Friends;
When a user tries to log on using netscape, they are sent back to the main page after login. (Nothing unusual here.)
However, the little hyperlink at the top right hand of the screen that should now say LOGOUT still says LOGIN, causing some to chase their tails like a dog.
This doesn't happen in IE. It doesn't happen here ay moodle.com using netscape. I'm using 1.0.7. Is it an old bug and --yikes--is it corrected only with an update?
Thom
Hello Thomas,
it seems to be the same problem I posted above in the forum. Unfortunately I use the MS IE.

I don't think it's anything that was particularly fixed in 1.0.8, but so many things were fixed/changed that it's possible.
Strangely I just tried both of Thomas' Moodle sites using Netscape 4.79 on Windows, logging in as guest, and the front page worked normally (ie showing the logout link).
Were cookies enabled properly in your Netscape browser?

Hello All,
I use Mozilla 1.0.2 as my primary browser and I also continue to display the "Login" suggestion after login. Cookies are enabled and all functions as normal. All functions work as if I am properly logged in but I can see this causing some confusion for some visitors. "Login" changes to "Logout" when using IE5, no problem. Any ideas?
Thanks, John

Answer: As answered here;

What this means is: Change this line in config.php
$CFG->wwwroot = "http://mysite.com/mysite"; to:
$CFG->wwwroot = "http://www.mysite.com/mysite"; and login link updates to reflect logged in status
Thanks, John

"Thank you for your response Martin.
You are quite right on the first item. I used my site IP instead of the DOMAIN NAME, therefore when it set the PHPSESSID cookie, first for the IP then set one also for the DOMAIN, Moodle got a little confused. I changed "$CFG->wwwroot = myIP" to "$CFG->wwwroot = myDOMAIN" in the config.php and that sorted the login problem out."
***************************************
Also the link I provided in my previous post is obviously wrong. Martin had posted an answer at http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=567 (the correct link) that started the ball rolling. Glad we could help. This is a great app and a great site isn't it?
