I recently upgraded to Joomla 3.8.10 (may be unrelated) and have just noticed that when logging out of the admin backend, I'm redirected to my site front end. This also triggered an admin query string exception in the admin tools log. In searching old tickets, it seems this was an issue on an older version of admin tools, and was corrected. So, maybe something else is going on?
Thanks in advance for reviewing my request,
Jason

Jason,

Yes, 3.8.10 introduced a non-backwards compatible change which causes this problem in Admin Tools. It is fixed in the latest Development Version, you can install that if the security exception is a problem. I expect a new stable release of Admin Tools later this week.

Confirmed: I have installed admin tools 5.1.3 and it seems to have corrected the issue. Thanks again for the great support.
