+James100 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I need some help with my log in page. Some how I have changed the page I end up at after I log in to an old cache site (one I visited in the past), instead of my "My Account Details" page. This only happens when I use MY computer instead of another computer so I think that this is a "cookie" problem. Can any one help me with this? Also I hope This goes into the "COOKIE" Topics but was unsure if I have done this correctly. Thanks JAMES100 Link to comment

Thanks JAMES100 You have stored a link to that cache page in your browser toolbar, Bookmarks/Favourites menu or desktop icon. When you are not logged in the site makes you log in before it shows the requested page. You can test this by next time writing manually the URL www.geocaching.com/my in address bar instead of using your quick link to geocaching site, it should take you (after log in page) to My Page. To fix the problem: Use browser's "Edit bookmarks" (name depends on your browser) feature to fix the link -or- Go to My Page manually and make a new link. Then remove the old link. Link to comment

Thanks, I deleted the short cut on my desk top and then put it on again and it works right now. Thanks for the advise. Link to comment
