Re: Hi need Help: How to log-out from Acl ?

Here's some sample code that you can place in an element and drop it in to views as and when needed:

<?php
if ($this->Session->check('Auth.User')):
echo $this->Html->link(
'Log Out',
array(
'controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'logout'
)
);
else:
echo $this->Html->link(
'Log In',
array(
'controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'login'
)
);
endif;
?>

I usually include this as part of my site navigation so that it is always available. You can also add links such as 'Your Details' to the logged in piece, and 'Register' to the logged out piece.
