Solution 1 - Django
Modern Django (2017+?) has a setting called LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL.

You don't need to overwrite or wrap anything.
According to the docs, you can just supply the next_page argument to the logout view.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.logout
(r'^logout/$', 'django.contrib.auth.views.logout',
{'next_page': '/successfully_logged_out/'})
Solution 2 - Django
One easier way:
Add 'next' parameter to your log-out request url. For example:
<a href="{% url 'auth_logout' %}?next=/path_to_the_page"> Logout</a>
Then the logout view will do the trick for you.
For after-login-redirect, you can just simply set it in settings.py:
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/path_to_the_page'
LOGIN_URL = '/path_to_the_page'
Solution 3 - Django
Since Django 1.10, you can define a LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL (see the docs)
Solution 4 - Django
You can redirect user anywhere by using LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL in your setting.py file
LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = 'url name to redirect'
Solution 5 - Django
Redirect to current page
<a href="{% url 'logout' %}?next={{ request.path | urlencode }}">{% trans "Logout" %}</a>
Tested in Django 1.9.
Solution 6 - Django
You can even use named urls for your next parameter:
<a href="{% url 'auth_logout' %}?next={% url 'homepage' %}"> Logout</a>
Solution 7 - Django
In your logout view, after you logout the user for good, return HttpResponseRedirect(url). Please see here for more details.
Solution 8 - Django
From docs you can write your own logout view (which can be just simple wrapper) overriding the 'next' page.
Solution 9 - Django
If you want to set the redirection URL on client level, you can do it in the urls.py:
(r'^management/logout/$', 'django.contrib.auth.views.logout'),
And then in the template:
<a href="{% url 'django.contrib.auth.views.logout' %}?next=/">
Log out
</a>
Where the next, you point to the right URL.
Solution 10 - Django
If you have defined your own urls (and not imported generic auth urls) and are using the standard django auth views, them you can simply add (template_name='example.html') in the path.
path('logout/',auth_views.LogoutView.as_view(template_name='homepage.html'),name="logout")
Solution 11 - Django
add this in you project setting.py file
LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = '/'
you can write your URL between '' I use my index page for logout default redirect
Solution 12 - Django
Add the below line in your project setting.py file:
ACCOUNT_LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = '/'
