I am trying to: logout of my account but it doesn't work.

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

I expected to see: my homepage or to actually be logged out.

Instead, I got: Error 404.
hidden link

This error happens only when the wpml plugin is active, when i disable it, the logout works.

Hi,

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

Could you please check if the issue persists in a minimal environment by following these steps?

1- Deactivate all the plugins except WPML CMS, String Translation, WooCommerce, and WooCommerce Multilingual.
2- Switch to a WordPress default theme like Twenty Twenty-one.

If the issue is gone, activate them one by one to see which one is causing an interaction issue.

❌ Please backup your database before performing the above test ❌

Best regards,
Osama

I have deactivated all my plugins apart from the wpml plugins and the problem still persisted, once i deactivate the cms plugin, everything works fine and the page logs out normally.
I have created a video showing you my steps.
You can check the link below for more information.

Hi,

Thanks for your update and the video. I would need to look closely at your site, so I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP)
– preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible –
in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

Your next answer will be private, which means only you and I can access it.

❌ Please backup your database and website ❌

✙ I would need your permission to de-activate and re-activate the Plugins and the Theme and change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is critical.

✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.

Best regards,
Osama

Hi,

Thanks for the access details. I checked your site, and the logout worked correctly after the following steps:

1- Go to Users-> Profile
2- Enable the hidden languages in your profile
3- Update it
4- Go to WPML-> Settings-> Login and registration pages
5- Disable this option and save it

After that, the logout worked correctly. Please apply the steps and check the issue.

Best regards,
Osama
