Configurable LogOut Behaviour

Page Overview

[Hide]

1 Initial Problem

The LogOut screen provides more questions than answers.
Seriously said: It is often reported that users are quite 'lost' on this screen. Only one piece of information is shown and two options for action are offered - and these are really unimpressive. The page often leaves users with very little orientation and is very rarely styled via skin.

2 Conceptual Summary

LogOut Behavior

It should be possible to decide what happens after the logout.

  • Option A: Show LogOut-Screen (Default)
  • Option B: Show LogIn-Screen
  • Option C: Show Internal Resource
  • Option D: Show External Resource

Remarks

  • An info message is displayed which explains "You logged off from ILIAS. Your session has been closed." for Option A, B and C.
  • Option C allows you to define a Reference ID. This includes a validation of whether the target can be accessed by anonymous users. The target resource is checked when the page is called up in the administration and when an entry is saved.
  • Option D can be used to store a URL.
  • A new sub-tab "Logout Behaviour" is introduced below the "Authentication" tab.
