You can add the code into the functions.php file of the child theme, use a plugin like Code Snippets or add the code into a site-specific plugin.

Hi Luke,

The code is very much working for me, except that it is not detecting the redirect_to URL as mentioned in the Logout URL, for e.g., /wp-login.php?action=logout&redirect_to=/login/

No matter whatever value I provide in redirect_to, I am always redirected to the homepage.

Can you please sort it out?

Thanks in advance.

Perfect for me! (youpage.com/wp-login.php?action=logout)

/**

  • Generates custom logout URL
    */
    function getLogoutUrl($redirectUrl = ''){
    if(!$redirectUrl) $redirectUrl = site_url();
    $return = str_replace("&", '&', wp_logout_url($redirectUrl));
    return $return;
    }

/**

  • Bypass logout confirmation on nonce verification failure
    */
    function logout_without_confirmation($action, $result){
    if(!$result && ($action == 'log-out')){
    wp_safe_redirect(getLogoutUrl());
    exit();
    }
    }
    add_action( 'check_admin_referer', 'logout_without_confirmation', 1, 2);

Below code worked fine for me

/**
 * Generates custom logout URL
 */
function getLogoutUrl($redirectUrl = ''){
    if(!$redirectUrl) $redirectUrl = site_url();
    $return = str_replace("&", '&', wp_logout_url($redirectUrl));
    return $return;
}

/**
 * Bypass logout confirmation on nonce verification failure
 */
function logout_without_confirmation($action, $result){
    if(!$result && ($action == 'log-out')){ 
        wp_safe_redirect(getLogoutUrl()); 
        exit(); 
    }
}
add_action( 'check_admin_referer', 'logout_without_confirmation', 1, 2);

Tried this yesterday. Worked for me. Thanks!
