Mobile access ... no way to log out
« on: January 13, 2018, 11:18 PM »
Subject pretty much says it all, there's no way to log out when browsing the DC site using a mobile.

There used to be ... but only if I rotated the screen to landscape aspect, now there's nothing.

FHD, same as my computer monitor, so plenty of pixels available.

An idea, instead of "Greetings ????", perhaps just the  user name followed by (Logout) ... that's pretty much what is there on most sites I visit.

I know the site is transitioning so more a question of why something that was there and is a rather fundamental item of most, if not all, websites has disappeared.

I didn't remove it on purpose :)
I'll look into it and restore it.

I think I probably know what happened -- it's probably hiding a whole block to save space when the screen gets too small, and the logout link is in that block.  I'll find a workaround.
