Yii2 logout Method Not Allowed (#405)

Question

I'm using adminlte advanced template for backend. I want to add logout in the left column.

I've read other posts and I understand I've to add data method post. I've added it in following line in left.php file, but it doesn't work. How to make it work?

<?= dmstr\widgets\Menu::widget(
    [
        'options' => ['class' => 'sidebar-menu tree', 'data-widget'=> 'tree'],
        'items' => [
            ['label' => 'Logout', 'icon' => 'file-code-o', 'url' => ['/site/logout'], 'data-method'=>'post'],
    ]
    ) ?>

Answer 1

It is extending the yii\widgets\Menu and you need to specify the template to modify or add any attribute to the link as the data-method="post" needs to be added to your link you should change the code to the following

echo  
    dmstr\widgets\Menu::widget(
        [
            'options' => ['class' => 'sidebar-menu tree', 'data-widget'=> 'tree'],
            'items' => [
                ['label' => 'Logout', 'icon' => 'file-code-o', 'url' => ['/site/logout'], 'template'=>'<a href="{url}" data-method="post">{label}</a>'],
        ]
    );
