Question: After pushing log out button the app is forwarding me to https://it-company-task-manager-uzrc.onrender.com/accounts/login/ But there is an empty page and after log out I'm still logged in and can do things (create task etc) I tried to solve it in different ways, but nothing changes. You can check it by yourself: https://it-company-task-manager-uzrc.onrender.com sidebar.html: <li class=""> <a href="{% url 'login' %}" class="icon"> <i class="fa-solid fa-right-from-bracket"></i> <span class="ml-4">Log out</span> </a> </li>  login.html: {% extends "base.html" %} {% load static %} {% block login %} <section class="login-content"> <div class="container"> <div class="row align-items-center justify-content-center height-self-center"> <div class="col-lg-8"> <div class="card auth-card"> <div class="card-body p-0"> <div class="d-flex align-items-center auth-content"> <div class="col-lg-6 bg-primary content-left"> <div class="p-3"> <h2 class="mb-2 text-white">Sign In</h2> <p>Login to stay connected.</p> {% if form.non_field_errors %} {{ form.non_field_errors }} {% endif %} <form action="{% url 'login' %}" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <div class="row"> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="floating-label form-group"> {% if form.username.errors %} {{ form.username.errors }} {% endif %} <input class="floating-input form-control" type="text" name="username" placeholder="Username"> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="floating-label form-group"> {% if form.password.errors %} {{ form.password.errors }} {% endif %} <input class="floating-input form-control" type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password"> </div> </div> </div> <input type="hidden" name="next" value="{{next}}" /> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-white">Sign In</button> </form> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 content-right"> <img src="{% static 'images/login/01.png' %}" class="img-fluid image-right" alt=""> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> {% endblock %}  settings: LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = "/" LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = "/accounts/login/"  urls: from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include from django.conf import settings from django.conf.urls.static import static from django.views.generic import RedirectView urlpatterns = [ path("admin/", admin.site.urls), path("accounts/", include("django.contrib.auth.urls")), path("", RedirectView.as_view(url="tasks/", permanent=True)), path("tasks/", include("task.urls", namespace="task")), path("employees/", include("employee.urls", namespace="employee")) ] + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT) 

Answer: If you're using Django 5, it's possible you're running into the same issue that is addressed in these questions:  Django built in Logout view `Method Not Allowed (GET): /users/logout/` Problem with Django class-based LogoutView in Django 5.0  Essentially, you can no longer access the built-in logout view with a GET request; you have to do it with a POST request. So, like willeM_ Van Onsem suggests in the first link above, you need to wrap your logout button in a small form: <form method="post" action="{% url 'logout' %}"> {% csrf_token %} <button type="submit">logout</button> </form>  In my Django app, a POST request to the Django-standard '/logout' endpoint will log the user out and redirect to a 'logged_out.html' template that you might already have with the rest of your registration templates (or you might be using the one that already comes with Django).
