Why can't I log out?

[dirtymonkey]

I tried to log out last night and found I could't. Clicking on the log out button just takes me back to the topic list, is it so I spend longer on mn because I don't get anything done all day as it is!
I only wanted to log out for a little bit, I will log back in honest!

I still can't log out, it is a beautiful day the sun is shining and I'm still stuck on mn!

Hi there, I'm not sure if you are joking or not, but logging out just means we stop automatically filling in the name and password boxes when you add a message (and it also stops some links like "threads i'm on" from knowing who you are). It doesn't hide the topic list - you can read that and all the messages without being logged in. Cheers, Tech.

my threads in on still shows up when ive clicked LOG OUT tech..so i havent logged out at all! And I dont need to reput in my name/ password.

That is odd charliecat. Could you click "Log out" then go to www.mumsnet.com/TalkTestPage and put "CharlieCat" in the box and click "store" - then I can have a look at what's going on.

[charliecat]

ok. ive just done that .............BUT i clicked threads in on to get back to the link........LOL so still logged in, even though i logged out.

[charliecat]

so ive just done it again by copying and pasting the talk test page...... but im still signed in and if xp decides to look at my MN page ive had it, so please fix

[Tech]

Hello Charliecat, Strangely, I can't see any record of you clicking "log out". Can you do it again and then click "threads I'm on" again and I'll watch what's going on. Thanks.

[charliecat]

oh , well its worked now and i didnt click anything.......i had to sign in to post this....i did start a thread on this yesterday....

[charliecat]

now dont laugh but ive just clicked log out, then threads in on and im back here posting........not having to log in..

[charliecat]

if i log out, and shut the window i have to sign back in........

[charliecat]

right, not sure what your doing, but if i dont hit the keep me in for 30 days, the log out works, BUT only once ive shut the MN page down.
If hit the keep me in for 30 days i dont log out at all ever, until that one time just now...to make me look like a liar

www.mumsnet.com/Talk?topicid=1375&threadid=363202&stamp=070729121402 and i started this yesterday....right going to mow lawn....

[dirtymonkey]

still isn't working for me either not too worried about dh reading my posts, he already knows how addicted i am but if always i'm logged in anyone else can know who i am on mn too

[Tech]

When you are back Charliecat can you do me a favour and click "LOG OUT" again in the blue bar, then go over to the test page and click store again. Thanks.

[charliecat]

I am!!!! Oh......no im clicking log out on the My talk bar................ok will do

[charliecat]

its ok, if i click on the log out on the blue bar i log out, all working fine..............
my screen does fit that in....have to scroll to the side to get it...whats the log out on the talk bar then???

[Tech]

D'oh that's our fault. That link (log out on my talk bar) wasn't doing anything. That's why I was so confused and couldn't see that you'd logged out. The "magic" one earlier was me testing. I've fixed the link now so it should be OK. Thanks a lot for your help.

[Tech]

When I say "our fault" I mean "my fault" of course......

[charliecat]

take the wrath lol. Sorted now tho I guess.. Cheers, everyone else fixed?
