Full Version: Why does browser Incognito mode still keeps MyBB login?

Hi,

I'm trying to test my MyBB forum using multiple test users at once. If I use a 'private browsing' or 'incognito mode' window in my web browser, it still remembers my login, even if I open a new 'private browsing' window.

Why is this? Is there a way I can make it stop remembering the login? I want to test 3 users at the same time with 3 separate windows.

Cheers!
Incognito mode is the same session even if you open multiple windows of it. Install a second browser, then you can have 4 sessions. 2 normal and 2 incognito.
it'll only keep the login link it won't keep the cookies.

Normal and Incognito modes don't share that information, and that behavior is consistent across most web browsers. All information is being purged after the last private window is closed (i.e. it's being shared between tabs and windows).
Sorry.
My mistake.
