Hi,
I have this problem when using roller version 3.0:
1. I open my weblog (theme == basic) and I do not see the 'edit' link
between the category name and the 'comments' link under every blog
entry (this is normal!)
2. I click the 'login' link (= last link in navigation tree)
3. I execute a valid login and now I see the 'new entry' page (still
normal behavior)
4. I click the link on the top of this page to go to my weblog once
again and now this page still shows me the 'login' link and does
not show me the 'edit' link under every weblog entry until I
execute a refresh of this page (ctrl+F5). Now I see the page in
the 'logged in' status.
The same happens in the 'logout' direction
1. When logged in, I click the 'logout' link on my weblog and I'm
redirected to the central aggregate page of the website
2. I click one of the links that point to my weblog page and I'm
redirected to this page that is still shown in its 'logged in'
status. Here again a refresh (ctrl+F5) puts this page back to
normal)
Can someone tell me what I have to do to solve this problem?
Well, there isn't really a problem to resolve. This behavior is
actually expected.
You're right, the behavior is expected but can you say that this
behavior is wanted? If it is, then, there's nothing to resolve. But I
think that we should try to make roller as transparent as possible for
its users and therefore, we should try to make it function without using
that extra refresh.

The reason this happens is because Roller is sending a 304 NOT
MODIFIED response for the 2nd, 3rd, etc times that you request the
page which tells your browser that the page has not changed. That's
why it appears that the page hasn't changed until you do a forced
refresh.
