What’s wrong with Framework’s community forum login system?
I log out, clear all cookies, local storage, and session storage. Then I click Log in because I want to use a different account.
Instead, I’m silently logged straight back into the previous account. No login page. No account chooser. No prompt.
Where is this account information coming from? Where is it stored? Why does logging out not actually let me choose a different account?
If this is intentional, it feels like a dark pattern. A logout should log me out, not silently sign me back into the same account. Preventing users from easily switching accounts is the exact opposite of what I’d expect from a login system.
Why was it designed this way and just how evil are you exactly ?
So many things are wrong here – even this exact "create topic" form is F’ up. I am forced to select at least 2 tags, and when i try, it says .. “Only available in the Community Support category`” … you mean the exact category i have selected right now.. ?
The forum uses Discourse’s SSO which is tied to your account on frame.work. You are most likely signed into your account on our site and it is signing you back in. We do not control that so you would need to log yourself out on both the forum and our site. If needed I can force log you out, but that is the extent of my admin privileges. If it continues to give you issues, you will need to file a ticket with Discourse’s support. As for this category, technically this post would belong in General as this is a section for community support on our products for the community to assist you on - hence why you must choose two tags, one being the product and anything else that its related to. The tags are only for this category as in they can’t be used in other categories.
SSO (Single Sign on) is all well and good, but developers seem to overlook the need for single sign OFF.
It should really be called SSOO for single sign on & off.
