Being logged in, and out, at the same timeWhen you're building anything but the simplest site you're likely to be faced with the problem of seeing what the public view of the site is, whilst needing to be logged in to make changes. You could keep logging out and back in again, but that's time-consuming and tedious. So here's three ways to be both logged in and out, at the same time: - Use two computers!
- Use two browsers on the same computer so login with Internet Explorer and be logged out with Firefox. (Login status is maintained by cookies, and they aren't shared between browsers)
- Use two domains set the site to listen on two different domain names, and login to one of them. (The login status cookies work on a per-domain basis)
Whichever method you use, having multiple monitors to work with makes life a lot easier too! |
