How to configure where to redirect after a log out in Django?

Question

Just wondering where I can set the url to redirect to after logout. I know you can set the login url. I want to redirect to my home page.

Answer 1

In your logout view, after you logout the user for good, return HttpResponseRedirect(url). Please see here for more details.

Answer 2

Redirect to current page

<a href="{% url 'logout' %}?next={{ request.path | urlencode }}">{% trans "Logout" %}</a>

Tested in Django 1.9.

You don't need to overwrite or wrap anything.

According to the docs, you can just supply the next_page argument to the logout view. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.logout

(r'^logout/$', 'django.contrib.auth.views.logout',
                          {'next_page': '/successfully_logged_out/'})

Answer 5

Since Django 1.10, you can define a LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL (see the docs)
