Adding Sonja for her feedback. This is another one that could potentially have its UI condensed as part of #10464.

Agreed with Ray about disabling the feature for group blogs (or perhaps renaming it "leave group and blog" in this case). IMHO it's OK to have the feature turned on by default; while I can imagine cases where admins might want to prevent users from leaving sites, that's likely to be a small minority of the overall cases. So opt-out for the admin seems OK to me.

We should surface this option in the 'My Sites' list on a user's profile and the subsection 'My Sites' within the Sites Directory.
I consider this option a secondary action (an action that doesn't need to be performed very often but needs to be available) and in order to not clutter the UI, I would recommend to work with a UI pattern as explored in #10464. We could put "Follow/Unfollow" and "Remove Site" under the dropdown menu.

Once a user clicks "Remove Site" a confirmation popup / screen should come up to explain what removing yourself from a site means.

For sites where the site admin disables this feature, we should not surface the option.

Thank you, Sonja — looks good to me!

I've implemented a first pass at the Overflow menu with the "Leave Site" button in https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/compare/2432c5f...a075ddd

This can be tested on the development site by logging in and either navigating to:
- "My Account > My Sites" under the sticky toolbar on the top right-hand corner
- the Sites Directory at commons.gc.cuny.edu/sites/ and clicking on the "My Sites" tab

You can only leave sites of which you are not the sole administrator of and are not connected to a group.

For those testing, I can add your account to another site as an author so you can test this functionality. Or if you have another test account on the dev site, you can add that user as an author to one of your sites and then login as that test account to try out the Overflow dropdown and the "Leave site" functionality.

It turns out we already had a "Leave Site" link as evidenced in a previous screenshot. So what I did was move that functionality into a button and implemented the Overflow menu (#10464).

Getting the Overflow menu to only show up within the 'My Sites' tab on the Sites Directory proved to be a little tricky, but that's done!

I still need to implement an option in the wp-admin dashboard so site admins can disable the "Leave Site" button if they need to enforce membership. I'll implement this in the next day or so.

One other thing I forgot to mention is when a user leaves a site, the site admin will receive an email about this.

The following is the email contents:

Subject line: "[{SITE NAME}] A user has left your site"

Email content:

Hi,

{USERNAME} has manually left your site:
{USER PROFILE URL}

You are receiving this email because you are the administrator of the site, "{SITE NAME}":
{SITE URL}

We can fine-tune the email or remove it altogether if this is deemed too intrusive.
