There is no built-in way for your visitors to “log out” of password protected posts once they’ve entered the password. Even logged in users cannot log out of password protected posts by logging out of their account. This plugin solves that problem by providing a link for your visitors to log out of password protected posts.
<h3>Setup</h3>
After installing the plugin, add the following code somewhere in your theme to display a link for logging out of password protected posts:
<pre><code><?php do_action( 'posts_logout_link' ); ?>
</code></pre>

Log Out Password Protected Posts

Provides a template tag for a link for visitors to log out of password protected posts.

There are 3 shortcodes that can be used:
<pre><code>[logout] - A standard Log Out link, where the user stays on the login screen after being logged out.
[logout_to_home] - A link that logs the user out, and redirects them to your home page.
[logout_to_current] - A link that logs the user out, and redirects them back to the current page/URL.
</code></pre>
Advanced Usage:
All 3 shortcodes all support 3 attributes/parameters:
<pre><code>[logout text="" class="" redirect=""]
</code></pre>
The 3 supported attributes/parameters are:
<pre><code>text=""
</code></pre>
– The text to use for the link anchor text. 
– Default: <code>Log Out</code> 
 class=”” 
– The HTML class(es) to use for the link. Multiple classes should be separated by a space. 
– Default: <code>logout</code> 
 redirect=”” 
– The path/URL to redirect the user to after they are logged out. 
– Default: the WordPress login screen. 
– Note: must be a URL or path on the same domain name as the WordPress website (cannot be an external domain/URL)
Some Examples: 
 [logout text=”Log Off”] – A <code>Log Off</code> link that logs the user out. 
 [logout redirect=”/members/”] – Log the user out, and redirect them to <code>/members/</code>. 
 [logout_to_home text=”Log Off”] – A <code>Log Off</code> link that logs the user out and redirects them to your home page. 
 [logout class=”log-out-link”] – Use a custom CSS/HTML class name for the log out link.
Note: the shortcodes will return nothing/empty if the user isn’t logged in.
