Why does my website automatically choose a host for online customers? :confused: Is there a shut off for this? Surely you dont have to have just 1 online show going at a time.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance Diane : )
 
Your browser is caching your choice from before. This also means that your customers can't choose someone's show to order on, then decide to go back and look at the outlet! It stinks....I do have my browser set up to delete all of those things every time it quits. That way, I can just close and reopen the browser to view the different things. Hope that helps!
 
I hate that it cache's the host/show information. I'm constantly having to close and reopen my browser to test stuff.
