Setting a custom logout page

I'd like to have users go to a different page other than the root of our application when logging out.
I am following this post here: http://cqinnovator.blogspot.com/2014/07/how-to-change-default-page-after-sign.html

I have created this: /apps/myapp/config.publish/com.day.cq.commons.servlets.RootMappingServlet, and modified the "rootmapping.target" to point to the custom HTML page.

When viewing the page via Publish instance (directly via IP) it works, but when viewing the site via Dispatcher, it goes back to the root. As far as I understand, we have a simple Author-Publish-Dispatcher configuration.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Even if you allow route access in dispatcher will unnecessarily make a load on publisher.  Please have a rewrite rule[1] in dispatcher to land user on home page to get benefit of caching & solving at web server level.

 

[1] RewriteRule ^(/)$ /your/homepagepath.html [R]

Thanks Sham HC. If I were to add another application on the same server down the road, wouldn't that impact that? I'm assuming if you add a rewrite rule on the server, it would direct all logouts to that page. Correct? Is there a way to specify per application?
