Clicking on Plugin on /plugins takes me to "Sign Up" page

This is not an actual bug. Here's what's happening:

  1. You have most likely viewed a bunch of plugins in your browser.
  2. Then, you signed out.
  3. You went to powr.io/plugins and clicked on a plugin.
  4. Instead of taking you to the plugin, it's sending you to a login page

The Volcano "Recover Plugin" flow stores a cookie in the browser to take the user back to the plugin they were previously working on whenever they go to standalone. This is great for the user because they're not losing any of their work. Yay!

However, if you follow the very edge-case-y steps above, you end up in a strange place. Why? BECAUSE YOU LOGGED OUT. If any random person on the internet could edit a plugin that was just created by a POWr user, that would be pretty bad. So, log in or clear your cookies and you're good.
