    the redirection using wpmem_logout shortcode doesn’t work.

    [wpmem_logout url="http://example.com/some-page/"]

    the shortcode above is on the “Other Shortcodes” page:
    https://rocketgeek.com/plugins/wp-members/docs/shortcodes/other-shortcodes/

    I’m using wp-members with “Polylang” multilingual plugin.
    for example, for english language users, I want to redirect them to english top page like:
    http:example.com/en/

    but the shortcode redirect them to non-language-spacified top page like:
    http:example.com/

    any suggestions?

    Unfortunately, that appears to be a mistake in the documentation (and the code). Even though that attribute is there, the way that the logout function processes, it will never work. I’ll look into working out a possibility in the future, but for now that method is a no go.

    To redirect on logout, you do need to use the wpmem_logout_redirect filter. Apply a conditional test in your filter function to check for the language (use WP’s get_locale() or Polylang’s pll_current_language() to check the locale) and redirect based on the result.

    thank you for the advice.
    I was able to switch redirects using the filter.
    I hope the shortcode will work properly in the near future.

    for a reference, the code I used:

    function my_logout_redirect(){
  $current_locale = get_locale();
  if( $current_locale == 'en-US' ):
    $redirect_url = 'http://www.example.com/en-US/';
  else:
    $redirect_url = 'http://www.example.com/';
  endif;
  return $redirect_url;
}
add_filter( 'wpmem_logout_redirect', 'my_logout_redirect' );
