Re: Re: Customer info is shown to next user



If using openui, you could conditionally display a account button or a
logout button (if logged in) in the navbar from all pages.

Re: Re: Customer info is shown to next user



The invoice screen should automatically log you out, no?

So it only applies to the few scenarios where someone logs in on a shared
computer and doesn't complete the order.

Re: Re: Customer info is shown to next user



Shane,

How about you provide a logout link on the invoice screen?

Re: Re: Customer info is shown to next user



That is normal and FWIW it happens on many sites Miva and non Miva.
Anyway. why would anyone not logout AND share a computer with others? I
mean one or the other but both? If you set the browser to delete the
cache on exit it may fix the problem on THAT PC but I would hardly worry
about others going to the library and using the public computer then not
logging out as I have a hard time believing that too many people will do
that.

I just re-read your original post.

The "create new account" link just takes you to the account page. If someone
doesn't log out and someone else uses the same computer and clicks on the
account page it will show the account information for the person that is
logged in. That is normal behavior. You can set the timeout to a shorter
time so that he will automatically get logged out after 15 minutes or so.
