Logged out users are automatically re-logged in

What is the behavior when the user clicks the logout button from SCLogin? Does the same behavior occur?

Try with no caching enabled, specifically the System Cache plugin. This can cause oddities with authentication.

Try logging in with the standard Joomla module and see if the behavior is the same. Since you're not using JFBConnect, SCLogin is a pretty simple module and we suspect that it is something else causing this. If you disable SCLogin and use the standard Login module, it would indicate that the problem lies elsewhere.

The SCLogin module uses Joomla's authentication system to log the user in. The process is identical to using the mod_login from Joomla, so I don't know how there would be any difference between a user logging in with the SCLogin module vs logging in with the Joomla module.

Just to confirm, you are logging in using Joomla credentials and not a social network account, correct? The SCLogin module does support JFBConnect, our social authentication system, but I'm assuming you're not using that.

We will gladly test as well if you'd like. I'd ask you to setup the SCLogin module and Joomla login module on the same page, send us the URL and test account details (non-administrator). Then, we can login with each and wait for the timeout (just let us know how long that is) and see if the same thing happens. If so, we'll definitely be intrigued and help narrow it down.

Thanks,
