Dear Sir/Madam,

I want to set the redirect logout URL, no matter I set the relative URL or absolute URL, the plugins not allow. Please advise what the valid URL is.

Best regards,

Kelvin.

I tried to reproduce the problem on my own site and I don't have any problems inserting the same URL as in your screenshots, I'm not sure what is causing that validation error.

You can try inserting the shortcode manually rather than using the GUI, in this format:

[wpv-logout-link redirect_url="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>"]Logout[/wpv-logout-link]

Full details of the shortcode are here: https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#wpv-logout-link

Dear Nigel,

thanks for the confirmation, is it a bug? How can I troubleshoot and fix it?

Best regards,

Kelvin

Hi Kelvin,

As Nigel was able to insert the URL using the user interface fine it wouldn't be considered as a bug.

Also as he mentioned the User interface will generate the shortcode for the logout redirect, however you do have the option to add it manually like this below.

[wpv-logout-link redirect_url="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>"]Logout[/wpv-logout-link]

If you are still experiencing issues please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Dear Shane,

Yes, I can manually edit the shortcode but hope Toolset can fix the issue as not many users can know how to code.

By the way, is it possible to logout without asking confirmation and redirect to a specific page?

Best regards,

Kelvin.

Hi Kelvin,

No this a completely optional attribute so you don't need to provide a redirect URL for logging out.

Thanks,
Shane
