Try this just make sure you follow the instructions in the commented code. Place it in bp-custom.php :

/* Redirects to profile upon login, and upon logout redirects to activity page unless changed in line 6 */
function bp_help_redirect_to_profile(){
 global $bp_unfiltered_uri;

 $bphelp_my_home_page = 'activity';  // WARNING: make sure you replace 'activity' in this line to the same thing you set dashboard/settings/reading front page to.

 if ( !is_user_logged_in() && ( $bp_unfiltered_uri[0] != $bphelp_my_home_page ) ) 
  bp_core_redirect( get_option('home') );

 elseif( is_user_logged_in() && ( $bp_unfiltered_uri[0] == 'activity') )
	bp_core_redirect( get_option('home') . '/members/' . bp_core_get_username( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) . '/profile' );

}
	
add_action( 'wp', 'bp_help_redirect_to_profile', 3 );

That is a little strange. Are using mutisite? On a single site BP install the login/logout shows in the sidebar with the Meta Widget. Are you using a full width template? If so you can use this plugin to provide a login in the toolbar which I use with a full page template with WP 3.5.1 and BP 1.7.2 and it works, get it here:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-bar-login/
Please provide as much info as you can on your install. If I can’t help, it will help others to help you. Thanks!

To redirect to profile add the following code courtesy of @sbrajesh at BuddyDev to your bp-custom.php :

/*Make sure profile is default component*/
define('BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT','profile');

/*let us filter where to redirect */
add_filter("login_redirect","bpdev_redirect_to_profile",10,3);
 
function bpdev_redirect_to_profile($redirect_to_calculated,$redirect_url_specified,$user)
{
if(empty($redirect_to_calculated))
$redirect_to_calculated=admin_url();
 
/*if the user is not site admin,redirect to his/her profile*/
if(!is_site_admin($user->user_login))
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID );
else
return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin or not logged in,do not do anything much*/
 
}

For logout use the following code also courtesy of @sbrajesh to redirect back to your home url:

add_filter('logout_url',"bpdev_logout_url",100,2);
function bpdev_logout_url( $logout_url, $redirect) {
//simply ignore the redirect and set it to the main domain
//let us check for buddyopress,if yes,let us get the bp root domain right ?
if(function_exists("bp_core_get_root_domain"))
$redirect=bp_core_get_root_domain();
else
$redirect = get_blog_option( SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE, 'siteurl' );

$args = array( 'action' => 'logout' );
if ( !empty($redirect) ) {
$args['redirect_to'] = $redirect;
}

$logout_url = add_query_arg($args, site_url('wp-login.php', 'login'));
$logout_url = wp_nonce_url( $logout_url, 'log-out' );

return $logout_url;
}

Still didn’t work. Available here: http://pastebin.com/ZtFWhqyg

Well that code bit got mixed up, let’s try that again:

`<a href="” title=”Log out”>`

Hi Patty-

Have you tried using `home_url()` instead of `site_url()` like the example on the Codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_logout_url#Logout_and_Redirect_to_Homepage

I use this on my site and it redirects to the home page:
`<a href="” title=”Log out”>`

-David

you can include a hard coded link https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_logout_url

@modemlooper that didnt work… It said I had an error.

replace text URL-after-logout with a url

@modemlooper for this code:
`add_filter(‘logout_url’, ‘my_filtered_logout’);
my_filtered_logout($logout_url, $redirect) { return “URL-after-logout”; }` where do I put the URL where I want members to get redirected to?

Only plugin that is active is Buddypress. Installed BP FriendPress, same issue. Once I logout, I get a redirect that goes no where and the screen is blank.

Then, if I open a new window and go back to domain.com, it still shows me as logged in.

I then opened a different browser, and went to domain.com. I put in my login info and tried to login. I again go to a blank white page, sitting at http://domain.com/wp-login.php

If I refresh the page on the 2nd browser, it takes me back to domain.com/register

Strange!

You can also filter logout link. Place this in bp-custom.php or your themes functions.php

`add_filter(‘logout_url’, ‘my_filtered_logout’);
my_filtered_logout($logout_url, $redirect) { return “URL-after-logout”; }`

Anywhere you want a logout link you can place the code. Header.php will show on everypage

home_url() is the site you’re on main page. If you want another URL use code below and put in URL you want

`<a href="” title=”Logout”>Logout`

`<a href="” title=”Logout”>Logout`

hello,
view here:https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_logout_url
and here for inspiration
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/15049/buddypress-redirects-on-login-and-logout

== I got this two login forms and link to registration page on two side bars ==

Open up one of your sidebar templates and remove the login form. Looks strange to have two.

== how can I redirect this I mean logging out in any shape or form to redirect to registration page. ==

WP Codex is your friend https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_logout_url

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-login-redirect/ can redirect to 3 different locations after login. 1. Personal Profile / Personal Activity Page 2. Site wide Activity 3. Friends’ Activity

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/login-with-ajax/ this plugin’s settings allows you go to any particular page OR to the current users particular page on login & on logout if you use %USERNAME% — its on the settings page

To elaborate on what @DJPaul said – BP uses WP’s logout, which is handled by wp-login.php. In particular, a request is sent to wp-login.php?action=logout, with a redirect_to argument of the current BP page.

I’m not sure why the activate page is still there as the email now has an automated link but I have figured a way to rectify this! Just install a wp redirection plugin and forward the activate page to whatever URL you would like! I also would recommend using the the login logout redirect plugin!

I’m having the same problem as @mwbarker

It’s all the latest updates. I run my live site with w3TC, have disabled cacheing for logged in users, but still having this problem.

My localhost test site has W3TC disabled, and it’s no problems. I guess I’ll have togo through all settings one by one until i find out what’s causing this.

<– Edit.

Ok, this is weird….
I believe this has to do with “Page Cache” settings.

I disabled Cache home page (now, I can loign/logout no probs)
Selected “Don’t cache pages for logged in users”

Now, as a test, I visited a few of my pages, log out, no probs. Stay logged out.

Now, if I visit a page, say “About”, if I login on that page, I can logout, visit the homepage, I’m logged out, but if I visit that page again, it shows me as logged in. When I try to logout of “About”, it send me to the:

http://mywebsite.com/wp-login.php?action=logout&redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite.com&_wpnonce=bb1shsjskdd (nonce verify page)

Very odd.
