This issue still confuses me; I've noticed that I get auto-logged on as a visitor even though I am a member; maybe because I ticked auto-
logon before I joined.
But how do I switch it off so I get auto-logged on as a member?
I managed to track down the log on form but it's near the bottom of the
home page so not very obvious. hence I'm manually logged in as a member now while I'm typing this.
Other sites have logon/visitor status switch on every page; can we have that? (yes I know it turns red if I'm logged on as a member, but we need an easier way to achive that log-on)
Maybe it's just me .. ?

Doug,It is meant to be very easy. All you need to do is logoff as a visitor using the logoff button in the
Orange Visitor Bar. This will make the System
Logon button appear again on the LHS of the page. Then hit the System
Logon Button and clear out the email address and password fields and enter your memberid and member password - leave AutoLogon turned on and hit
logon. Your computer will now
logon as a Member every time your return to the site.Due to system issues you cannot be logged on as a Visitor and Mamber at the same time so the key is you MUST logoff from your Visitor account before you can
logon as a member. Let me know directly if this does/doesn't resolve your issues. (Basically deleting the cookies will do the same thing but it is not the prefered way).David

Clciking on the email link to access the replies above seems to have logged me in as member, so I must have gone through the sequence suggested i.e. logoff as a visitor, then ensure I
logon as a member with the autologin box ticked.
All OK now, we can close this thread.
Thanks for responding , all.
