    I just downloaded WP-Members today. I really like the plugin so far, but I can’t get the logout to redirect to the homepage. I followed the code below given by you, Chad, in your instructions. The login portion worked, but the logout did not. Any ideas what could be the problem?

    add_filter( ‘wpmem_login_redirect’, ‘my_login_redirect’, 10, 2 );

    function my_login_redirect( $redirect_to, $user_id ) {
    // return the url that the login should redirect to
    return ‘http://www.ataitec.net/’;
    }

    add_filter( ‘wpmem_logout_redirect’, ‘my_logout_redirect’ );

    function my_logout_redirect()
    {
    // return the url that the logout should redirect to
    return ‘http://www.ataitec.net’;
    }

    The plugin’s logout links already direct the user to the homepage. So if the logout is directing somewhere else, then that link isn’t generated by the plugin; in which case the wpmem_logout_redirect filter has no control over it.

    You can use logout_url to filter the link, the second argument is a redirect url.

    There is also a setting the Advanced Options extension available to support subscribers that allows you to set this along with a number of overrides of WP defaults.

    I tried logout_url to filter the link and it did not work. I used this exactly:

    add_filter( ‘logout_url’, ‘my_logout_page’, 10, 2 );
    function my_logout_page( $logout_url, $redirect ) {
    return home_url( ‘/my-logout-page/?redirect_to=’ . $redirect );
    }

    Should I have added a specific link in there somewhere? Please understand I am a novice here and don’t really understand CSS.

    Considering that this is not CSS but PHP, I’m wondering where you put this filter? It should go in your theme’s functions.php file.

    I put it in the Child Theme’s functions.php file.

    Sorry… I should have looked at specifically what your return url was in the filter as you applied it.

    Try it this way:

    add_filter( 'logout_url', 'my_logout_page', 10, 2 );
function my_logout_page( $logout_url, $redirect ) {
	return add_query_arg( 'a', 'logout', home_url() );
}

    That did the trick. Thanks.
