Bug Description
Reported on forums: https:/
When clicking on the Content/Blogs tab I get a browser error: "too many redirects".
Resetting the browser(s) settings (deleting cookies and such) didn't solve the issue.
------
This problem looks to be due to this situation.
A user has multiple blogs in their journal section but for some reason they are either missing the setting 'multipleblogs' in the usr_account_
On the page that shows the singular journal there is a check to see if user has more than 1 journal and redirects them to multiple journals page if so.
On the multiple journals page there is a check to see if the user's account preference is set to multiple blogs and if not sent them to the singular journal page.
And so we end up in an redirect loop.
What is needed is on the multiple journals page to check if we have multiple journals existing and not the user preference and if so to alert them of this fact and get them to turn on the preference in their account settings

Actually if they have multiple blogs they should get the setting automatically
