Hi guys,

Maybe this can be a strange request. :)

When I do the backup of database (from MyPhp Admin Panel), I want to deny any activity of registered users, in order to have a correct backup.

If I see they are logged, I want to deny (for example) writing or editing articles, etc.

On Joomla 3.x there was an easy way to do this.

I attach a screenshot that shows a X near account name. Clicking on X, user was immediatly logged out.

I don't fint the same on Joomla! 4.x or Joomla! 5.x

Please, can somebody help me?

Thank you in advance.

Marco

Hi Marco,

Please have a look at my screenshot - it shows the same.
You can only log out users from the front-end of the site, not from the back-end (administration area).
Or at least I do not know how to log out other Admin users. You might want to ask in the official Joomla forum.

    Hi Marco,

    It is there, the "Logged-in Users" module (see the attached screenshot).
    If you do not have the module in your Dashboard, you can add it with the "Add module to the Dashboard" button.

    Hi Ivo.

    This is not possible for me, because every user are logged in as admin (they write and edit articles using the backend), asi you can see in the image that I attach on this message.

    Hi Ivo,

    Understood.

    That's not a big problem. When I have to do a backup, I will write them to logging out.

    Thank you very much.
