Logout link without going to login page

    I’m using this code for users to logout

    <a href="<?php echo wp_logout_url('/redirect/url/goes/here') ?>">Log out</a>

    But the problem is that it will first go to the login page, then only redirect to the specified URL. How to make it directly logout + redirect to the specified URL without going to the login page?

    It is kinda impossible unless you make the linked page call the wp_logout() function. My suggestion would be to make a GET argument that logs the user out and then add it to the end of the link.

    I just made an quick example/POC:

    function logout_on_get_argument() {
    if(isset($_GET['logout'])) {
        wp_logout();
    }
}

add_action("init", "logout_on_get_argument");

    Please update us on how it is going. And change the status to Resolved, if my answer worked.
