README

This Silverstripe module provides an "Exit Button" that can be included on any web page, either via the CMS using the per-page checkbox in Page > Settings, via a shortcode or programmatically.

What it does do

• provides configurable templates
• provides configurable exit URL, label and 'escape' functionality
• page-level exit support
• provides a shortcode for adding the button to any HTML editor field
• replaces the location value
• opens a configured website in a new tab

What it doesn't do

• rewrite past browser history
• invalidate a session on the site

Prior to introducing exit functionality, you should be aware of the limitations.

Implementation

1. Add the {$ExitButton} template variable in a template (see the Elemental addition to this module for an example) or
2. add an Exit Button shortcode to a relevant HTML editor field

Only add one exit button to a page in a consistent location.

Documentation

• Read the documentation page for more implementation details
