When logging out of the backend as any backend user Sitefinity redirects to the frontend homepage of the site; is it possible to redirect to the backend log in page?

Hi Cody,

Unfortunately this is not configurable.

To change the logout link you would have to go to Administration -> Backend Pages -> (on the sidebar) Manage also Templates and there you should edit the Default Backend Template (the applies for HTML5 Backend Template). There you will see a control titled "Header". This control should be replaced with a custom one that inherits it.

public class CustomHeader : Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.Backend.Header

protected override void InitializeControls(Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.GenericContainer container)

base.InitializeControls(container);

var logoutLink = this.Container.GetControl<HyperLink>("logoutButton", true);

var issuer = SitefinityClaimsAuthenticationModule.Current.GetIssuer();

var oaReq = new OAuthSignInRequestMessage(new Uri(issuer), SitefinityClaimsAuthenticationModule.Current.GetRealm(), "/Sitefinity", true);

var backendLoginUrl = oaReq.RequestUrl;

logoutLink.NavigateUrl = ClaimsManager.GetLogoutUrl(backendLoginUrl);

To use it in the backend page you will have to register it in the toolbox.

Another solution is to add a javascript widget to the template with some code like that:

var link = $("a[href='SignOut?redirect_uri=']").first();

if (link != null)

link.attr('href', 'SignOut?redirect_uri=/sitefinity');
