3) If you are logged into the old interface you cannot log out of the new one until you go and log out from the old one first. I thought relogging in my sync my data in both systems.


Hmmm... That's a side issue I hadn't anticipated, but you're correct. I won't address it because it'll go away on its own after the changeover.

What *should* be happening right now is that anyone who is logged in on this version of the site will find themselves logged in when they go to the new version, because I'm using a cookie that this version sets. It would seem that even if you log out of the old site, you're not really logged out because I'm still checking that cookie. I'm averse to clearing it lest it cause problems with access to this version.

My first task this morning will be to investigate what's happening with people showing as account level zero when they shouldn't be. It's not that they (we -- it's happening to me too) are losing their logged-in state. It's that the system is simply assigning them the wrong userlevel, and I think the cause just occurred to me as I was typing this.

Should be able to let you know in a few minutes if I was right.
