While creating the new challenges, noticed a small nit. When entering the start and end dates, I normally clink on each field to bring up the calendar display. The first of the next month normally displays so I can just click on it to populate the Start Date and avoid typos. As for the End Date, the end of the next month doesn't show so I would click on the down arrow (not the left or right arrows) just to the right of the Month name. That used to scroll the month down to the next month where I could click on the last day of that month for the end date. Now, it acts just like the left and right arrows where it pops up a window with a list of months and years that I have to click on for the desired month and then click on OK just to get the month to display. Not sure when this changed but I believe it predated these two changes. keithhenry, The team challenge calendar feature is working as it should. Once you have clicked in the Start and End Date fields, the calendar pops up. The right and left arrows take you month by month. Clicking on the down arrow, next to the month and year displayed, will bring up all 12 months and additional year options to choose from. Can you please further explain your comment 'As for the End Date, the end of the next month doesn't show...'? When you click in the End Date field, the same calendar feature should pop up, which allows you to choose the date. Thanks, ErikaT |

Thanks for trying, but I hope the staff is not exaggeratedly proud of the linguistic mess of this page. Comment valid for all non-English versions of this page. English readers who want to understand what I mean will quickly see it by selecting the Chinese or the Japanese language on the Download page. We are aware that the website needs re-translating. We are waiting until we get more of the work (re-branding, etc.) done first, before we tackle the re-translation. Thanks, ErikaT |

In Chrome, the buttons work as you describe. In IE8, the left, right and down arrows all work like what you describe for the down arrow. With IE9, I couldn't get the calendar to pop (I'm working on getting my machines to Win7). As for the end date comment, I was just saying that the current month calendar normally displays the first day of the next month too so I don't have to change months in the calendar. With the end date, I do, that's all. |

I've just been presented with the Log In page despite the top line on the Log In page saying Sign Out Hi tonyh205 etc.
 .I had 4 WCG tabs open (My Statistics, Device Manager, Results Status, Forum List Recent Threads). I had refreshed the Forum page without a problem, then refreshed the Results Status tab but received the Log In page instead. After logging in, I was presented with another My Statistics page instead. Is there a rational explanation for being asked to log in while apparently still logged in, or is there a bug? I'm using Firefox 29 with Session Manager and HTTPS-Everywhere, if that makes a difference. |
