This is not about the edible sort of cookies, so if you came to this thread hoping to read about VV giving away free cookies, you'll be disappointed .... This is about the sort of cookies that your browsers like to nibble on.

I've made a change to these cookies so that they can work on the whole of the veggieviews.com domain, not just the forum part. (Are there other parts, you might ask. Not really, not quite yet, is the answer.)

A side-effect of the change is that you may experience a slight problem when attempting to log out. Well, logging out won't work. Of course, usually, there is no reason to ever log out, but for the 0.1% of you who accesses VV from shared computers / devices, this might pose a problem.

The way to solve the problem is to clear all your VV-related cookies. Just make sure you remember your password before you do this. Or if you have forgotten the password, at least make sure the email address associated with your VV account is working.
