I'm having a problem with logging out on my website. I have looked at the documentation on the parse website but it does not really provide much detail on how to log out the user, also does not help when I am not proficient with JavaScript.
When I click my log out button, it just refreshes the page and nothing more but I would like to take it back to the sign in screen.
My current script file that I have written is shown below (for obvious reasons I have removed my parse unique ids):
$(function() {
Parse.$ = jQuery;
Parse.initialize("MY CODE HERE", "MY CODE HERE");
$('.form-logout').on('submit', function(e) {
// Prevent Default Submit Event
e.preventDefault();
//logout current user
var currentUser = Parse.User.current();
if (currentUser) {
Parse.User.logout();
window.location="Sign_In.html";
} else {
window.location="Sign_In.html";
}
});
});
The section where I create the button is located here in my html file:
<form class="form-logout" role="form">
<input type="submit" value="Logout" id="logout" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg">
</form>
Add
<script src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://www.parsecdn.com/js/parse-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
to your page. Then use this script:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
Parse.$ = jQuery;
Parse.initialize("...", "...");
$('.form-logout').on('submit', function (e) {
// Prevent Default Submit Event
e.preventDefault();
console.log("Performing submit");
//logout current user
if ( Parse.User.current() ) {
Parse.User.logOut();
// check if really logged out
if (Parse.User.current())
console.log("Failed to log out!");
}
// do redirect
//window.location.replace("Sign_In.html");
// or
window.location.href = "/Sign_In.html";
});
});
