# Client cannot log out

 * I have just installed and tested this plugin (without adding folders and files
   yet). It sounds promising! However, once a client has logged into his portal 
   page, it is impossible to log out. I hit the “log out” button, the page refreshes,
   but it keeps me logged in. Even after closing the window and clearing the browser’s
   cache, when I come back to that page, I am still logged in… Any idea why is this
   happening and how to fix it, please? Thanks.

 * Hi Aeniss (@aeniss), I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble using the
   plugin but don’t worry, I will work to fix this as soon as possible. Can you 
   please let me know what browser are you using and what is the Filevue plugin 
   version currently installed on your side? (You can check this in your WordPress
   plugins section) Can you please make sure to update on the latest one (1.6.5)
   and see if this is still an issue? I had a look but couldn’t reproduce the problem
   on my side. Also, if you need to send me some screenshots or have some more discussions
   around this problem, you can raise a ticket on the support platform I’ve just
   released: [https://www.filevue.app/support/](https://www.filevue.app/support/)
 * It would be also helpful if you could please create a dummy client (with no files
   attached) and share the details for me (in a private support ticket on the platform
   I’ve mentioned above) so I can take a look deeper look from my side.
 * Thank you, Lucian

 * Hi Lucian. Thank you for your prompt reply. I tried with both Chrome and Microsoft
   Edge and I am experiencing the same issue. Please see my message on your support

 * Hi Aeniss (@aeniss ),
 * Adding here some more public info in case others will need.
 * The portal page on your website was sometimes showing an old copy of the page
   after someone signed in or signed out, so it looked like nothing happened. I’ve
   fixed that in a new Filevue release (1.6.6). After you install it, sign out and
   sign in should behave normally.
 * If it still does not work after the update, your hosting company needs to turn
   off page caching for this page only:
 * Page to exclude: [https://sublimitycorp.com/client-portal/](https://sublimitycorp.com/client-portal/)
 * You can copy this to your host (ticket or live chat):
 * “_Please do not cache the page at /client-portal/ (full URL: [https://sublimitycorp.com/client-portal/](https://sublimitycorp.com/client-portal/)).
   Our client login portal must always load fresh after login and logout. Please
   exclude that URL from any full-page cache, CDN cache, or LiteSpeed/nginx cache._“
 * What you can try yourself (optional):
   1. Install the Filevue update (1.6.6).2.
   Test login and logout in a private/incognito browser window.3. If your host uses
   LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, or similar: look for “Exclude URLs” or “Do not cache”
   and add /client-portal/.4. If you use Cloudflare: ask support to bypass cache
   for /client-portal/ or use “Development Mode” for a quick test (temporary).
 * Please install the update when you receive it, then try login and logout once
   more and let me know how it goes.
 * Best regards,
   Lucian

 * Sure. Thank you again for your support. Your fix has solved the issues we were
   experiencing on our website. We’ll definitely leave a review (and possibly suggestions)
   for this plugin, as soon as we’ve been able to test its other functions. Best!
