For sites using Single Sign-On (SSO), logging out can sometimes immediately restart the login process. Enabling a logout confirmation page prevents this by showing users a confirmation screen after they log out, stopping the SSO login loop.
How it works
- Clients with SSO enabled can log out without automatically triggering the SSO login cycle again.
- When the logout confirmation page is enabled:
- Users see a confirmation page after logging out.
- The confirmation page interrupts the SSO redirect.
- This prevents continuous looping between login and logout.
This is especially useful for environments where identity providers automatically reauthenticate users.
Enable the logout confirmation page
To enable this feature, follow these steps:
- Go to Admin
- Select Settings
- Open System settings
- Click Security
- Locate and enable the Logout page option
Once enabled, the confirmation page will appear whenever users log out.
