after upgrading the Updating grey overlay does not turn off

Permalink
I have recently upgraded to 5.6 and when I log in using my admin account, the circle comes saying it is checking for updates but then goes away and the grey overlay is still there and I cannot click on anything. I have tried manually typing in the index.php/dashboard but every screen has the grey overlay

I found this thread:

disabling the overlay in the beginning, which is exactly what I needed.

We might be talking about slightly different things, but I think that's all part of the news overlay you get if you haven't logged in for 24 hours.
I like it for development and our own sites, but I think it will some confuse some clients. So to turn it off, add this line to /config/site.php
define('ENABLE_NEWSFLOW_OVERLAY', false);
