Log Joomla User out before registration with virtuemart

Hi,

I need to Log Joomla User out before registration with virtuemart.
Can this be done dynamically?

Thanks

Why would you want to do that? They will be using the same user/pass whether using the Joomla or VM login - they utilise the same db table.

Hi, I need to do that because when they use the cart I need to get some further information in relation to the cart that is not required for the joomla registration.

They can be registered in Joomla, and all that happens when they go to checkout is that they then add the extra details, such as billing/shipping address. If they are not already registered in J! then they also select username & password.

To force a J! logout you would have to make the session end, clear cookies and maybe force the browser to restart. A lot of programming and maybe annoying to shoppers.
