (Remember me) option. The browser may offer to save the credentials: it is a browser feature, not a Narciso one.
The Password dimenticata? (Forgot password?) link becomes clickable when the nickname is recognised (see Password).
The anti-robot check#
It is compulsory: without it, the form stays blurred. After a login error or when going back, it must be passed again. If it does not load (slow connection, extensions that block content), reload the page or disable the extensions for Narciso.
Error messages#
Errors appear as a red notification at the top.
| Message | When it appears | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| «Credenziali non valide» (Invalid credentials) | Nickname does not exist, wrong password or deactivated account (the message is deliberately identical) | Check the details; if they are right, ask the owner to check that the login is active |
| «Account bloccato per troppi tentativi falliti. Riprova tra 30 minuti.» (Account blocked for too many failed attempts. Try again in 30 minutes.) | Too many wrong passwords on the same nickname | Wait 30 minutes |
| «Dispositivo bloccato per troppi tentativi falliti. Riprova tra 30 minuti.» (Device blocked for too many failed attempts. Try again in 30 minutes.) | Too many attempts with nicknames that do not exist | Wait 30 minutes and check that you are not typing the email |
| «L'accesso non supporta l'indirizzo email. Inserisci il tuo Nickname di accesso (es. @mariorossi).» | An email was typed instead of the nickname | Use the nickname |
| «Non hai un turno attivo in questo momento: puoi accedere solo durante il tuo turno.» (You do not have an active shift at the moment: you can log in only during your shift.) | (Operatore) there is no shift under way | See End of shift |
| «Non è stato possibile completare la verifica del telefono. Riprova.» (The phone check could not be completed. Try again.) | The SMS check did not start | Log in again |
| «Errore di autenticazione» (Authentication error) | Generic error, for example server not reachable | Try again; if it persists see Internet connection |
Temporary blocks#
- The account block is tied to the nickname: during the block even the right password is rejected. Anyone who repeatedly gets a colleague's password wrong can block them for half an hour; if a colleague is blocked for no reason, it is best to check that nobody is trying to get in.
- The device block concerns attempts with nicknames that do not exist.
- The salon's staff, owner included, cannot unblock an account: you have to wait the time indicated. A successful login before the block resets the count of errors.
After logging in#
After logging in, Narciso links the device to the person and keeps the session data in the browser (see Session and logging out). If the business is suspended, the login may succeed but at the first operation you are taken back to the login page (see Login problems).
