I can’t test my login… ‘cos I can’t logout (haven’t put the logout button there yet).
I was able to test it once but now I am ‘stuck’ logged in!

How come I can’t use
http://localhost:3000/account/sign_out

and I get an error No route matches [GET] "/account/sign_out"

but rake routes gives me: 

         ...
         new_standard_user_session GET    /account/sign_in(.:format)                                      devise/sessions#new
             standard_user_session POST   /account/sign_in(.:format)                                      devise/sessions#create
     destroy_standard_user_session DELETE /account/sign_out(.:format)                                     devise/sessions#destroy    new_standard_user_registration GET    /account/sign_up(.:format)                                      devise/registrations#new
             ...

and my /account/sign_in and /account_sign_up url’s are ok

    No route matches [GET] "/account/sign_out"

    You tried to access that link via a GET method, but your route is DELETE, as you’ve posted.

    destroy_standard_user_session DELETE /account/sign_out(.:format)

    So, to make that work, use the method parameter from link_to (I’m supposing you’re creating your link with link_to)

    Something like this

    link_to "Sign Out", destroy_standard_user_session_path, :method => :delete

    Best regards
