[analog kettle]

So do other users, and they do just fine asking a question and patiently waiting for a response.

[crisp trout]

[wheat crystal]

You don't put urls into {% url %} it defeats the purpose

[wheat crystal]

You gave zero information, what you expect from us? If you say it doesn't work I say make it work. If you say you tried I say try again. If you share code and error traceback - then maybe we'll have something to work with

[crisp trout]

base.html

              <a class="nav-link" href="{% url 'logout' %}">LogOut</a>
            </li>

urls.py

 path("logged_out/", LogoutView.as_view(next_page="/login/"), name="logout"),

logged_out.html

{% block title %}Logged Out{% endblock %}

{% block content %}
<h1>Logged Out</h1>
<p>
    You have been successfully logged out.
    you can <a href="{% url 'login' %}">log-in again</a>.
</p>
{% endblock %}

[wheat crystal]

405 method not allowed (what the hell is "page isn't working"? Lol)

You are trying to logout with GET method most likely, that is not allowed

[crisp trout]

then?

[wheat crystal]

You need to make a POST request, usually by making logout button a <form> submit

[crisp trout]

oh

[crisp trout]

which file i needs to add

[wheat crystal]

  <li class="nav-item">
              <a class="nav-link" href="{% url 'logout' %}">LogOut</a>
    </li>

instead of this

or make a form on logout page itself, but it's more work

You can just use an inline form and styleze button as a link

[crisp trout]

Show your urls please

Ah, wait

So which of the errors? That's different matters

[crisp trout]

from . import views
from django.urls import path
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from .views import contact_view, contact_success_view, login_view, register_view
from django.contrib.auth import logout


urlpatterns = [
    path("", views.AllPostsView.as_view(), name="home"),
    path("create_post/", views.create_post, name="create_post"),
    path("login/", login_view, name="login"),
    path("logout/", logout, name="logout"),
    path("register/", register_view, name="register"),
    path("<slug:slug>/", views.DjangoDetail.as_view(), name="django_detail"),
]

[wheat crystal]

Hm, strange you are using a built-in logout view?

It shouldn't give this error

[crisp trout]

how to fix

[crisp trout]

??

<form action="{% url 'logout' %}" method="POST">
                  {% csrf_token %}
                  <input
                    type="submit"
                    value="Logout"
                    class="my-style-for-logout-button"
                  />
                </form>

[wheat crystal]

Not sure for now, you didn't touch Django code?

[crisp trout]

ok

[wheat crystal]

Problem is in the view

What is the full traceback of the error?
