Couldn't reproduce this.

@amithadkar Do you have lastpass installed or something similar that logs you in automatically? I did and saw the same issue, but not when disabling Lastpass.

Also the issue only occurred when logging out from a page that required me to be logged in to see.

@test can't reproduce this issue on Chrome using Apache+mod_php/MySql Joomla 3.3.7dev.

I tested this on FF & Chrome - With & Without Last Pass enabled and I could NOT reproduce this error any way at all?

Yeah, for Lastpass to mess it up you must have enabled AUTO login AND be on a page that requires you to be logged in when logging out. Either way, no one seems to be able to replicate the issue (without Lastpass).

I am going to set this to information required for now to see if anyone else reports anything or provides a second report of this issue. Otherwise it will be closed in a few weeks.

YThanks everyone for testing

I have debugged the code, Print $messages in libraries\joomla\document\html\renderer\message.php in private function getData() . When i print $messages i get

Array ( [0] => Array ( [message] => Please login first [type] => message ) [1] => Array ( [message] => Please login first [type] => message ) )

I debugged the same code on another system and i get $messages as blank array. I think the reason for not getting the message must be the absence of data in the array. If message data is blank in array then also its an issue.

To reproduce the above issue please follow the below steps:
1. Open the front end of joomla
2. Login with the admin.
3. Click on "Edit Profile" page.
4. Now click on Logout button.
5. Verify the validation message.

Please refer the screenshot for every step.
1. Create menu "Edit user profile" from back end.-- Screenshot 1
2. Login on front end using "admin" user.-- Screenshot 2
3. Click on "Edit user profile menu".-- Screenshot 3
4. Click on Logout button.-- Screenshot 4

If you cannot see any confirmation message then that will also be an Issue. Either you will see two confirmation message or you will not able see any confirmation message. In both case it is an issue.

Thank you for your detailed instructions it really helped and with this
exact set up using the brochure sample data I was able to replicate the
issue.

So then I was able to see what was different with an install with no sample
data and testing data where I couldnt replicate it and this install to
track down the problem.

And I did
In the User Manager Options there is a setting
Frontend User Parameters hide/show

When they are hidden you get the error
When they are shown you dont

So that is where the problem lies - perhaps you are able to come up with a
fix now we know what is causing it and how to replicate it

I am going to edit your original post with the steps to reproduce so that people will know to change that setting

Unable to reproduce this issue.

I can reproduce this by logging out from any page that requires login to view. Here is what I think is happening.

After logging out, Joomla tries to redirect to the same page you are on, but you are no longer allowed to see that page (as it requires login). The router then somehow redirects to another page you are also not allowed to see and so you get the "stacked" messages.

I would argue that seeing even one "Please login first" message after logging out is an error. So 0, 1 or 2 are all wrong. Instead the message should be "You have successfully logged out" or similar.

I recommend that the solution is that the logout functionality checks the requirements of the redirect page before attempting to redirect to it to avoid this issue. And then simply redirect to the frontpage if the requested page requires you to be logged in.

I got the same issue. Frontend User Parameters are hidden in my setup.

I tested the problem with Joomla 3.4.4-dev and I got the error message "Please log in first" only once not twice. It doesnt matter if the Frontend User Parameters is set on "show" or "hide". Maybe it was fixed with the update?
Should the redirect to the original page get fixed nevertheless?

in this case the multiple validation message is fixed.

I got the mulitple validation message if i logout in another tab and then click on profile menu item in the logged in tab.

• Login your site
• dublicate the tab and logout
• click on Profile menu item in the first tab

Issue is still exist on 3.4.3 version.
Steps to reproduce are already as stated above.

This is a known issue with a Joomla installation using the brochure sample data. As it seems specifically related to the brochure sample data, and the sample data is being reviewed by PLT, I'm closing this issue.

Set to "closed" on behalf of @zero-24 by The JTracker Application at issues.joomla.org/joomla-cms/4784

@pe7er Kindly provide the appropriate patch and then close this issue else reopen it.

@zero-24 Please reopen this issue.

@brianteeman Kindly look into this.

@brianteeman Can you please give me update?

I can not reproduce this on 3.7.0-dev also with the brochure sample data

@zero-24 I have tested on joomla 3.6.2 and it is fixed.

Thanks for the feedback 👍
