I need to be able to redirect my users to an external web page when they log out of my portal.

Easy I thought. I create a logout page and in the advance settings of this page I use the Link Url, set the link type to URL (A Link To An External Resource) and then set the Location: (Enter The Address Of The Linl) to the address of the external Page.

Once I had done this I went to the User Settings and wanted to set the "Redirect After Logout" option to my new logout page.

BUT, the list of pages available does NOT include my new logout page and I think this is because the page has a URL and therefore it is not included in the list (I found that these tabs can be excluded by setting the URL parameter to false in the GetPortalTabs method).

OK, I thought I'll take a look at the code behind. However the page seems to be /Admin/UserAccounts and I cannot find this in my source code anywhere!

I really don't want to start amending Core DNN code as I have several environments where I would have to replicate these changes and from past experience I know how difficult this can be (especially when you accidently overwrite these change when upgrading!!!).

 

So is there an easier way of redirecting a user to an external web site upon logout?

As an addendum to this post, I have got around the issue of my logout page not showing in the "Redirect After Logout" list, by simply removing the URL. It then showed up in the list, so I selected the logout page and then reinstated the URL.

However, when logging out my portal goes to the logout page but does NOT redirect to the URL - it just remains on the logout page.

Any suggestions how I get around this?

How about placing a redirector module on that logout page? It's not the best solution, but it works.
