How do you log out???

peteed · Nov 2015

So my account wouldn't log in with the new forums so I tried resetting password but no email came so I made this new account to ask about it but then saw that the email system is down.

Now I can't log out of polycount since theres no logout link visible. Normally theres a logout word thats a logout link on websites.

Account options. Next to the polycount smile thing at the top.

Ahh 2 step hidden logout

they are horrible haha.

I tried hitting quote and for some stupid reason trying to quote starts making a new thread instead of quoting you. Very bad bug lol.

I'm on mobile and can't log out - I can view my profile, but don't see a log out option there, and I can't see or scroll to the right of the polycount smile in the drop down options. Is it different for the mobile site? I'd rather not leave my phone logged into my account indefinitely.

1. Scroll all the way to the right.
2. Tap the button at upper right with three horizontal lines in it. (the so-called "hamburger" menu).
3. Tap the "head and shoulders" button.
4. Scroll to the bottom.
5. Tap on Sign Out.

Sorry it's a multi-step process. This is how Vanilla Forums has set up their interface, and we can't easily change it.

@Eric Chadwick Thats how you'd do it on pc with the exception of the "head to shoulder" button is 1 step easier to reach, but actually I also don't see a sign out option on my phone there. Android phone, chrome browser.

I'm on my Android+Chrome phone right now, and this works,

Can you please share a screenshot for which of my 5 steps is a fail on your device?

The sign out button isn't there:

Step 4 ... you need to swipe upwards on View Profile.

If I was better at CSS, I'd try to fix this.

Ah... I see now. So basically this menu has a button that isn't visible after clicking the "head to shoulders" icon and you need to scroll once more. After that, the sign out button shows up on the bottom of this list menu.

What do you want changed? I MAY be able to help....
If you just want the menu items to be visible, you should just be able to add:
.navbar-collapse{
overflow: visible;
}

BTW, the search icon is broken. Didn't notice until I was up looking for a logout button

Well here's a universal way to log out no matter what site you're in, in case you ever run into some shitty scammy website.

Same process with Chromium,
