Security after logout…

    Hi there,

    Thanks for such a great plugin, it’s so useful for my web/graphic design business!

    I have one question…

    When a customer logs out, pressing the back button in the browser will return them to the previous page as it was displayed, even if it’s private. Of course, when you refresh the page you’re asked to login, but this is a bit of an issue. For example, I provide login details for my clients new websites via private pages in customer area. If they view the private page with these details and then log out, someone would only have to press the back button to get hold of the private info without logging in.

    Can something be done about this please?

    Hi,

    Unfortunatly that is how WordPress works, we are simply using the standard login/logout functions.

    Is there no way that the page could be prevented from being stored in the cache or something so that the page has to be loaded from scratch every time, even if just using the back button?

    This would be so helpful…

    No way that I know of. If you find something, we’ll be happy to include it in WP Customer Area. Let us know.
