Users cannot logout problem

Encountered this problem.

Users cannot logout because there is a missing permalink parameter for the created logout page – example: https://website.com/logout/?_wpnonce=c4cb350d27

The correct logout page parameters should be:
https://website.com/logout/?action=logout&_wpnonce=c4cb350d27

The missing parameter is “action=logout&”

How to resolve this?

Does the Logout page exist?

Yes, the logout page exist.

It was missing a parameter in the permalink. The missing parameter was “action=logout&”.

Is the Logout page the one created by the plugin? Or did you delete it and recreate it?

Same problem here. I had to delete the plugin and re-install v6 due to the changes in version 7 (not happy with that but this is not the place for that discussions).

When I deleted the plugin the login and logout pages were removed as were all my settings.

I installed the previous version and it re-created the Login and Logout pages and I had to go through all my settings again.

But now I cannot logout, either as a user or even as an administrator. The Permalink for this is http://domainname.com/logout/?_wpnonce=35630e8fac

This used to work so I’m not sure if it’s something that was changed when I updated the plugin and it went to version 7 (would have been nice to have some sort of warning regarding the drastic changes and that I would lose all the setups I had, but again, not the place for this discussion).

So how to I fix this so I can logout?

Actually, now I can’t even login. It keeps redirecting me to the home page. The URL is http://domainname.com/login/ but it won’t go there.

I guess I have no choice now but to update to version 7 and lose all the functionality I had before unless I want to subscribe to the page redirection and themed profiles extensions.

I am definitely not happy about this. Please help me to resolve the issues with v6 otherwise I will have to join the others and leave a negative review for this once great plugin.

Refresh your permalinks.
