[SOLVED] LogOut Error Fixed

[vAx]

I noticed when trying to logout using Opera or Firefox you get a blank page with some text saying Click here to logout or something like that, but it doesn't go anywhere.

To fix it go to login.php and replace the following on line 32:

// if user requests to logout
if(isset($_GET["op"])){
if($_GET["op"] === 'logout') {
//$current_user->Logout($_REQUEST['return']);
$current_user->Logout(header("Location: index.php"));
}
}

Pligg 9.7 is here! Nice!

this saves alot of hassle with admin pages.

for example if an admin logs out it redirects them to the admin page where they get "some error message" and people will think it's a bug not letting them logout but it simply redirecting to the admin page as a anonymous user.

I just installed 9.7 and I can't log out of my admin account using IE7. I tried the fix above and not only did it not fix the problem, but when using Firefox and a normal account it just went to a blank page. I'm assuming the fix above must be for 9.6, so I removed it.

Anyone else having a problem logging out of the admin account with 9.7 using IE7? I might be having the same problem with regular accounts, but I can't log out to test it (haven't tried deleting my cookies yet).

Yes. Me, too, with 9.8.2. Exactly as you described.

I encountered the same problem with redirect after logout using Firefox (stuck in a loop on blank page). This worked for me, but I only installed Pligg today, so ignore me if this solution is off the mark.

libs/html1.php
line 416 and line 487
change

If ($x == "logout") {return my_pligg_base."/login.php?op=logout&return=".$var1;}

to:

 If ($x == "logout") {return my_pligg_base."/login.php?op=logout&return=index.php";}

There's probably a better way!

for 9.9 I just changed line 424 and it works

If ($x == "logout") {return my_pligg_base."/login.php?op=logout&return=" . $var1;}

to

If ($x == "logout") {return my_pligg_base."/login.php?op=logout&return=" . index.php;}
