   If you'd like to give the user a friendly redirect back to the topic (or forum) they were at just before they logged in (instead of the front page) simply open the login-form.php template in your theme and add this BEFORE the final </form>

   <input type="hidden" name="re" value="<?php echo "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"].'?'.$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]; ?>" />
   <input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="<?php echo  bb_get_option( 'uri' ) ?>" />

   can this be used for WP as well? seems to be a very general code, so is it just bb_get_option --> wp_get_option modification?

   WordPress has had this ability built in since 2.0 (or possibly earlier).

   Just add ?redirect_to=(url here) to any of the login/logout urls.

   ie. on your sidebar through PHP you can do it as:
   

   <a href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php?redirect_to=<?php echo $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]; ?>"> <?php _e('Login'); ?> </a>
   <a href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-register.php?redirect_to=<?php echo $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]; ?>"><?php _e('Register'); ?> </a>

   neato - very useful - thanx!

   were rebuilding our login function ATM, but ill keep this tip and add $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]; like you suggest.

   for handshake.se its not only the login fields in the sidebar, its also in the comments loop if youre not logged in...

   Nice tip..

   But how we can redirect users to a custom url after logout?
   Like I want to redirect them to google.com when they hit logout.
   Thanks

   @light just change the <?php echo bb_get_option( 'uri' ) ?> to the url you want.
