Hi! I'm participating in Hacktoberfest 2026 Week 1: Touch Grass.
My DEV account is already connected to my MLH account. In DEV Settings → Account, I can see MLH connected, and the email addresses match.
However, my Hacktoberfest participant dashboard still shows “Connect DEV account” as incomplete. Clicking the button only takes me to DEV Account Settings, where the MLH connection is already present.
My DEV username is @yadavrachana458.
Could someone please check why the Hacktoberfest dashboard is not recognizing the connection?
Thank you!

I'm facing the exact same issue. My DEV account is already connected to my MLH account, but Hacktoberfest still shows "Connect Dev acc".
Has you issue been resolved ?
yes, all you need to do is signout your Hecktobeast account and again do connect to dev account it will be connected after refereshing. or video by DR abhishek in youtube.
Thanks for the help. It actually got fixed the next day
