Ifixit login/logout anomaly (bug?)

Text:

Hi @jarstelfox

Previously when logged into Ifixit Answers and then opening another window for Ifixit Meta, I found that I was then also already logged into Meta.

Now when having logged into Answers and opening a Meta window there is a Log In link on the Meta page and when clicking on it I’m logged in automatically without a user name/password being required.

When logging out of Meta, this logs me out of Answers as well. However when logging out of Answers I’m still left logged in on Meta.

I’m fairly sure that before when logging in/out of either Answers or Meta it also did the same to the other.

I sometimes have both open in case I need to report spam ;-)
