my action is not working after upgrade

  • In version 1.3 I had the following action, this still works in functions.php, but not working in version 2.0.1 of this plugin.

    add_action(‘wp_logout’,’go_home’);
    function go_home(){
    wp_redirect( home_url() );
    exit();
    }

    I deleted original and then created a new action but still no luck.

    Added name and description and ticked the activated checkbox, what have I done wrong?

    In 2.0.1 I disabled running any code from this plugin on login page (which is also the logout page). This is because if your code has a certain kind of error, it errors on the login page, making it so that you can’t login to fix the problem. Consequently, your logout-related action is not getting run.

    For this kind of action, I suggest putting it in the functions.php.

    Hi Michael,

    Firstly, you have obviously made a huge improvement to the plugin and I am sure that it will continue to be a great success. I perfectly understand and respect that errors MUST not cause lockouts that leave users stranded, presumably the only action that can then be taken is an ISP restore and that may not always be available or convenient.

    In my use case your plugin was used by to redirect logout, which is now not possible. If I need to place even one action or filter within functions.php I fail to reason why I would not place them all there. For the moment I feel I have no alternative but to use functions.php exclusively. But I wish you continued success with your plugin.

    Kind Regards

    To help you, I am releasing version 2.0.2 with some changes:

    1. Update to version 2.0.2
    2. Go to the Options page (dashboard page for the plugin, click the gear icon at the top)
    3. Set “Allow Execution of Actions and Filters on Login/Logout pages” to “true” and Save
    4. Edit your code and ensure that “Execute also on Dashboard Pages” is checked

    Use at your own risk.

    Hi Michael,

    I have installed version 2.0.3 and configured as per your instructions. My code is working again. |I think the ‘at your own risk’ warnings are a good idea, and enable me to continue to use your excellent plugin.

    Kind Regards
    Anwar
