destroy session then set flash data

[quote author="NZmuzzer" date="1229220857"]I have a very similar problem. Using v1.7 session class with database. When the user logs out the session record (database row) is removed and a new one created for the now logged out (guest) user. A flashdata messeage is then set, "You are now logged out", and the page redirected to the homepage.

Code:

function logout()
    {
        $this->wd_auth->logout();
        $this->session->set_flashdata( 'notice', '<p>Welcome, you are now logged out</p>' );
        redirect( 'homepage' );
    }

Try changing function logout() to this...

Code:

function logout()
    {
        $this->ci =& get_instance();
        $config =& get_config();
        
        // delete user record from session table
        $this->ci->db->where( 'session_id', $this->ci->session->userdata( 'session_id' ) );
        if( $query = $this->ci->db->delete( $config['sess_table_name'] ))
            return FALSE;
        
        // destroy the session
        $this->CI->session->sess_destroy();
     $this->session->set_flashdata( 'notice', '<p>Welcome, you are now logged out</p>'
        return TRUE;
    }
