Answer 1

I have a same problem in Laravel 5.0. Override a method does the trick.

1) Go to app/Http/Controllers/Auth/AuthController.php 2) Add a new method :

// Override Logout method (define custom url)
public function getLogout()
{
    $this->auth->logout();
    return redirect('auth/login');  // Your Custom URL
}

Answer 2

If you don't provide the $redirectAfterLogout attribute, it will use the default which is '/'.

This logic can be found in this class: \vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers.php

public function logout()
{
    Auth::guard($this->getGuard())->logout();

    return redirect(property_exists($this, 'redirectAfterLogout') ? $this->redirectAfterLogout : '/');
}

Having said that, just add this attribute in your AuthController:

protected $redirectAfterLogout = '/afterRedirectURL';
