wp-login.php logout with redirect no longer works when library-viewer is active

    The library-viewer plugin looks and works great for the simple list I need to display however, after installing and activating free library-viewer the login/out widget no longer logs out users if a redirect is used.
    The widget triggers a URL like the following for a logged in user but just returns to the home page without logging out the user. This can also just be placed in a custom link and still fail the same.
    https://mysite.com/wp-login.php?action=logout&redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmysite.com%2F&_wpnonce=5d154c7c4b

    If I create a custom link with a logout but no redirect then it works fine:
    https://mysite.com/wp-login.php?action=logout
    This takes me to a “are you sure you want to logout page”
    I do not have any other plugins active and I haven’t even configured the library viewer to be used in any pages. I am currently using the Pen theme but the problem is shown with other themes too.

    Hi.

    In my installation works fine.

    There is an action in my plugin that does the redirect.

    It is the “custom_login_redirect_action” public method.

    That is defined in line 190 in file wp-content/plugins/library-viewer/library-viewer.php

    Do you want to try to change method with following method

    	public function custom_login_redirect_action() {
		if( isset($_GET['action']) ) return;
		if( is_user_logged_in() && isset($_GET['redirect_to']) && !empty($_GET['redirect_to']) ){
			$redirect_url = $_GET['redirect_to'];
			if ( wp_redirect( $redirect_url ) ) {
				exit;
			}
		}
	}

    I have added only the first line.

    Is it ok now?

    Hi Pexle,
    I didn’t get a chance to try it until today.
    Looks like that has fixed the issue.
    Thanks very much for the quick response!
