Is the basic issue you’re trying to solve that when a user is logged out on WordPress, you want them to be logged out in all WordPress sessions? [wp\_ajax\_destroy\_sessions() – Function | Developer.WordPress.org](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_ajax_destroy_sessions/)

Edit: I think you could use the logic that’s in the `wp_ajax_destroy_sessions` function to write your own function that would do the same thing. The [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin should have an action hook added to it that fires right before it calls `wp_logout`. I can get that added in the next update. You should be able to hook into that action to log users out from all sessions.
