Change log out message from "Successfully logged you out"

[hichaminooo]

The logout screen in version 2.2.2 displays the message as follows: Successfully logged you out

This need to be fixed to You logged out successfully

[ninjaWR]

So it's not a big change, or all that important... everyone's gotta start somewhere ;)

[lloydbudd]

On second thought the new phrase although better isn't that great either. Will research further

I believe "You have been successfully logged out" would be the most grammatically correct.

I agree with this one. Either that, or: "You've been successfully logged out." Or maybe even: "You have just successfully logged out." Or something like that. Come on people, let's make up the mind here... start committing patches and stuff... =P

"You have..." is better than "You've..." is we really want to make it grammatically correct. ;)

LOL! True! Me just wants most of these tickets pushed out the door... *cough* Use Speedboxers suggestion and go with it...whee!

Change logout text to "You have been successfully logged out."

Patch 4754-you-have-been-successfully-logged-out.diff changes the logout text from "Successfully logged out." to the more grammatically correct "You have been successfully logged out."

I realize this has probably become a "bikeshed" ticket now, but isn't the "successfully" unnecessary? I have either logged out, or not.

My suggestion is short and avoids redundancy and the passive voice: "You have logged out."

[JDTrower]

I tested 4754-you-have-been-successfully-logged-out.diff and it works as intended. The Log Out text was listed as "You have been successfully logged out."

Per the comment by filosofo, I don't think the word "successfully" is unnecessary. A user typically would want to know that they were successfully logged out not just that they logged out. I think it is probably a personal preference. I think the wording "You have been successfully logged out" is much better than the current "Successfully logged you out" message.

I agree totally. It's really a personal preference as to what it could/ should say in general. *Cough* Someone make a plugin for this, to allow admins ability to add custom logout messages. =P But yes, the general user(s) would want to know that they have been successfully logged out. Not just "logged out".

Successfully logged out = (to any general user) that they logged out totally and there's no doubt THEY ARE logged out. (It wouldn't leave doubts of "if they were really logged out or not" lingering in the mind...

"You are now logged out"

[spencerp]

patch includes "You are now logged out."

[spencerp]

I added a patch that has "You are now logged out."

[spencerp]

If no one is going to do anything with this ticket, why not just delete it? I mean, seriously... =P

[westi]

(In [6566]) You are now logged out. Fixes #4754 props spencerp.
