Login status: The login status widget doesn't show the correct resource label, depending on the current language

Fri, 17 May 2013 06:30:14 GMT

1. Drop a Login status widget on an EN page. 2. Create another language version of the LogInText and the LogOutText labels - for example Bulgarian. 3. Create a Bulgarian page and drop a Login Status widget there. 4. If you logout from the website and view the BG page, the LogInText label will appear in Bulgarian (because you're on a Bulgarian page). However, after you refresh the page, the label will appear in the default language (EN in my case), because the CacheSubstitution control doesn't take into account the culture of the page.
