The RedirectAfterLogout extension is an adaption of the former RedirectOnLogin extension which allows you to redirect a user to a certain wiki page after having logged out.

Compatibility

[edit]

The extension was created for MW 1.14a. Nevertheless this extension should work fine on all MediaWiki versions which support UserLogout hook and $wgOut->redirect().

Installation

[edit]
  1. Create a page at "extensions/redirectAfterLogout.php" containing the code
  2. Add the following lines to your Localsettings.php file and adapt them:
//absolute path from web root
require_once("extensions/redirectAfterLogout.php");

//wiki page to redirect to (adjust path and page title)
$wgPageToRedirectAfterLogout = "/path_to_mediawiki/index.php?title=yourpage";

Code

[edit]
<?php
//not called from the software -> show warning
if( ! defined( 'MEDIAWIKI' ) ) {
    echo( "This file is an extension to the MediaWiki software, and cannot be used standalone.\n" );
