Jerad Gallinger commented on Setting a logout redirection page
It would be great if this feature or something like it could be added.
A use case:
Person A creates an supporter account using a shared computer. They forget to log off.
Person B then visits the nation on the shared computer. They would like to sign up as a supporter. They go to the Sign Up page, but cannot sign up because Person A is still logged in. The Sign Up form prompts the visitor to log out if they are not in fact Person A. Person B clicks “log out”.
At this point, a sensible UI flow would log out of Person A’s account and redirect Person B back to the Sign Up page so they can sign up as a supporter. On the other hand, redirecting to the homepage disrupts Person B’s experience — they have to navigate back to the Sign Up page, which some visitors won’t actually do. This loses the opportunity to convert them into a supporter.
