This is a bit ridiculous.

I’m kinda pissed.

How the hell are you suppose to get “logout” link to work on Joomla 1.5?

I feel like we’re in stone age over here.

Ok, this is really simple. I would like my sites to have http://example.com/logout url. Now what does a boy have to do around here to get that?

Well I’ll tell you. Add views to joomla. This is silly and ridiculous, but I really hope it will save you some trouble.

Anyway, here it is. I attached a zip file that contains 2 files.

Download: logout.tar.gz

extract the contents to /components/com_user/views/user/tmpl

This allows you to create a menu item that will log user out and redirect them to main page of the site.

I can add more features on request.
