The sign out (log out) button is not easily reachable #1690

This is an interface usability issue. The only way I know of to sign out or log out the web interface is to click the little red arrow icon at the bottom of the left-side navigation menu, which happens to be pretty "down there" on the screen (on my 1080 pixel screen I need to scroll down), in Virtualmin or when a navigation section is open.

I would suggest having the logout button/icon in a more prominent location and size. Perhaps, as with most online services, the top right corner of the screen would make a good candidate.

Hello,

What if there was a hotkey for logging out, similarly it's implemented in MacOS, by hitting Command (⌘) + Shift + Q?

SamSirry commented 9 months ago

It would also be very productive to have a keyboard shortcut, but I never could figure out why they don't work on my Firefox (e.g. Alt+F or Alt+K).

I know a webpage can override the browser's default shortcut, but (aside from the fact that they aren't working on my browser) I can't be sure about Ctrl+Shift+Q, which is the shortcut for File->Exit on Firefox.

Have you tried using Theme Configuration page to change default modifier key from Alt to something else?

Cool! It works very well with Ctrl. Thank you for the tip ^_^

Can we have Modifier+O for Signing Out?

That would be 'Open file' in most Browsers (on Mac at least)

It could be more complex like Ctrl+Alt+[ ..

@PitWenkin, I tend to think that all modern browsers have some option to allow the web page to override special keys. Otherwise, things like a Guacamole web console or VNC wouldn't work. Right?

No matter if it would work or not, personally I think it should me a three letter combinaisonas @iliajie suggested. Not to accidentally logging out users …

iliajie commented 7 months ago

I'd prefer to have it set to Alt + [, where Alt is a default modifier and can be changed/configured. I don't think hitting Alt + [ is that easy. But I think I will make it a combined hotkey, like Alt + [ + Alt + [ ..

Alright, the hotkey for logout was added for upcoming Authentic Theme 21.10 release.

By default hotkey is set to Alt + [ + Alt + [.
