 * Hi,
 * When users are logged out, they are being redirected to the moderator’s private
   page…any fix for this? Or, how can I change the logout url to be my home page
   or something else? Thank you.

 * The logout page where users are redirected is the page you used to create the
   meeting.
 * If the first person to join the meeting was you as administrator from the administration
   panel then all the users will go back there.
 * Users (even yourself) are supposed to be using the front page for joining the
   meetings.

 * “Users (even yourself) are supposed to be using the front page for joining the
   meetings.”
 * Why? And where does it say that?
 * My users have their own multisites, the viewers should not be redirected to the
   backend after logout, it makes no sense- even if it wasn’t multisite.
 * So I take it there is no way to change this behavior?

 * >Why? And where does it say that?
    I am telling you, because I wrote the plugin
   and that is the intention! 🙂
 * It has been stated several times in this forum that this plugin was created for
   building simple landing pages like this [http://wordpress.123it.ca/](http://wordpress.123it.ca/)
   a different use you can give it is an extra.
 * >it makes no sense- even if it wasn’t multisite.
    So where are the users supposed
   to be sent? to the landing page?, to the page where the token was used? what 
   if the token was used in several pages, how can you know what page they should
   be sent?,
 * How can you even know at that point if the user has access to the page you are
   redirecting them?
 * This is the bottom line and this is why the logout page is the page used to create
   the meeting, assuming all the users have access to that page.
 * >So I take it there is no way to change this behavior?
    You can always modify
   it off course and have your own version, but you are going to need to apply your
   patch each time there is an update or keep up with any update that comes up. 
   This is the thing with the forks.
 * If this is the case just replace the logoutURL sent to BBB when the meeting is
   created. Look for the call to createMeeting somewhere in bigbluebutton-plugin.
   php and replace $logouturl with the URL you want to use.

 * Hello Sir, Thanks for participating in this forum. Is it correct syntax for changing
   the logout url: $logouturl = (“[http://google.com&#8221](http://google.com&#8221););
   or something else.
