I created a test account for my website and when the user is signed in the account and selects "logout" it takes me to the ".../users/logout.php" page where it displays my company logo and the "home" link; however the link is directed to the directory of where i have installed MDS script on my server.

the link takes the user back to "www.example.com/mds/"....how can I make it so the link it linked to "www.example.com"

Note: on the admin page>main config>Site's HTTP URL (address) is set to "www.example.com" whereas underneath its recommended that it be set to "www.example.com/mds"

Do I have to edit the logout.php file? if so, what area do I have to edit because I don't want to mess anything up

You can edit the logout.php file and search for this:



Replace what is inside the quotes with the link you want it to go to. In your case simply a / would work without the dots.
