Login/Logout Menu

[djslue]

I made a menu item called logout. I want that to show only when a user is logged in.
have the login only show for public people and hide when people are logged in

and hide Signup when people are logged in

[sozzled]

For the logout menu item: set the access level = Registered

For the login form: set the access level = Guest

[djslue]

Wouldn't The Registered user still see the login menu as they inherit the rights of the user hi-archery

No. Guest items are only visible to non-logged in users.

[djslue]

Should Signup also be set to "guest" is there a difference between guest and public ?

[NickC4555]

There is a difference. Guest is only visible to users who are not logged in, public is visible whether they are or not.

I changed login menu item to guest and it still shows up when I'm logged in as "Super User"

Would being Super User matter?

[djslue]

Anyone know how to do this ?

Clear your cache. When you have something as guest neither super user is see it when he/she login

[djslue]

My browser cache ? I did that and its still there.

[ribo]

Did you test it with protostar template?

No because the user hierarchy has nothing to do with the view/access levels. The User Groups only have view/access to menus (and modules) set at the view/access level the User Group has been selected in. i.e. 'Registered' is not selected in the 'Guest' view/access level therefore a logged in Registered user will not see a menu item (or module) that is set to view/access level.

Try to clean cache rly it's the best way.

Have you cleared Joomla's cache? System -> Clear Cache, select all items, click delete. Do you have any third party caching components installed. have you rechecked the permissions of your menu item? Have you, as has already been suggested, tested this with the Protostar template?

[malito]

so maybe you have any cahced plugin?
