User profiles enabled, how do they sign out?
Permalink
Hey, I am setting up a website for a client and I set up member profiles but when I sign in as one of the dummy accounts I dont see any options to sign out. I searched the forum but I couldn't find anything.
Your help is much appreciated. Thanks

I think you would just need to create a link that directs to:http://www.yoursite.com/login/-/logout...
There is no good option for it.
The best way at the moment is to add a link on a page (home or login/logout) which links to site.com/index.php/login/-/logout
make it a block with permissions set so only registered users can view it, that way people only see it when they are logged in.

Thanks for the quick replies! I appreciate both of your answers and so quick too!
I just ran into another problem. I hard coded the login page and the register page and when I set the permissions so that registered users cant see the page the link stays because it is hard coded.
Maybe their is a way to add them into the autonav? When I searched for it, I eventually ran into the solution of hard coding them in.

also you can use the login block, once logged in it has a logout button
Thanks garynobles! I think I may have to go with this option.
Since when? Did they update it since I use the login block and all it has it login, after loging in it still has only login
I tried the login block and it appears to still be version 1, but I did see some fixes for it around the forum. I haven't tried them though but hard coding the links in works fine.
I just need to learn how to only show the links when signed in and when signed out. I would really appreciate if someone can help me. I just started learning php and understand if elseif and else but I dont exactly know what I should be writing. lol
If someone chimes in that would be awesome but if not when I figure it out I will update.
Thanks

Here's the code that fixed my situation.
$u = new User();
?>
<?php
if ($u->checkLogin()){ ?>
<li><a href="<?php {echo View::url('/login/logout');} ?>" title="Log Out">Log Out</a></li>
<?php
}else{
?>
<li><a href="<?php echo View::url('/login');?>" title="Login to the site">Login</a></li>
<li><a href="<?php echo View::url('/register');?>" title="Register">Register</a></li>
<?php
}
?>
Enjoy!!

<?php

Enjoy!!
This way is simple, easy and absolutely works as stated below by a few other helpful users.
I simply created a content block with a link called "Logout" and linked it tohttp://www.mysite.com/index.php/login/-/logout...
Done
