Creating Custom Log Out page in SharePoint 2010/ 2013.
Hi friends,
This post is about how to create Custom Log out page in SharePoint. This customization is required when you implement FBA ( Form Based Authentication) or Mix mode authentication in SharePoint. When FBA is implemented with custom Log-in, it does not clear authentication Cookies automatically so to clear authentication cookies we need to do some customization. This customization is done using custom logout page where some block of java-script code is written:
This block of code also helps to prevent error while logging out using FBA.

This post is about how to create Custom Log out page in SharePoint. This customization is required when you implement FBA ( Form Based Authentication) or Mix mode authentication in SharePoint. When FBA is implemented with custom Log-in, it does not clear authentication Cookies automatically so to clear authentication cookies we need to do some customization. This customization is done using custom logout page where some block of java-script code is written:
This block of code also helps to prevent error while logging out using FBA.
Following steps are carried out while creating custom log
out page in SharePoint with
1.
First Create a logout.aspx using SharePoint
Designer
è
Open your site using SharePoint designer-> Go
to site pages->click on Page button on top ribbon and select ASPX page.
è
It will create an aspx page in site pages rename
it to Logout.aspx
è
Double click on page, it will open page
designer, Check Out the page and click on edit file link to open in edit mode.
è
Add page title to: Lout out
è
Add bellow Script in <head> section:
<script type="text/javascript">
function LogOutBodyOnLoad()
{
try
{
/* Note : this command is
support with only IE */
document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache",false);
window.close(); // It asks to
close browser after logout.
}
catch (e) { }
window.location='/_layouts/signout.aspx'; //
Redirects to sign out page of SharePoint.
}
</script>
è
In <body> section change as bellow:
<body onload="LogOutBodyOnLoad ()">
è
Check in your Logout.aspx page after performing
above changes.
è
Next you need to call this Logout.aspx on click
of Log out button on Welcom.aspx page that is master page of your site.
è
Before change master page you need to check
which master page is used by your application to check it go to Site
Action->Site setting-Look and feel->Master page. It will show you which
master page is used in your application.
è
Go to SharePoint Designer -> click on master
page in left navigation -> take copy of your master page. If you are working
in SharePoint 2013 then you will get ( oslo.htm, oslo.master, seattle.html and
seattle.master). Open only ( .html) page in designer and add below script on
head section of master page which your application is using. ( check out your
master page before editing )
<script type="text/javascript" src="/_catalogs/Scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" >
$(document).ready(function(){$("#zz4_ID_Logout").attr("onMenuClick","STSNavigate2(event,'/Site
Pages/Logout.aspx');");});
</script>
è
Add jquery fie to _catelogs/Scripts using
SharePoint designer. If script folder does not exist in _catelogs crate it and
add jqury file in it. Check proper version of jquery file with the master page
tag. Jquery file is added in _catelogs
using SharePoint designer.
è
If you are using SharePoint designer then Id of
Logout control may be different, it may be zz3_ID_Logout or zz4_ …. So to get
right ID login to your portal and check Source of page, Search for Log out and
get right control ID. Replace control ID in Master page’ javascript tag with
the right one.
è
That’s it now you can login in to your portal
and can identify title of log out page after clicking log out button. This
could is mainly written to clear authentication cookies after logout.
That's it.. Fell free to ask any question regarding this post.
Happy Coding
