ingelogde

Ingelogde is a term that may appear in discussions about user authentication and online sessions. In standard Swedish, the usual adjective for someone who has logged into a system is inloggad, with the plural form inloggade. The form ingelogde is not part of the normative Swedish grammar and is more typical of Norwegian or Danish influence, or of direct translations from English that have not been fully adapted to Swedish spelling and usage. Consequently, ingelogde can be found in older or non-standard UI strings, bilingual texts, or as a calque in software translations.

In computing contexts, ingelogde refers to a user who has successfully authenticated and established an active session. This state typically allows access to personalized content, permissioned actions, and the use of session-based features. Systems track whether a user is ingelogde to tailor interfaces, enforce access controls, and manage session timeouts or re-authentication requirements. Security considerations around this state include secure handling of session tokens or cookies, protection against session hijacking, and proper invalidation of sessions after logout or expiration.

Linguistic note and usage guidance: for contemporary Swedish, prefer inloggad (singular) or inloggade (plural) when describing a user who is signed in. The form ingelogde may appear in historical texts, legacy software translations, or in languages closely related to Swedish, but it is generally not regarded as standard in modern Swedish. When clarity is needed for Swedish readers, use the conventional terms and reserve ingelogde for contexts where it is clearly understood as non-normative.
