Hi there,

I am trying to use

<a href="http://{path=logout}">Logout</a>

but it’s not logging me out.

The URL it’s creating is ?ACT=17

Thanks in advance for your help.

Simon,

Try using caps in there

<a href="http://{path=LOGOUT}">Log out</a>

Are you using a htaccess file?

Are you logged into the control panel at the same time?

Thanks John,

Your questions were helpful.

It look like it’s my .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on 

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond $1 !^(images|system|themes|favicon\.ico|robots\.txt|index\.php) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]

I’ve hacked it by hardwiring the logout link thus:

<a href="http://{site_url}index.php?ACT=17">Log out</a>

This works but is it reliable?

Also, I find that my .htaccess file prevents me from using session ids for member tracking.

Thanks,

L.

Hi, Loquela.

Unfortunately we can’t officially assist in troubleshooting .htaccess problems with removing index.php.

If you rename your .htaccess file and put back in index.php, do things work as expected? If they do, I can move this over to the Community Help forum for additional community support..
