Log out problems

2
votes

Being a curious type of person, I clicked the "Spanish" button, just to see what the site was like in Spanish.

After I'd had a look around, I realised that my Spanish was nowhere near good enough to cope with this, so I tried to change it back, and I can't. The "English" button has no effect at all.

I've tried a computer reset, in case it's a problem there, but it hasn't helped. Please can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong, then I promise not to do it again!

Thank you for trying to help, Heidita. Yes, I'm still logged in. Even if I quit the site completely and come back, I'm still logged in. I expect I ticked a "keep me logged in" box at some time.

Quentin is possiby asleep, poor man - he's in a different time zone to us, and it is Sunday after all! There's no panic, as Seitheach said, I can always look on it as an additional learning experience.

I'd like to know which browser they are using and if it automatically logs them in? First, step I would recommend after logging out "salir" is to close your browser and re-open it and then see if you are asked to login when you return to this site. - 0074b507, Oct 25, 2009

Sheila, it takes you back to the home page, but are you still logged in? When you sign out, you are actually taken to the homepage. Is your name still there, as logged in? Strange...where are you Quentin?????

quentin knows most of this stuff, if he should not answer here, send him a PM.

HI sheila, click on "salir" right next to the name on the top right.

I'm sorry Heidita, but I am being very stupid here. When I do that, it takes me back to the Home page, but I still can't find a way to actually sign out. - sheila-foster, Oct 25, 2009

It worked for me when I clicked "English". You could take advantage of this opportunity though and see it for what it is..... another step towards full immersion!

You may try logging out and back in, but I really don't know what else to tell you.

I would, but I can't find the log-out button in Spanish - does anyone know where it is? - sheila-foster, Oct 25, 2009

I've sorted it out!

Gfreed's comment made me wonder whether my browser (internet explorer, by the way) was storing the information as I was never asked to log in to the site, so I deleted the cookies from there and - at last - I'm back to English.

In the perverse way of Womankind, I'm quite sorry now - being forced to use the Spanish site was an interesting challenge - but I won't change it back for a while at least!

Thank you all for your help.

Sheila, you've inspired me. I have now set mine to Spanish. Surprisingly (much thanks to Paralee) I can understand some of it.
