Plugin adds a Log Out on admin toolbar?

    Why does this plugin add a Log Out on admin toolbar?
    I don’t understand the logic, it’s on the left top… which not only is in the wrong place but not needed when by default it exists already on the user section.

    If I deactivate this plugin on any of my sites, it removes that “Log Out” which clearly is being added by this plugin but I don’t see an option to stop it. Any ideas anyone?

    This is a great plugin, but it’s now causing me problems with a new client asking why I’ve added a log out where normally they click to view the site when logged in (I do the same), it’s a VERY bad UI.

    Can we please ask it’s removed, or an option to remove it.
    I can provide proof of this bug on request to the author.

    It’s not a bug; it’s by design. That said, it was an issue because of an accessibility problem in WordPress that was resolved in version 6.5, (Ticket #34668) so I can release an update that removes it if you’re using 6.5 or higher. For earlier versions, however, it’s an important option.

    Thank you for your prompt reply and I look forward to having an option to turn that off, as ironically it’s causing accessibility issues for me, and my client… accidently clicking on it to view the site as it’s in place of the normal view site link, hence me saying it’s bad UX/UI.
