Glitch in login procedures

Posted by Robin on 2 June 2009 8 Comments

Several people commented in Angela's article on Masculines and feminines yesterday to note that they had difficulty logging in and had to enter their data more than once for it to "take". I wrote about this (annoyingly intermittent) glitch shortly after we moved and noted that it was on my list of things to fix, but since it isn't fixed yet, I'll repeat it here: if you log in and the page doesn't show you as logged in — that is, you enter your data and don't see the "Welcome" box instead of another blank "Login" box — don't worry: unless you saw an actual error message, you're logged in. You don't need to hit refresh or do anything else. If you want to be sure, you can hit the small "login" button on the widget a second time without entering anything, and that should refresh the screen.
