Hi, there is something extremely weird happening. I looked into dashboard and found three comments definitely not written by me, shown as coming from me :S One I have already thrashed, but these two:

Submitted on 2014/02/11 at 9:26 pmhave definitely NOT been written by me. Strange thing is they do not show in the upper right corner. Could you tell me what is going on?
Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

sorry, i had to thrash these two as well, as they have been already approved :( could you please look into it? I start to worry that someone has hacked into my blog :(

The mistery is solved. But it raises another problem. Basically I checked my blog when I visited my friends and the system did not log me out. The comments were theirs :) So this is a relief, as nobody has hacked into my blog.
But the problem is this: I am pretty sure (although cannot be 100% of course) I did log myself out. Now my friend has told me he did log out, but when he accesses my blog – he is still logged in. I have noticed it myself as I have two blogs on different wordpress.com addresses – when I log out of one – I very often still have access to both of them. It did not trouble me as hey! it is even less hassle for me when moving between two blogs. But since it starts to seem that basically I cannot access my dashboard on computers not belonging to me it starts to look like a big problem. What do you think? Is there anything that can be done about it?

Hi there,
Can you take a screenshot of what you see when you click Sign Out from the main menu (top right) in the toolbar when logged into your account, and upload the full image to your Media Library?
Can you also try Google Chrome to see if you get the same result?
If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at Browse Happy please upgrade to the latest version.
If you are, please do these four things:1. Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies:
2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled
3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.
4. Try enabling HTTPS
Let me know how each step goes for you, and which browser (and version of) you’re using if you’re still having trouble.

Taking screenshot will not help as when logging out I never know whether the system will decide to log me out or not. It look exactly the same when it works and when it does not. This is exactly the problem. If I knew there was a system failure I would simply log myself out again.
Well, the suggestions listed above mean that I have to do all of this every time I am using somebody else’s computer. So if it is true – I would rather abstain from doing it. What do you think?
-
Well I would like to troubleshoot what is going on, but I need more information. I’m unable to reproduce your issue so I will need to know what’s going on.
It’s difficult to fix this without knowing specifics – for example is this a browser issue, our issue etc? This seems like a browser issue, so it would be best to pinpoint if it is indeed a browser issue. You wouldn’t have to do this every time – this is just a test to see what the issue is.
As for the screenshot, whenever it happens again, can you take a screenshot then and let us know?

Gracejiyoung you do not seem to understand the problem despite me telling you as clear as possible. I DO NOT KNOW whether the system has logged me out or not UNTIL I come back to it. Every time I log myself out the screen looks AS IF the sytem has logged me out. Only upon my return it turns out, it has not. So there is NO POINT in taking screenshots, although if you really need one – great! I will take one. Please tell me which screenshot do you think will be of help:
(1) when I am about to press “sign out” button?
(2) when I pressed it and the screen looks as if I was a logged out reader?
(3) when I come back and I am fully logged in – so the screen looks exactly as it does every time I logged in?Please let me know which of these will help you to pinpoint the problem and will happily oblige.

Right after you press sign out.
Did you do this ?:

I have inserted “printscreen log out” into my library. Could you tell me what HTTPS is and how I enable it?
