How To Set Specific Page Redirect On Logout From Wordpress Admin Area?

Posted by Shane on May 23, 2009 9:39 pm 1 Comment

Hi,

You can set the desired page when do logout from wordpress admin area. For that you have to modify wp-login.php core file of wordpress. Here is the code which needs to be modified:

Default:
<a href=”<?php echo wp_logout_url(); ?>” title=”Logout”>Logout</a>

Example:
<a href=”<?php echo wp_logout_url(‘$index.php’); ?>”>Logg ut</a>

This will redirect to the index page of the blog when you logout from wordpress admin area. You can set any page which you would like to be.

Thanks,

Shane G.

Shane, thanks for your post.

In my wp-login.php, the code I had to change was the last line in this code block (around line 315):

case ‘logout’ :
check_admin_referer(‘log-out’);
wp_logout();

$redirect_to = ‘wp-login.php?loggedout=true’;

to:
$redirect_to = ‘index.php’;
