Logout Code
By romanpitch
I have a custom index I created and I was good able to detect if a user is signed in, but I want to include a logout button on the page, and when I use this:
<?php echo elgg_view('output/url', array('href' => "{$vars['url']}action/logout", 'text' => elgg_echo('logout'), 'class' => "logoutlink",'is_action' => TRUE)); ?>
It does not work at all for me. That code works everywhere except the on the index. I also tried
<?php echo elgg_view('output/url', array('href' => "<?php echo $CONFIG->wwwroot;?>action/logout", 'text' => elgg_echo('logout'), 'class' => "logoutlink",'is_action' => TRUE)); ?>
but it also does not work, I've also tried changing action/logout to actions/logout but no luck.
Anyone know a simple code for create a text link logout? I'd prefer staying away from elgg_views if possible. Thanks everyone!!!

You must log in to post replies.Can you clarify what you mean by "does not work"? What is the intended behavior and what are you seeing instead?
Side note: avoiding elgg_view's is going to really hurt you down the line, so I strongly recommend against that approach, even though I know right now it feels like it's adding more complication to something that should be simpler.
@rp have you been hacking into the elgg core code ? the std logout code via view source is ->
if you're *not* following the stds and coding appropriately...
might be rsn why yr code in troublez..
chek the api`s and etc to figure the corect why to code this (rather simple) stuff.
