Custom Logout Option

Hi There,

Basically my issue is on my website www.craftkeg.com , I'm trying to save space by not having a login box.

Instead I've got a HikaShop » Registration form menu item called My Account so people can log into their account/create a new one. However the problem is without having the login box on screen, I've lost the ability of having the Logout button too.

Is there a way to get to a Logout button without having the Login Box module enabled? Perhaps if I had the php it uses and just inserting it somewhere like the User control panel?

Cheers,

Matthew

Hi,

Another solution will just be to create a joomla login menu, then your customer will be able to login/logout without doing it through the login module.

Hi Mohamed,

I did consider this as an option originally. However the issue is when they login they are greeted to a blank page with the Logout button on it and would then need to navigate back to a seperate menu item to get to their User control panel.

I didn't think this approach would be the most intuative (and our research show that are targeted audience of publicans aren't the most tech savvy to begin with!)

How would a login module work if a user has to log in first to be able to see it?

Is it very complicated to add a Logout button to the Customer Account page (the first page you see when you login using HikaShop » Registration form)

I'm sorry for some reason when I read module I thought it said 'menu', confused myself there! That could work...
