# [Plugin: bbPress] Bug with bbp_logout_url – Logout link not redirecting properly

 * I experienced trouble with the redirect parameter in logout links. I tracked 
   it down to the bbp_logout_url function. The problem is that home_url is not always
   just the base url, but can have directories as well. In the bbp_logout_url function,
   $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] is being appended to home_url (line 1074). However these
   may both contain some of the same directories. For example: home_url could return
   [http://www.example.com/wordpress](http://www.example.com/wordpress) while $_SERVER[‘
   REQUEST_URI’] could be /wordpress/page.php resulting in a redirect url of [http://www.example.com/wordpress/wordpress/page.php](http://www.example.com/wordpress/wordpress/page.php)
   rather than the correct [http://www.example.com/wordpress/page.php](http://www.example.com/wordpress/page.php)
 * I replaced line 1074:
    `$redirect_to = home_url( isset( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])?
   $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] : '' );`
 * with the following:
 *     ```
       if ( isset( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ) ) {
       			// determine what if any directories are in home_url()
       			$home_url = home_url();
       			$search  = array( 'http://', 'https://' );
       			$replace = array( '',        '' );
       			$directories = explode( '/', str_replace( $search, $replace, $home_url ) );
       			unset( $directories[0] ); // remove the base part of the url
       			$request_uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
       			foreach ( $directories as $directory ) {
       				// if a directory is found in both home_url and $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],
       				// remove it from $request_uri
       				$request_uri = str_replace('/'.$directory, '', $request_uri);
       			}
       			$redirect_to = home_url( $request_uri );
       		} else {
       			$redirect_to = '';
       		}
       ```

 * Hi,
 * I found this is a known issue logged in Ticket #1645.
 * The fix is to edit the following file:
 * bbp-includes/bbp-common-functions.php
 * Line 1074 should be changed from:
 * $redirect_to = home_url( isset( $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] ) ? $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’]:”);
 * To:
 * $redirect_to = ( is_ssl() ? ‘[https://&#8217](https://&#8217); : ‘[http://&#8217](http://&#8217);).
   $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] . $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’];
 * That fix worked for me.
 * Hopefully this will be included in the official release soon.
 * Jon
